Xiao Dong went to a company for an interview, and encountered a strange problem during the interview.

It's just that it's not so much a weird problem, it's more of the interviewer's intention. Let's take a look at which question the interviewer asked Xiao Dong.

A strange interview.

All the job seekers came to this company. The interviewers didn't read their resumes and didn't talk to them. They just sat in their seats with a cup of tea.

After about 10 minutes, the interviewer closed the door of the interview, and then told all the job applicants: Up to now, it is the interview time we agreed, and no matter who comes next, they will not be allowed to interview again. Because they don't keep the time.

After the interviewer finished saying this, other job applicants nodded and felt nothing, after all, for that part of the people, they were indeed late.

For the vast majority of companies, they still pay more attention to whether their employees are late. Since they are late, they have no choice.

After the interviewer saw that all the job applicants were sitting down, he nodded, and then continued: I have a small question here. If you can't say the answer, you can't get into the business.

Just when several other job applicants were confused, the interviewer suddenly asked his own question: A frog has 4 legs, so how many legs do 10 tadpoles have in total?

Second, the responses of job seekers.

No one thought that the interviewer would ask such a strange question, and all the job seekers suddenly didn't know how to answer this question.

Until this time, Xiao Dong took courage, and then raised his hand to indicate that he could answer this question.

The interviewer was quite interesting after reading it, and then nodded and told Xiao Dong that you can answer.

Then Xiao Dong said: A frog has 4 legs. If there is no mistake in the calculation, 10 tadpoles are actually 10 frogs. In this case, there are 40 legs. The final answer is 40 right?

After listening, the interviewer shook his head and said: No, no, this answer is almost meaningless.

Immediately after, another job seeker also stood up, and he began to scold the interviewer for asking, such a nonsensical question that embarrassed several other job seekers.

But the interviewer was unmoved at all, just looked at the job applicant coldly, and told him: If you don't want to win this interview, then you can leave now.

After that, other job seekers showed their status one after another, clearly telling the interviewer that they could not draw this conclusion at all.

Until the last job seeker hiding in the corner stood up and revealed his qualifications to the interviewer.

It turned out that this was a college student, and then she told the interviewer that it was true that a frog had 4 legs, so 10 frogs theoretically also have 4 legs, that is, 40 legs.

But the key to the problem is that tadpoles are not frogs, tadpoles have no legs, so 10 tadpoles are 0 legs.

The interviewer nodded excitedly after listening, and then told the job applicant: Yes, yes, your answer is the correct answer.

  1. Workplace Apocalypse. ========================

We don't know what the interviewer's purpose in asking this question is, and we don't know how helpful the interviewer's questioning is in selecting talent.

But in any case, after all, it was a very failed interview, and it was precisely because of this very failed interview that to a certain extent, some talents were prevented from entering the company.

Perhaps the interviewer is still complacent and thinks that such an interview is of great benefit, but he does not know that such an interview has virtually prevented the company's talent development.

Guys, what do you think of this interview? You are welcome to leave a message in the comment area.
