"Come on" teaches you to answer questions without answers


Unknown to answer unknowns - Microsoft: How many golf balls are consumed in China each year in Microsoft's interview, there is such an interview question: If you meet a golf manufacturer on the plane, ask you about the golf that China consumes every year. quantity. How do you answer? How to answer, it is undoubtedly a fog for me who has never seen golf in real life. In fact, for this kind of impossible question, we only need to find a solution to it, because even the examiner himself does not know the answer to the question. We can answer this: 1. Count the number of golf courses in China; 2. Count the average number of guests per day; 3. Count the average number of golf balls consumed per person per day. Then we multiply the three numbers and multiply by the number of business days a year to know the amount of golf balls that China consumes each year. In the future interviews, I have encountered many similar problems, such as how many billiards can be installed in the Great Hall of the People, etc., can be solved in a similar way. How to answer is wrong - Changhong: Which character do you like in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"? Changhong's interview is in the form of a symposium. Our four students and the examiner are sitting together, a bit like the CCTV "Truth" section. That kind of atmosphere. During the talks, the examiner often asked us to read the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. After receiving a positive reply, the examiner asked us to talk about which character in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and why? The No. 1 student blurted out: Lu Bu, three British wars Lu Bu, Lu Bu singled out Liu Guanzhang three people, is a hero." The examiner said with a wave of disappointment: "Lub, this person, lascivious, first recognize the thief as the father, then the father to win the color, not the hero, the real It’s a small man.” No. 2 thought about it and said: “Liu Bei, generous and kind, and morality.” The examiner said a piece of tea: “Liu Bei is a man, a small thing is soft and a big thing is arbitrary. Usually I only know how to make a sound. After crying, Guan Yu was killed, did not listen to dissuasion, and bent on his own way, and finally laid the groundwork for the demise of the Shu Kingdom." No. 3 classmates meditation for a long time to be praised by the generation: "Zhuge Liang, resourceful and loyal to the country." Laughing: "Zhu Geliang's loyalty is just a foolish loyalty. Aunt knows that Adou is unable to help but still has to help. After a hundred years, the demise of the Shu Kingdom is inevitable, sad. Sigh. "It's my turn, I thought of" Three Kingdoms "in any one person, due to historical limitations, are flawed. The examiner also read the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", no matter who I propose. He will be able to find its shortcomings. I took the opportunity to say: "Gold is not full of red, no one is perfect. Due to historical limitations, the characters in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" are all shortcomings. Putting aside the historical grievances, personally, I like it most. It’s the big Joe and Xiao Qiao in The Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Because Confucius said that food, color, and sex are also.” The examiner could not speak because his mouth was already smiling. The interview ended in a laughter. The wind and the horse are irrelevant - Pepsi: What is the relationship between leather shoes and shoe polish? Pepsi's interview was conducted in a large conference hall, one-on-one. I had a face-to-face interview with Pepsi's Director of Human Resources for 2 hours, a bit like the atmosphere of CCTV's "The Son of the East" column. The examiner is a young and beautiful female director. I am a little older than me. I have a kind of scent that I can't tell. I don't know if this is one of Pepsi's interview methods - test my strength. The beauty director first asked me some basic information and some professional issues, and should be quite satisfied. Then she suddenly turned around and asked: What is the relationship between leather shoes and shoe polish? I just heard this, I almost don't believe my ears, because 3 seconds ago, we are still discussing game theory, Maslow's demand theory. But I immediately realized that the key moment is coming. The examiner wanted to see my reaction in a sudden situation. Because only in an unexpected situation, listening to his words and watching his actions can reflect whether a person has the qualities of calmness and calmness. I thought about it: "Leather shoes and shoe polish are closely related. The appearance of leather shoes produces shoe polish, just as the appearance of matter produces consciousness. After the appearance of shoe polish, it promotes the further development of leather shoes, just like the change of consciousness promotes substances. The progress is the same. Their relationship is honor and disgrace, and their development is advancing with the times." From the autumn wave of the beauty examiner, I know that I am not far from victory. It is important to introduce a philosophical point of view when answering such questions that are a bit confusing. Philosophy is a science that makes people smart, and many of its theories are universal. In your answer, breaking into the philosophical point of view not only makes your answer logical, but makes it irrefutable. Please enter the 瓮 宝 - P&G: Can you tell me about your shortcomings? Please enter the 常用 is a common strategy in the interview. Procter & Gamble's biggest "瓮" is to ask: "Can you tell me about your shortcomings?" Look at the words that don't care, but hide the murder. The murder of this problem lies in the fact that interviewers say advantages and no one has any shortcomings. Therefore, your shortcoming is the key to whether the company wants you or not. The shortcomings of your own export will also become an excuse for the company not to use you now, or to dismiss you in the future. How to answer, saying that you have no shortcomings is definitely not enough. It is not good to say your shortcomings as advantages. I have seen people say that they are a little impulsive in their actions and decisively a bit arbitrary. This kind of answer, out of letting others feel that you are licking your tongue, you can only earn points for yourself. One of the most basic answering skills is “scratching the ball”. “I think my biggest shortcoming is that I don’t have much work experience. The student’s experience is almost a graduation from a school to a new school. I want to use my time at school to learn more useful knowledge in the future. I hope that these shortcomings can be improved in your actual work!" The above-mentioned answer, the "disadvantages" described are actually not shortcomings. Because of the student era, whose experience is as simple as white paper; moreover, the above answer has implicitly demonstrated his own merits - practical - a good student who can study hard and earnestly, and will certainly be able to step on A good employee who works hard; at the same time, it also shows his determination to volunteer to work in the interview unit - "I hope that these shortcomings can be improved in your actual work!"
