In my experience in finance it's all about the interviewer showing the interviewee how smart she is.
There's smart quants/programmers/traders/etc and people good at solving brainteasers. You need the former, but people who use brainteasers in the interview process typically only find the small sliver of overlap in the venn diagram.
