What would you think would be the result if you gave these questions for interviews (computer programmer)

depends....if they are fresh out of school, I would expect them to know it.

If they have not been to school in 10 years, I would not even ask anything like that.
 
The result would be you'd get unqualified high school graduates as your primary applicants. What does computer programmer have to do with AP calculus exams? I'd say at most 1 computer programming job in 100,000 would involve stuff like this. You might as well ask AP Government questions.
 
Much better to use questions directly pertinent to the position in question, and find someone who can answer those correctly.

If they pass that test, test their general problem solving skills (logic, not calculus) and "common sense" and personality.

If they pass that test, make sure they are a good fit for the team.

If they pass that test, offer them the position.
 
You posted a link to a 63 page PDF. I'm supposed to look for the questions? 😕 What's the point of this thread? I've never used calculus as a developer.

Yeah what questions are you talking about? Can we get a page number?

I sense an epic fail. Wait for it...

roughly page 18 and beyond.
 
OP, how about someone puts you in a bomb proof room with a live grenade and pulls the pin for an interview. If you live you get the job., if you don't live....

Now that would be LOL material. :roll:
