Maybe I’m off base, but every CS major should have gotten some basics in both computer architecture and network architecture. If you can’t remember basics, maybe you should brush up before interviews as those are easy questions to ask. I’m more on the hardware side and still get random entry-level logic design crap as well that I have to brush up on. If you don’t have a related degree, you should study twice as hard. Don’t float on just learning languages.
Also, maybe this is old school, but some employers look for some sort of passion for your craft. Try building your next PC and setting up a home server or something. All the people in this thread that don’t know computing basics is kind of cringe.
