So you could write an algorithm on whiteboard that is close enough to be something that "should"work but if you write the same thing as an actual code in laptop then it may not necessarily run or may be buggy..in which case then the candidate should spend time fixing the bugs and figure out what the problems are.
So does it also sound to you that it would be more advantageous for the candidate to always pick the whiteboard because he/she will not be expected to run the code...?
The onsite interviews require you to complete your solution within the allotted one hour of the interview (whiteboard or laptop).
