Globaltech Research Interview Question
Software Engineer / DevelopersWe have 10 mins, so we can spend some time intially explaining him different signs of human behavior and what a specific gesture indicates. Our goal is to teach him how to greet and then show affection. Hence we can start with,waving a hand to him and smiling. Since he is a "friendly" alien, he would be open to make new friends. Hence he would consider our gesture of 1.) waiving our hand and 2.) showing our teeth in a way of smiling to be mannerisms of greeting. We will have to repeat it a few times so that he understands that and eventually learns that. This would take 3-4 mins. The next thing he needs to understand is to show affection. For this we would pat his head with our arms gently continuing to show our teeth (indicating a smile). Again, considering him to be a "friendly alien" he would consider our act to be getting friendly towards him. This would take another 3-4 mins for him to understand and learn.
Hence, he would be able to learn the two gestures in app. 8 mins. He'll practice it for the next two mins and would be ready to greet and show affection to a do in 10 mins time.
Please suggest improvements.
Hence repeating this
Jack please tell us how you taught the alien!!!
