Total of 5 whiteboard coding interviews with a combination of seasoned and noob interviewers. One misread the code and asked to write the entire control flow with a test case explaining each step and wasting a lot of time just to find that there was a code misread. One interviewer had communication issues; they wanted to ask a problem that required a mathematical proof with which it would have been trivial, but later upon discussion it came up that it can be assumed, which seemed weird. One interviewer was googling Java 8 syntax most of the time and were fine with the solution; no extensions asked. 2 others were great interviewers, provided hints at the right time and asked meaningful extensions.
