How would YOU answer this question at a job interview?

Rainy night and there is:





A) Your friend who saved your life


B) Your potential soulmate


C) An old lady dying and needs to get to the hospital.





You have the car and only ONE person gets to be a passenger. What do you do?





Note: You can NOT put a person in the trunk! No telephones, cell-phones or pagers!

How would YOU answer this question at a job interview?
ask your friend 2 take the dying lady and stay with ur potential soulmate
Reply:This wasn't the answer that should have been accepted it was an illegal question to begin with. You should have taken "interview question" out. Maybe I would agree with you as a response. Next time make sure the answer fits the question before choosing the right answer. Report It

Reply:Is something missing from this question? Why would you take your friend or soulmate in the car? And where would you be taking them? Is there some kind of emergency involving them, too? The only thing that makes sense is (C), but I don't think the question in general makes sense. If I actually got asked this question in a job interview, I'd look for employment elsewhere. It clearly indicates lack of critical thinking on the part of the asker.
Reply:The old lady dying because shes the only one who really needs your help, the other 2 arent DYING!
Reply:WHERE DID YOU APPLY AT? (c) that is my honest answer. I assume you can get the other two later. Maybe send them a cab.
Reply:Truthfully this doesn't sound like an interview question and it is an illegal interview question too. But to answer it I would go with the C) which anyone with a sense of morals and compassion will and should choose.
Reply:This should not be a question at a job interview.
Reply:Well the old lady will probably die anyway, If it's a potential soulmate then nothing has started yet so I would take my friend who saved my life.





But I;m not fully understanding the question... Where is it I am going and why am I leaving?
Reply:C. The first two would understand.
Reply:Maybe the old lady is a potential soulmate, and is the freind who saved your life....
Reply:interesting question for a job interview!! (C)
Reply:C... the friend can wait, there are other days.


Your potential soulmate can wait also. If he is really meant to be your soulmate, he will be back.


Even though the lady is old, and will die eventually, she still deserves the right to live out the rest of her life like the rest of us.
Reply:the old lady
Reply:I would ask my friend who saved my life to take the old lady to the hospital and stay with my soulmate at home.
Reply:An old lady dying and needs to get to the hospital
Reply:O.K.... my observation is this is a question to test your prioritization skills....


Even without trying to answer it correctly, I would take the old lady to the hospital considering that the other 2 people will realize you are trying to save her life and you would probably only saving them from a cold!


Then if the interviewer asked what I would do if it was between just A %26amp; B.... I would say that I would walk, and turn my car over to both of them... a true test... as a "soulmate" would come back for you, as would the person that had previously cared enough to save you... let them decide who would come back to get you.... probably your soulmate this time around....
Reply:C) An old lady dying and needs to get to the hospital.
