Same. Worse is when they ask open-ended design questions. Like "How would you design 1-hour shipping?" which I was asked. I've done many, many new product designs and the process is deliberately meant to take weeks. I have, in real life, been asked to design a system on a 45-minute call and my professional answer was "no". I have no idea if they're looking for brainstorm, process, architecture or my ability to question. But honestly it's not enough time for even one of those.
