65 Job Interview Questions So Bizarre, You Won’t Believe They’re Real
Me: “Forsure, I would be able to explain that to a 5 year old and they would comprehend it because my nepehew just learned to write his name”.
Bf just started a new job today. Apparently in the interview yesterday he was asked how many golf balls one could fit into a school bus.
Odd thing was, he tried to laugh it off at first but saw that it was a serious question. So he made a couple estimates for the size of a golf ball and the size of a school bus and started doing the math in his head. The second they saw that he had started trying to work it out, they asked the next question. Didn’t even give him time to answer after giving him the expectant stare for a while.
We never did figure out what the point of that could have been, but he got the job so I guess he reacted correctly.
I was interviewing with Yahoo! as a C Developer. The question was, if Dennis Ritchie(inventor of C) were rated 10/10, how would you rate yourself?
Pretty ridiculous if you ask me. I’d be flattered to find myself one-third as good as Ritchie, so an honest answer would be 3/10. Why should you even interview a guy who rates himself 3/10? Secondly, if I were to rate myself 5/10, would they be willing to pay me half as much as Ritchie? Finally, why would Ritchie go to work for Yahoo!??
For a coffee company: What do you know about our product and why do you want to work for us?
You make instant coffee. I drink coffee. I need money.
