Interviewer: One corner of a table is cut off, how many corners are left? The post-90s beauty received the offer in seconds!

The society is developing and progressing, and the demand of enterprises for talents is also getting higher and higher. In order to recruit suitable talents, the interviewers have racked their brains and tried their best to come up with many tricky and unpredictable questions. Sometimes the question may not be difficult, but because it is too weird, I didn't respond for a while, and the answer given was not the answer the interviewer expected, so I missed the job I wanted.

My friend, Xiaomei, is a post-90s beauty. She just graduated from graduate school this year and has achieved good grades. I recently received an interview from a large company. The interviewer was just talking about career planning, work skills, etc., and finally asked a strange question, which caused many job seekers to fail, and finally they were brushed down.

Interviewer: One corner of a table is cut off, how many corners are left?

Several job seekers were immediately confused when they heard the question, what does this question have to do with the job interview, and they thought hard about how to answer the question.

The first boy felt that the interviewer might test his ability to judge the question, and he felt that the question had nothing to do with work, so he answered: "I think this question has nothing to do with work, I don't need to answer it, just like I will give my best at work. Work, don’t get distracted by things you don’t want to do.”

The interviewer nodded and looked at another job applicant with a smile.

The second thought he thought of the correct answer, and then said confidently: "This question is simple, one of the four corners of the table is cut off, and the one that was cut off becomes two corners, and the rest must be 5. But if it is Cut diagonally, then there are only three left!"

The interviewer smiled and nodded, slightly affirming, and then looked at Xiaomei.

Xiaomei was full of confidence and answered in seconds: "There is no answer to this question at all, the reason is that there are no preconditions. There are several corners on the table, and where is the corner that was cut off? My table can have an infinite number of corners or an infinite number of corners. This leads to endless answers. Just like when we encounter a problem, we must consider the essential cause of the problem, and solve the problem in one step. When accepting a task, we must clarify the needs of the task before executing it. This results in a result that the customer is satisfied with.”

After listening, the interviewer clapped his hands, came over and held Xiaomei's hand: "Your answer is clear and your analysis is in place, our company needs talents like you, you have been accepted, welcome to join our company! "Xiaomei is flattered and very happy to have won this interview!

Ladies and gentlemen, how would you answer this question if it were you? Comments welcome!
