It's an IQ test.
It measures cognitive intelligence. Does it predict overall success? No.

For the dp problem, you need to have experience with dp problems, experience with general algorithm problems (from the acm-like programming challenge side specifically), and generally be good at applying those in new situations. Unless that's your actual previous work, it doesn't measure intelligence in any way.
Best know doesn't mean good. Any occupation also fails:
> for minimally-skilled activities, athletic strength (manual strength, speed, stamina, and coordination) are more likely to influence performance.
