Was the job that you were seeking a tech job or non tech job?

I’m an engineer.... I know if I were faced with the kind of question about “how many golf balls fit into a 747”?

I would respond with :

“In order to accurately answer that, I will need the specs on the interior volume of a 747, and the specs on a standard golf ball. “

I’ve had those kinds of questions for both technical and non-technical positions.

And the idea behind most of those questions is not that you arrive at a particularly accurate answer, but to see what questions you ask to clarify (Seats or no seats? Filling the cabin only? etc.) or how your thought process works.

WildHighlander57 - LOL - All standard sized golf-balls fit into a 747. The question does not ask “what is the exact number” but rather how many “would fit into” and not necessarily “at the same time.” I would point that out and then add your answer.
