Think outside the box

Campus placements!! One of the most scariest or depressing part of anyone's bitsian life. The saddest part, sometimes getting the job can be worse than not getting it since getting job is easy. Oh, I forgot this post has to be about interviews. So, lets skip all this. I think that "Interview" should be renamed as "Endview" as it will be the end part of your placement. Cracking an interview can sometimes be very tricky. Some people say that best way to ace an interview is just to be yourself while my friends say Interviewers are there to fuck you and you have to fuck them in return whosoever stops, LOSES!! 

Few days back, I came across this interview question which I would like to share it with you and requests you to go though the question first think of your answer and then have a look below :

Question:

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?


* 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.

He 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."
