What year was this? Google mostly stopped asking these sorts of "you gotta know it to get it" questions a while ago. Probably different if you're a file systems expert, but I'm guessing that's not the case?

It was at least ten years ago. Hope you're right they've fixed this, because it soured me on even talking to their recruiters for years.
This was for a management position in an area where even the engineers on the team wouldn't need specialist file systems knowledge. The recruiter got incredibly frustrated when she got my feedback not just on that question but the entire set.
