Sometimes Is Good To Think Out Of The Box by DiegoNakel(m): 10:59pm On Nov 10, 2015
SOMETIMES IS GOOD TO THINK OUT OF THE
BOX...read up..


Question 1: "What will you do if I run away with your
sister?"
The candidate who was selected answered " I will not
get a better match for my sister than you, sir."


Question 2: Interviewer (to a student girl candidate) -
What if one morning you woke up & found that you
were pregnant ?
I will be very excited and take a day off, to celebrate
with my husband. (Normally an unmarried girl will be
shocked to hear this, but she managed it well. Why
should I think it in the wrong way, she said later when
asked.)


Question 3: Interviewer: He ordered a cup of coffee for
the candidate. Coffee arrived and was kept before the
candidate, then he asked "What is before you?"
Candidate: Instantly replied "Tea" and got selected.
(You know how and why did he say "TEA" when he
knows very well that coffee was kept before him?.
Answer: The question was "What is before you U? (-
alphabet). Reply was "TEA" T (- alphabet).


Question 4: You are driving along in your car on a wild,
stormy night, it's raining heavily, when suddenly you
pass by a bus stop, and you see three people waiting
for a bus:
An old lady who looks as if she is about to die.
An old friend who once saved your life.
The perfect partner you have been dreaming about.
Which one would you choose to offer a ride to,
knowing very well that there could only be one
passenger in your car?
This is a moral/ethical dilemma that was once actually
used as part of a job application.
You could pick up the old lady, because she is going to
die, and thus you should save her first or you could
take the old friend because he once saved your life,
and this would be the perfect chance to ! pay him back.
However, you may never be able to find your perfect
mate again...
The candidate who was hired (out of 200 applicants)
had no trouble coming up with his answer. Guess what
was his answer?
He simply answered:
"I would give the car keys to my Old friend and let him
take the lady to the hospital. I would stay behind and
wait for the bus with the partner of my dreams."
Sometimes, we gain more if we are able to give up our
stubborn thought limitations. Never forget to "Think
Outside of the Box."


Question 5: The interviewer asked the candidate "This
is your last question of the interview. Please tell me the
exact position of the center of this table where u have
kept your files."
Candidate confidently put one of his finger at some
point at the table and said that this was the central
point at the table. Interviewer asked "how did you
decide that this is the central point of this table?", then
he answers quickly that "Sir you are not supposed to
ask any more question, as it was the last question as
you promised .....
And hence, he was selected as because of his quick-
wittedness.
This is what Interviewer expects from the Interviewee.
