Chapter 487: Interview
After a while, a young girl came slowly. The girl kept smiling and seemed very friendly.
"Hello, are you He Xiyan?" the girl asked politely.
He Xiyan nodded.
The girl made a gesture of invitation and said: "Come with me. I have sent your resume and information to three managers. You meet the preliminary screening conditions. Now please follow me to the testing room. There will be There are some test questions for you to complete. This is the first step of the interview. Good luck."
The girl smiled the whole time, while He Xiyan clenched her fingers so tightly that she could feel the sweat on her palms. The companies she interviewed before usually asked her to design works on site, or look at her past cases, and then decide whether to hire her after several rounds of interviews. But this company clearly has a completely different hiring process and approach.
He Xiyan followed the girl in front of her into the so-called test room. This test room was very large, at least sixty or seventy square meters. There were 20 computers and chairs in it, and more than a dozen of them were already occupied. Do the questions carefully.
The girl introduced: "Hello, He Xiyan, this is a simple test. There are 60 questions here. You have one and a half hours to answer. You can answer as many questions as you can."
After saying that, the girl left directly without waiting for He Xiyan to ask another word.
He Xiyan sat in front of a computer, and soon the first question was displayed on the screen of the computer, as well as the countdown time.
He Xiyan let out a long breath and tried to calm down. Since she was here, she would try her best.
She looked at the first question on the screen, which read: You have 8 balls of the same size, 7 of which have the same weight, and the other one is heavier. How can you find the heavier ball by weighing it twice on a scale?
He Xiyan was stunned! He was interviewing for a design position, but he didn't expect that the test questions had nothing to do with the job content. It seemed like an IQ test. She frowned and rubbed her temples hard again, thinking of a way. After twenty seconds, she started typing out the answer:
1. Take 6 balls out of 8 balls.
2. Place 3 balls on each side of the weighing machine. If they weigh equal, the heavier ball is among the remaining two.
3. But if their weights are not equal, then the heavier ball is on one side.
4. If there is a heavier ball among the 3 balls, pick out 2 balls and put them on the scale. If they are the same weight, it is the ball that is not placed on the scale; if they are not the same weight, it is the heavier ball. ball.
The first question has been answered. It took one minute and twenty seconds.
She quickly pressed the Enter key to jump to the second question. This question seemed to be a reasoning question. The question was: In a country that values boys over girls, every family wants to have a boy. If the child they give birth to is a girl, Just have one more child until the baby is a boy. What will be the male-to-female ratio in such a country?
He Xiyan thought for a moment, but she answered this question very quickly, and entered the answer "1:1" without hesitation in less than twenty seconds.
Then comes the third question, the fourth question...
He Xiyan chose to skip the questions that he didn't know how to answer. And she answered a total of 48 questions within an hour and a half, and they were all questions that tested people's IQ and thinking.
After answering, she was already sweating profusely.
This feeling is like going through a long-distance race. Even the college entrance examination does not have such test tension.
