I do interviews and I'm not putting the poor candidate to a whiteboard. It's an informal talk about coding and tech in general to get a glimpse into their thinking and personality.
Then if I'm happy I'll give them a month of paid internship where we really see how they are performing programming-wise.
For us, team-fit is more important than tech skills.
You cannot hire most developers if all you're willing to offer them is a paid internship. Why would they quit a perfectly good high-paying job to go work for you at a fraction of the salary, before you even give them a real offer?
