Thinking Outside the Box

HR interview! The answers are really
stunning

and inspiring. Thinking out of the box! A must
read…
Question 1:
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.
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 2:
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 3:
Interviewer (to a student girl candidate) – What
is
one morning you woke up & found that you were
pregnant.
Girl – I will be very excited and take an off, to
celebrate with my husband.
Normally an unmarried girl will be shocked to
hear
this, but she managed it well. Why I should think
it
in the wrong way, she said later when asked.
Question 4:
Interviewer: He ordered a cup of coffee for the
candidate. Coffee arrived kept before the
candidate,
then he asked what is before you?
Candidate: Instantly replied “Tea”
He got selected.
You know how and why did he say “TEA” when he
knows very well that coffee was kept before.
(Answer: The question was “What is before you
(U –
alphabet) Reply was “TEA” ( T – alphabet)
Alphabet “T” was before Alphabet “U”
Question5;
Interviewer said “I shall either ask you ten easy
questions or one really difficult question.
Think well before you make up your mind!” The
boy
thought for a while and said, “my choice is one
really
difficult question.”
“Well, good luck to you, you have made your own
choice! Now tell me this. “What comes first, Day
or
Night?”
The boy was jolted into reality as his admission
depends on the correctness of his answer, but he
thought for a while and said, “It’s the DAY sir!”
“How” the interviewer asked,
“Sorry sir, you promised me that you will not
ask me
a SECOND difficult question!”
