Are You Smart Enough to Work at Google?: Trick Questions, Zen-like Riddles, Insanely Difficult Puzzles, and Other Devious Interviewing Techniques You ... Know to Get a Job Anywhere in the New Economy [Poundstone, William] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Are You Smart Enough to Work at Google?: Trick Questions, Zen-like Riddles, Insanely Difficult Puzzles, and Other Devious Interviewing Techniques You ... Know to Get a Job Anywhere in the New Economy

Review: This Book Will Make You Enjoy Job Hunting(alibi maybe) - First of all, William Poundstone is a very good writer, and a bright guy to boot. This is a good book just to give you the answer to those crazy puzzles you often find not only in interviews, but in puzzle books. It's a pleasure to read and you really learn a lot. A book worth buying no matter what you are trying to find---a job--solutions to puzzles and more.
Review: Informative for interviewing at Google and beyond, but don't get your hopes up - I found this to be an entertaining and informative read about the riddle-type questions that are now so popular in job interviews. Some of the advice offered could give you ideas on how to answer such questions if you are faced with them during an interview. Importantly, it could help you better structure your thought process and demeanor when tackling such interview questions. However, this book alone would probably not help you get a job at Google or anywhere else - riddles or not. The most interesting thing I found in this book is the admission that other companies have adopted riddle questions because they are trying to be more like Google. However, such interviewers usually don't understand the reasoning or objectives behind Google's riddle/mathematical problems and therefore a worthy response to a riddle asked at Google may get you different results at other companies. I had fun comparing my answers to the riddles to the answer key in the back of the book, but I believe that it has only made me marginally better as an interviewer. I still think that getting hit with a riddle during an interview at any company makes your success more of a crap shoot.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very interesting
*by D***S on April 5, 2013*

Very interesting book if you like to solve puzzles. Got new interesting quizzes and ideas. Although on interview nobody really asked me those types of questions. It seems like it's becoming less popular. Still I think this book is worth it. It makes you think wider.
