I don’t know about asking a coding question in-person, but I think it would work well for “take home” interview questions.
If you’re really interested in a company, but they insist you do a take-home problem, perhaps you could insist that they do a take-home of your design, as a fair trade. This would actually be a great way to see what the coding practices are like at the company, assuming they don’t take the request as an insult.
