When doing an interview at Google in C, I asked if I could assume I had a hashtable implementation with so-and-so interface, and the interviewer said no ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This depends on the question but I assume that in this case the interviewer wanted a different solution than one using a hash table.
Ouch. Well, most hashtables in C are custom, I guess.
