During a software engineering interview, you need to be able to write code on a whiteboard. During too many interviews, at multiple companies, I've seen candidate after candidate struggle to write simple code on the whiteboard. Many of these candidates are decent people, with CS degrees, Master degrees , "years or experience", "senior developer" titles, etc... Yet they cannot write 10 lines of correct code on a whiteboard.

Implausible.
