Bizarre job interview questions

Ever had a job interview where you get a question out of left field?

Beeta Golshani did…and it’s gone viral on Twitter!

She was asked:

“You’ve been given an elephant.  You can’t give it away or sell it.  What would you do with the elephant?”

No idea (yet) how she answered or if she got the job…but the Twitterverse has some answers:

“We’re going to travel from town to town solving mysteries.”

“Give me the job or my elephant will sit on your car.”

Someone chimed in who once took a course on how to respond to bizarre interview questions and the correct answer is:

“Open a business where you hire the elephant out for events.”

What would you say?
