  "It's interesting when you get peoples' response to that," he previously told Business Insider. "I don't have a right answer for it. I'm not looking for a right answer. I am more looking at the way in which the person explains and reasons why they answered the way they did."

  “让人们回答这个问题的过程很有趣,”他较早前回复《业内者》。“我没有设定正确答案,我也不会设定,我更想考量人们解释的方法以及选择这个答案的原因。”

  Intuit的行政总裁Brad Smith喜欢用这个特别的问题结束面试,根据《业内者》的报道。
