If a CS degree just let you invert a binary tree and do convoluted SQL queries, then arguably it is a quite poor CS degree. Maybe some interview questions/exercises are, as often, let's say not perfect. Or maybe they are good enough for most candidates but the people asking them are failing to see other competencies when somebody fails at boring / specialized tasks but could bring value in other ways.
