As someone who did a lot of interviewing at Google I can say your interviewer didn't do his job and that definitely should not be the usual experience.

That said how are questions about "netstat" and the "expected output of dig" programming questions?

Also for anyone planning to join Google as a sysadmin you should note that even Google's sysadmins do a fair amount of code since Google loves automation. Python will probably figure fairly prominently in your job.

those questions were not the programming ones, I don't remember the programming ones, but they would be considered pretty tame by most programmer standards, I simply lacked the knowledge at the time..
