Answers to the 10 most difficult questions removed from Google job interviews

Here are the answers :

1. The answer is based on geometry .If they had a triangular or square shape, their diagonal would be longer than their sides and the lid could end up falling into the sewer hole.Being round, circular in shape, it is Impossible for this to happen.

2.As the only thing requested is to verify that it has the correct number (that is, if it has your number, whether it is correct or not), you write on the card that I will call you at a specific time and if it does not, you already know that the number you have is not yours.

3. The answer to this question on the bus and golf balls is not creative, in fact, is pure mathematics .

A reader of TechInsider, gave the following answer:

Approximately a standard school bus is about 8 feet wide x 20 feet long x 6 feet high.These are assumptions, but they are used to calculate.

This means 960 cubic feet, which it's about 1.6 mi cubic centimeter meters.A golf ball has a volume of about 2.5 cubic inches (4/3 * pi * 0.85)-0.85 corresponds to the inches measured by the radius of a golf ball.

Knowing this, you have to divide the 2.5 cubic inches by 1.6 million and you will get 660,000 golf balls.A result that depends on whether the bus is empty, if not...maybe it would be about 500,000 balls.

4. The San Francisco evacuation plan? It is part of a trick question, that the only thing you are looking for is to see how the candidate faces the problems.The best answer is: «What kind of disaster has caused the need for this evacuation plan?».

5. The best option is to divide the pirate booty evenly by 51% of the crew , live and rich !

6. Why this question about the database ? The goal is to see if the candidate has a good ability to explain complex ideas through simple language.So a good option could be: «A database is a machine that remembers a lot of information about a lot of things.Use it to help you remember information. And now go out and have fun, little one! ».

7. The answer is: 22 times .Here every moment:

AM: 12:00; 1:05; 2:11; 3:16; 4:22; 5:27; 6:33; 7:38; 8:44; 9:49 and 10:55.

PM: 12:00; 1:05; 2:11; 3:16; 4:22; 5:27; 6:33; 7:38; 8:44; 9:49; 10:55.

8 .In the case of the shrunk individual and the blender, there is no correct answer .What is tried is to check how creative is the interviewee.A proposal is: "Try to break the engine in some way".

9.The man was playing Monopoly and fell into the worst possible box, losing all his fortune.

10.Another trick question that was intended to stimulate and measure the cunning of the candidate .The best and easiest answer: «10 dollars per window».

How did it go? Have you managed to get any of the questions right? After trying, we have no trouble understanding why they were removed from the list of questions.Just imagine ourselves trying to get a job and receiving these questions, we already they devour the nerves! Without a doubt, they must have caused more than one blockade.

5 TERRIBLE effects of loneliness

“I go to my solitudes,/from my solitudes I come,/because to walk with me/my thoughts are enough.” This is how Lope de Vega begins his famous poem La Dorotea , from 1632.Loneliness has always had apologists and detractors, and from art and literature it is meticulously described... Loneliness is a state through which almost all of us have passed, and we will pass unfailingly at some point in time.our lives.Sometimes we need to be alone, but that is different from feeling alone continuously.And there is no age to have that feeling. We can feel alone for several reasons: for being rejected or abused by others -which hurts us not only the ego but something much more intimate, that vulnerable and tiny mass that rests helplessly in the bottom of everyone waiting for the balsam of a caress, a smile, a friendly tone...&ndash because of the feeling that we don't fit into our environment , and that is why the maladjustment arises and we don't feel part of the group ...

When the world smells like nothing: anosmia

I have a friend, let's call him Jesus, who after ten years fell from a wall and hit him hard on the head that led him to the hospital, where he took some stitches and examined him carefully to rule out major injuries.Apparently it was fine, and it would be several years before he realized that he did not perceive odors, that in the coup he had lost one of the apparently innocuous senses with which we connected to the world: the sense of smell; loss that the medicine calls anosmia . Thirty years later, after overcoming a bad cold, Jesus discovered that his ability to smell the world had returned, and since then no He has stopped celebrating it in various ways, for example, doing cooking courses and experiencing new dishes with smells and flavors whenever he can and his financial resources allow it. This is not the case with Boak Duncan, native of Leeds (United Kingdom), that after suffering a serious head injury, also due to a fall as a seven-year-old boy, he lost his sense of...
