@andylei Yes, some do happen to be real. The point is that if several are definitely fake, why believe the rest?

For example, take this one: "A man pushed his car to a hotel and lost his fortune. What happened?"

Come on, no one was asked that. If even if they were, the hiring committee would take one look and that and throw out the feedback.

As for some of the other questions, like "How much would you charge to wash all the windows in the Seattle?" (1) This question seems fishy, just because it's about Seattle. Yes, Google has a Seattle office (where I worked), but it has very few PMs. It's far more likely that this question was asked at Microsoft. (2) This question is actually very standard for consulting question. It's really a totally fair problem solving question, as the accuracy of your final answer doesn't matter.

The Business Insider article is designed to be link bait - reprinting fake questions and building off the "OMG IT'S GOOGLE" stuff. The legitimate questions on this list are actually totally normal for tech and consulting companies.
