A woman named Beeta Golshani in Los Angeles was looking for a job when she received a question on her application questionnaire that has gone absolutely viral.

The question: "You've been given an elephant. You can't give it away or sell it. What would you do with the elephant?"


Some of the ideas of how to respond included "Unfortunately I can no longer work here, raising this elephant is my full-time job. We are going to travel from town to town solving mysteries," or "Give me the job or my elephant will sit on your car."

However, one respondent said they once took a course on how to respond to interview questions and there's actually a correct answer to this particular one! "Open a business where you hire the elephant out for events."
