[QUOTE="NAremu, post: 1279, member: 11"] I've had questions that force you to think on your feet. They weren't so much in the format you mentioned, but more "brainteaser" type questions. For general curveball questions, I would remember - they're a test of how you think, so you want to show that you can stay calm and that you can clearly articulate your thoughts. A lot of them won't seem easy to answer at first, so talk through all the information/evidence you have. Describe this out loud so the interviewer can see your thought process. Think - what can I infer from that information? What information do I need to know? The interviewer may then introduce new information. Even if you get stuck there, at least you've made progress on the answer. What I did was found examples of these kinds of questions online and practised how I would answer them. Practice helps a lot because you get better at describing your thoughts in a logical manner. [/QUOTE]
