I've been a professional dev for about 15 years now. A few years ago, I failed a job interview because I was not good enough at designing a "basic" database schema. I'm a bit better at it now, but not much (most of the schemas I've been designing still are very very basic)
The field of computer science is HUGE - you can't be expected to know everything - and that's ok !

But that means you have to be able to keep learning, and so you must be able to say "I don't know how this basic thing works".
And in order to be able to say that, you must not be mocked for what you don't know ...
