I make everyone I interview solve this math problem. And if they can't, I won't hire them

I'm so glad I started my career off as an accountant/auditor and was professionally trained to be attentive to detail.

90% of the nikkas in here would get the boot. :mjlol:

And it's so crazy how all the answers were wrong until the right answer was posted. Now everybody posting the right answer.

Nikkas are not only dumb, but sheep.

a lot of us haven’t did that type of math in 20 years. Unless you have kids you not gonna remember the order of operation. I had to look it up, I will always remember the concept but I don’t remember the exact order. I did great in math when I was in school. I use calculators these days I have to calculate figures all day everyday. The only thing I get out of this math problem is paying close attention to detail which is needed not so much giving an answer under pressure. At first glance I missed the fact that it was only one horse shoe and one boot which is crazy cuz my whole job is paying close attention to detail.:snoop:

Can't relate, and I guess we were just taught differently because things like the order of operations were absolutely drilled into my head. I'll never forget PEDMAS. I'll never forget a^2 + b^2 = c^2. I'll never forget Soh Cah Toa. Which is weird because I never, or don't regularly use these concepts in real life.

Even if you hired, more hoops and trick questions will be put forth just to keep the job. That by itself tells me that that particular job isn't worth it.

one deals with emotions. the other deals with results.

I hate interviewing people. so for me, affective is more appropriate. :hubie:



I can tell if i'm going to hire someone within the first 5 minutes. But I drag the shyt out. This test actually is for entertainment purposes as well. I'm emotionally unstable at work :manny:

you’re probably going to catch some “Allegations” one of these days :skip:
