12. Would you rather fight a horse-sized duck or 100 duck-sized horses? Interviewers ask this question to learn about your analytical and problem-solving skills. It also reveals your work style and whether you prefer to tackle one big project or several small ones simultaneously. When you respond, focus on why you chose one response over the other.
Example answer: "While I love horses, I would rather go head-to-head with one giant duck. I think I could more effectively defend myself if I could focus on one foe rather than 100. One hundred horses could easily sneak up on and overwhelm me because I can't possibly know where each one is at all times. The duck might be more dangerous due to his size and weight, but I also assume he's slower-moving than the horses."
