Why is the manhole cover round ?" Best Answer

Yesterday, Sohu It invited Tang Jun, the working emperor. The most famous professional manager in China shared his experience in career planning and personal anecdotes that he had interviewed at Microsoft.

    When talking about Microsoft's interview questions, Tang Jun expressed his opinion that his last interview was a person'sCharacterInstead of others. Many interview questions have no standard answers, but they are used to test people's personality. Why is the manhole cover round ?" Tang Jun said a few answers, one of which is his father's answer: "The manhole cover is round, so it looks beautiful ", there is also a neighbor of his hometown, "the circle of manhole covers facilitate the handling (rolling when moving )." These answers are all good, and there are many similar answers. One of these answers may be the best one (Tang Jun thinks the best answer)"The circular manhole cover won't fall down during loading and unloading ."It should be the most scientific.

    I have also come up with several answers, "the lowest cost of building a circular manhole cover ." "The Circular wellhead is the most stable structure ." "The circle is the most even, so it is the strongest ". Once again, Tang Jun did not find the best answer to these questions. He then tested the subject's personality, including the ability to reflect and communicate.

   Tang Jun made some interesting questions at Microsoft, such as: "If your subordinates sell 20 thousand yuan worth of products to customers by mistake, now you need to write a letter to this customer. Of course, the goal is to get the 10 thousand yuan back. How should you write this letter?" There is no standard answer to this question, and this question can allow the interviewer to launch their own relatives and friends to complete the work, because the employees actually rely on themselves and their own contacts to do things after entering the company.
