Below are some interview questions which were asked from a candidate in an HR round:
Question 1: You are driving your car on a wild, stormy
night, it's raining heavily, suddenly you pass by a bus stop,
and 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, knowing very well that only one passenger can sit in your car?
This is a moral/ethical dilemma that was once actually used as part
of a job application.
* You could pick up the old lady, because she is going to die, and
thus you might 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.
The 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."
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 if one
morning you wake up & find that you are pregnant.
Girl - I will be very excited and take an off, to celebrate the joyous moment with my husband.
Normally an unmarried girl will be shocked to hear this, but she
managed it well. Why she should take it in the wrong way?
Question 4: Interviewer ordered a cup of coffee for the candidate. Coffee arrived and was kept before the candidate, then the interviewer asked
what is before you?
Candidate(replied instantly) : "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".
Question 5: The interviewer : This is the last question for u. Please tell me the exact position of the center of this table, where, u have kept your files.
Candidate confidently put one of his finger at some point at the
table and told that this was the central point of the table.
Interviewer asked how did u get to know that this is the central
point of this table?
The candidate answered quickly that "sir u r not supposed to ask any more question, as it was the last question that u promised to ask....."
And hence, he got selected only because of his quick-wittedness. ........
This is What an Interviewer expects from an Interviewee. ....
so members! next time whenever u go for an interview, be prepared in this way only.
All the best.
