I've used trees for data, but never had to invert one.

TBH asking that kind of question at interview is a big red flag for me, means that they don't understand how to interview tech people and therefore probably don't understand how to manage tech people.

This means Google and others don't understand how to manage tech people... which I guess it may be true.

Large organisations almost universally don't understand how to manage tech people. HR get in the way and force bad decisions onto even the good managers.
