If you and your coworkers are solving the problem you posted "day in and day out" just hire me and you can get rid of them :)
You are right though I have no evidence they are contrived other than your example problem. The unrealistic working conditions though is indisputable, do you typically relay your google search's for syntax through your boss? Do you often work under extreme time pressure on problems you have never seen before? Perhaps you do, but I can tell you with certainty that it's not the norm in the industry to work in that way.

Not the guy you responded too, but is there a good way to avoid a time pressure?
A limit has to be set as to the time spent per candidate from the company's pov.
