Oh man. The interview process is grueling, especially all-day interviews. It's heartbreaking spending so much time preparing and going through the hoops to have this outcome.
I honestly hope white board interviews die a fiery death. They are a poisonous practice to interviewers.
But honestly you're not alone. I have anxiety and when I'm asked to step in front of a white board, in front of strangers who know nothing about me, for them to silently judge me, I shut down mentally and physically and might as well walk out at that point. lol. Keep your head up, and keep practicing. Thanks for sharing your story, it will help others. :)

I'm so glad our whole team basically agreed on the uselessness of whiteboard interviews. I'm pretty proud of our interview process, @jess .
careergoals 😍
