There are jobs for CS that care about other traits.

System design, user interface design, HCI, software engineering (methodologies, management, architecture), infrastructure, etc that don't lean as heavily on the algorithmic side of CS as they do other aspects.

I know that while interviewing where I work, a candidate's attitude and enthusiasm for programming are much more important to me than their ability to solve some riddle in half an hour. It's not the solution I'm looking for, it's how they get there.
