A rather tired conversation in my opinion. Everybody likes to complain about interviews, but every single alternative I've heard is even worse:
Take-homes are biased toward those willing to work hours for free, a "track record" is biased toward those who inflate their resume, a casual conversation is biased toward the likable and native english speakers, high-level whiteboarding is biased towards people who are good at whiteboarding
