Overall not encouraging. The recruiter called a few times, gathering the same details. After a few weeks of back-and-forth communication, a phone screening was scheduled. The interviewer started asking system design questions borrowed from a book. When he was not satisfied with the explanation, he wrapped up the call.

Design Parking Lot. This was asked in a phone screening. A few weeks later, I learned this problem is from an interview preparation book. Seriously? Can't they come up with any realistic questions based on a candidate's experience, rather than borrowing questions from a book?
