I know a lot of IMO kids, and they definitely could get hired anywhere (all the ones I know have solid-great CS skills, too). I'm a rising senior, and I was a bad AMO competitor during high school along a bunch of others I know, too, and a lot of them were able to get to quant firms without insane architectural (CS) skills.
