Interview at Business School

Once in an interview at a business school, a panel of interviewers was taking interviews of prospective students for admission in school.

One of the prospective students entered and sat down nervously on the chair in front of them, One of the interviewer said to boy, "We shall either ask you either ten easy questions or one really difficult question. What would you choose?"

The boy thought for a while and replied, "I would like to answer one really difficult question."

The interviewer smiled and replied, "Well then good luck to you, Now answer us What comes first, Day or Night?"

Boy was jolted into reality as his admission depended on the correct answer to this question but then he thought for a while and replied, "It's a Day. Sir"

"How?", asked Interviewer.

"Sorry sir but you assured me that I do not need to answer any other question if I choose to answer one difficult question", the boy replied.

The boy was selected for admission.

Moral:

Technical Skill is the mastery of complexity while Creativity is the mastery of Presence of Mind.
