Is it just our industry where you have to prove you aren't a complete impostor every time? Basically we treat every applicant like they are Frank Abagnale [0].
A senior role should be focused on more overall system and performance aspects of the software, using good practices.
What does writing out a solution for fizzbuzz (or equivalent) prove during an interview? If they do it easily do you suspect they memorized it (our base assumption seems to be they are an impostor right)? If they fail, do they fail the interview?
In the real world if you had a database call in some recursive loop that would be bad for performance. The number of times I jump to using recursion in a solution is near zero.
