Um Informationen zu spezifischen Fragen zu erhalten, die Ihnen evtl. gestellt werden, recherchieren Sie zu einer bestimmten Rolle wie z. B.

Let’s play a game of Russian roulette. You are tied to your chair and can’t get up. Here’s a gun. Here’s the cylinder of the gun, six chambers, all empty. Now watch me as I put two bullets in the gun, adjacent to each other. I close the cylinder and spin it. I put a gun to your head and pull the trigger. Click. Lucky you! Now I’m going to pull the trigger one more time. Which would you prefer, that I spin the cylinder first, or that I just pull the trigger?

During your office visit you will sit down with a number of people and, inevitably, you will be given a test of your analytic skills. They give you an excel of data to analyze, they give you a computer with PowerPoint and excel and word: whatever you could possibly need to complete the question. there are specific thing's they are looking for in this test and if you have the ability to understand the data you will be able to point them out. This test represents the bulk of their judgement, but keep in mind: if you don't do well on the interview's you will likely not get the job even if you ace the test.

1st interview: --Six horses, labeled 1, 2, 3, 4, 6. They take 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 mins to complete a circle, respectively. If started simultaneously when will they be at the starting position again? --Boxes labeled 1, 2, ... and so on. 1st box has 1 black marble and 1 white marble, 2nd box has 1 black and 2 white, 3rd box has 1 black and 3 white... and so on. If you open a pick a marble randomly, you move to the next box if the marble is white. Calculate the probability that the process would stop at the N'th box. 2st interview: --Why do you want to work here? --What did you achieve in your PhD? --(x+y)^2=4 and (x-y)^2=4, what is x^2+y^2? (I don't remember this exactly. Numbers might be off.) --A small ring rolls on a clock. If there was a pointer on the small ring and the ring starts rolling along the surface of the clock, when will the pointer point in the same direction again? 3st interview (Basic concepts were explained before each question): -- Calculate the fold (it's a seismic term) for a specific geometry of ship sending a signal at a constant velocity after each fixed time interval. -- Draw an auto-correlation of a square wave.
