Here are some questions you have to answer if you want to pass Google Interviews

Google used very embarrassing practices during recruitment processes.

These questions were also used to introduce executives and engineers in the mid-1930s to their graduation rates.

But the worst thing a Google human resources officer can do is ask applicants to Google for very difficult questions in the interview, this questions known as a brain teaser.

Gail Lakeman McDowell, a former Google software engineer and author of Google's appeal, said: "The company finally banned these terrible hiring practices."

How bad are these silly questions that Google had explicitly banned?

The answer is of course very bad. Seattle's recruitment coach, Lewis Lane, has compiled a list of 140 questions posed to Google by Google,
