Google doesn't make it easy for applicants. Anyone who wants to work at Google needs to be able to answer some tricky questions. We have summarized the 20 best questions for you in this guide.

Every enthusiastic technology freak must have dreamed of working for the search engine giant. It shouldn't be that difficult. One thinks? But they were wrong. However, a job interview on Google is not an ordinary one - there are a lot of tricky questions waiting. We have put together the best 20 questions in the following guide.

Not all of these questions cannot be answered easily. Google is concerned with these questions about how the applicant looks for a solution. You also look at how the candidate reacts to unusual or tricky questions. Try answering these questions.

These are the best questions in Google's job interviews

  1. “Which number is next in this sequence of numbers? 10, 9, 60, 90, 70, 66 ...? "
  2. "Explain the principle of a database to your eight-year-old nephew in three sentences."
  3. “If there was only one elevator in the building, how would you change the design? But what if there are three? "
  4. "What method do you use when you look up a word in the dictionary?"
  5. "How much does the Empire State Building weigh?"
  6. “A man left his car in a hotel and lost his fortune. What happened?"
  7. "How many golf balls fit in a typical American school bus?"
  8. "If you had to clean all of the windows in Seattle, how much would you charge for it?"
  9. "How many tuning devices for pianos are there worldwide?"
  10. "Design an evacuation plan for San Francisco."
  11. "How many vacuum cleaners are made in the US annually?"
  12. "How often do the two hands of a clock overlap each day?"
  13. "Explain the meaning of" Dead Beef "(Dead beef is not dead beef, but a technical term in computer science)
  14. “A person dials a specific sequence of numbers on a telephone. Which possible words can be formed with the letters for the respective digits? "
  15. “They're shrinking to the size of a five-cent coin. Their mass has been reduced so that their density is the same as always. After that, you will be thrown into an empty blender which will turn on a minute later. What do you do?"
  16. “You want to check that your friend Bob has your correct phone number, but you can't contact him directly. You write the question on a card and give it to your friend Eve, who should forward it to Bob. How do you code the message to make sure Eve can't read your number? "
  17. "Why are manhole covers round?"
  18. "Which color best represents your personality?"
  19. "How many gas stations are there in the US?"
  20. "How would you store 1 million phone numbers?"
