Quote: “Microsoft Corporation played the role of a catalyst in changing the practice of interviewing for the selection of candidates for work. This happened largely due to a change in priorities when selecting staff in a variety of industries. Now unsuccessful solutions in this area are more expensive than ever, so employers began to interview candidates for the workplace of an unprecedented, perhaps even excessive importance. ” William Poundstone
What is the book Find the smart: how to test the logical thinking and creative abilities of the candidate. After reading this book, you will not be confused if during the HR interview you are suddenly asked about how many piano settings are in the world, how to weigh the jet airliner without the help of weights or why the right and left, not the top and bottom change in the mirrors. However, the tasks over which you can break your head is not the main advantage of the book.
In detail, it is described about the recruiting methodology adopted in Microsoft and more and more actively borrowed by other large companies who want to hire not just capable, but the most creative and non -standard thinking beginners. Microsoft practice is not based on the selection of candidates following standard interviews, but on whether the applicant can give a convincing answer to the question “How much water does the Mississippi river carry past the new Orleans within an hour?” It turns out that, with the proper training of creative and analytical thinking, you can find an answer to such a question even in a stressful situation of the HR interview.
The book will tell the applicant how to do this ... and will help the interviewer ask the applicant for the workplace an even more unexpected question.

Talking about what intellect is, William Pandstone arranges a fantastically interesting excursion into the history of the study of this concept: from IQ tests and the Mensa International club to an interview with smart. The book contains a selection of real questions-heads used in the Microsoft HR practitioner and other companies, as well as the solutions of these puzzles.
Who is the author: William Pandstone - an American writer and journalist, the author of a large number of books, two of which - the “recursive universe” and “Labyrinths of the mind” - were nominated for the Pulitzer Prize. Among other books of Poundstone - Are you smart enough to work in Google
