Amazon asked me to implement a hashtable and email the interviewer the solution by the next morning.

I politely declined; was heading off to Spain for a long weekend.

IMO that's not a good interview question even f2f, let alone on email. As an interviewer I would learn nothing from that, and I agree it's unreasonable to give an interviewee homework.

As far as I know, that is not SOP for FANG interviews.
