> FYI I wouldn't know how to do fibonacci sequence because I don't know its definition

OP here. As I said, "I give the solution away".

I basically tell the definition/formula at the beginning, and give examples and test cases for you to check your results against.

I also help people along, like I would in pair programming.

A lot of people still fail. Some with allegedly 25 years of experience. Luckily this is at the beginning, so I don't have to spend the whole interview with them.
