00:00Now look here. Richard is looking for a new job, but it's not that easy.
00:05Tricky interviews, suspicious employers, and unexpected challenges await him.
00:10You can help him find his dream job if you solve all the riddles. Let's give it a shot.
00:16The first job interview is in just one minute, but Richard can't find the right office building.
00:22His email invitation has a hint instead of an exact address.
00:26So, which of these three buildings should Richard enter?
00:39Richard should enter the glass building, because its windows are sealed shut, so no one can open them.
00:45The other two buildings have visible window handles.
00:50Richard enters the building, but before he can get to the final interview room,
00:54the secretary gives him a puzzle.
00:57The password is a three-digit number.
00:59The first digit is the number of legs on a spider.
01:02The second digit is the number of wheels on a bicycle.
01:06The third digit is the number of thumbs a person has.
01:16So, what is the password?
01:29Richard finally enters the interview room, and more puzzles await him there.
01:35Oops!
01:36With all the interviews, Richard forgot he needed to take his pills.
01:40The doctor prescribed him one for the morning, let's call it X, and the other one for the evening, let's
01:46call it Y.
01:48Richard cannot take both in the morning or both in the evening.
01:51The pills are absolutely identical.
01:53How should he take them correctly and survive?
02:04He needs to cut each pill in half.
02:07He'll take one half of pill X in the morning and the other half of X in the evening.
02:12And he should do the same for pill Y.
02:15The interviewer gives Richard a book to test how quickly he can remember new facts.
02:21He got carried away while reading and accidentally tore out pages 9, 10, 25, 67, and 68.
02:29How many pages will he have to fix?
02:39Ah, no worries.
02:41He'll only have to fix 3 pages.
02:439 and 10, just like 67 and 68, are different sides of one page.
02:49The next riddle is to test Richard's analytical skills.
02:53He needs to guess which of the employees of the company is selling their secrets to their rivals.
02:59The only hint is a periodic table with 3 elements that are highlighted in red.
03:05Carbon, oxygen, and lithium.
03:08The 3 suspects are Liam, Colin, and Oliver.
03:19The chemical symbols spell out C-O-L-I, forming the name Coli.
03:25It's a clue clearly pointing to Colin.
03:28The interview is over, and while Richard is waiting for the results, he receives an email.
03:34It's an invitation to work at Microsoft.
03:37Looks like a dream job.
03:38But instead of celebrating, Richard instantly notices it's a scam.
03:43How did he figure it out?
03:52Well, Microsoft wouldn't send out invitations to interviews from an email.
03:57We hire microsoft at coolmail.com
04:01It's time for another interview at a company that seemed perfect.
04:05The office was modern, and the manager was friendly.
04:09But something felt off.
04:11What's suspicious here?
04:20The fact that there's no company logo anywhere and no branded material is a huge red flag.
04:26An empty office with no staff is super suspicious, too.
04:31And that huge TV instead of basic office amenities, like a water cooler or coffee machine,
04:37is a clear sign that this isn't even an office.
04:40Looks like it's a showroom or a space used for something else.
04:44Richard gets an invitation to another interview nearby.
04:48So, he decides to check it out.
04:50Instead of the regular questions, the interviewer asks Richard to quote popular online memes.
04:57Richard realizes the interviewer must be a blogger, who is probably streaming all this live.
05:02What gave away the scammer?
05:12The office room seems rather normal.
05:15But what is that teddy bear doing there?
05:18One of its eyes looks bigger than the other.
05:20It must be a hidden camera.
05:23Richard doesn't give up and sends his CV to two more companies that are in the same office building.
05:28He sees two managers and realizes only the first company will most likely trick him.
05:34How did he figure it out?
05:44Do you see that envelope full of money?
05:46The manager of the first company is trying to hide it.
05:49So, it could be an unofficial salary or even a bribe.
05:54The manager of the second company looks professional.
05:57And her watch is a sign that she values time and keeps track of things.
06:01So, he chooses the second company and is from the creative industry.
06:07They need to see if Richard can think outside the box.
06:10The question is, what will you get if you add 5 to 500 five times?
06:24It's a creative company, remember?
06:27You'll get 505, 505, 505, 505, and 505.
06:33The interviewer has 15 colored pencils.
06:365 blue, 5 red, and 5 purple.
06:40The task is to divide them into two piles.
06:43One pile must have twice as many blue pencils as red pencils.
06:47And another pile must have more purple pencils than any other color.
06:52How many red pens would be in each pile?
07:02It sounds complicated, but this riddle is there to test your attention.
07:07The answer is zero.
07:08As we were talking about pencils, not pens, all the time.
07:13Richard needs to figure out which principle this sequence is based on.
07:25The numbers are lined up in the alphabetical order of the first and second letters of their names.
07:318, 5, 4, 9, and so on.
07:35The final task of the interview is to find the way out of the room.
07:39The door has a combination lock.
07:42And this time, there seems to be no hint to guess the six digits.
07:46How can Richard get out?
07:56Well, no one said the door was actually locked.
08:00He just pushes it, and it opens.
08:03Richard receives two job offers and must choose the one that is safe to accept.
08:07The first company instantly offers a high salary, but requires a passport scan and bank details before signing the contract.
08:17The second company offers a smaller salary and a trial period, but provides official employment and signs the contract first.
08:25Which company should Richard choose?
08:35You should never share your personal information like bank details before signing a contract.
08:41So, the first company is a scam.
08:44Richard should choose the second one.
08:47Hey, it's Richard's first day at work.
08:49In the morning, he reads a newspaper that has a weird headline.
08:54Workers want to make less money.
08:56He was so intrigued, he read the article.
08:58And then it made perfect sense.
09:01What is this about?
09:10People working at the Mint and literally making money felt overworked and underpaid.
09:16So, they wanted to work less.
09:18Which, in their case, means making less money, since money is made at the Mint.
09:24Richard arrives at the office, and he instantly notices something is really wrong there.
09:30Can you figure out what exactly?
09:40Look at the calendar.
09:42June only has 30 days.
09:43So, June 31st, well, doesn't exist.
09:47It was the first attentive test at work.
09:50And Richard passed it.
09:52His boss comes into the room and says,
09:55I can beat anyone who works here at arm wrestling.
09:58But, if one of his employees wins, they will get a reward of 500 bucks.
10:04Richard wants to try, but other employees tell him not to, because he could get fired.
10:09Why?
10:18The boss said he could beat anyone who works at the company.
10:21So, to eliminate competition, he would just fire the person who was stronger than him.
10:26The first day at the job went really well.
10:30Richard had to go through scammers, difficult tests, and unexpected traps.
10:35But thanks to your help, he proved his intelligence and finally landed the job he deserved.
10:41Olivia here is a young mom, and boy, her life can get pretty hectic.
10:46But with your help, I'm sure it's going to get much easier.
10:49One day, she came home with a stroller, took off her coat, checked her phone, and went to change her
10:55baby, Jordan.
10:57Just a minute later, she needed to leave again.
10:59But she couldn't find her keys.
11:01Wow.
11:02Can you help her figure out where they are?
11:10I wonder if you noticed that she put them in the stroller pocket while checking her phone.
11:16Olivia's baby drinks 5 ounces of baby formula at a time and eats 5 times a day.
11:23How much milk should Olivia prepare for 2 days?
11:32Ooh, some math!
11:34Olivia needs to prepare 50 ounces of milk, which is 5 ounces times 5 times times 2 days equals 50
11:43ounces.
11:44One day, Olivia put Jordan down to nap.
11:47But 10 minutes later, the baby started crying.
11:51The woman rushed to the bedroom to see what had happened.
11:54Oh no!
11:55The pacifier was gone.
11:57Olivia searched the crib and the floor, but it was nowhere to be found.
12:01Where could it be?
12:09Look at the baby's tiny fist.
12:11The pacifier is clutched in it.
12:13Jordan probably squeezed it while falling asleep.
12:16Olivia was washing 8 pairs of baby socks.
12:19When she hung them up to dry, she realized 1 sock was missing.
12:23How many socks are left?
12:25Can you help her count?
12:32Now, there are only 15 socks.
12:358 pairs minus 1 sock equals 15.
12:38Perfect!
12:39But now, we gotta help Olivia find the missing sock.
12:43Can you see it?
12:50Yep, it's on the baby's little foot.
12:53Olivia must have gotten distracted and put it on Jordan without realizing it.
12:58Once Olivia took Jordan for a walk in the park.
13:01There, she saw 2 women with strollers.
13:04One of them is a young mom, and the other is a nanny.
13:08Can you help Olivia figure out who the real mom is?
13:17The woman on the right is a nanny.
13:19She's holding a planner with the child's schedule.
13:22Feeding times, naps, walks, activities, you know, stuff like that.
13:26The real mom doesn't need any notes, because she remembers everything.
13:30Or she thinks she does.
13:33When Olivia's kid grew a little bit, they got invited to their neighbor's child's birthday party.
13:38But when they came there, Olivia saw something very strange.
13:42Can you figure out what appeared strange to her?
13:53If you've noticed it, you're very observant.
13:55The woman seems to be filling the kids' cups with milk.
13:59But how is she doing it if the jug is actually empty?
14:03Ooh, what if she's an alien?
14:05Oops, wrong video.
14:06Never mind.
14:08One day, Olivia's 10-year-old niece visited them.
14:12To treat the kids, the woman cooked delicious pastries and left them on the kitchen table.
14:17Suddenly, her phone started ringing, and she left the children alone for a minute to answer it.
14:22When she came back, one of the pastries was missing.
14:25Olivia's niece said it was Jordan who took the pastry.
14:29But Olivia didn't believe her.
14:31Why?
14:38Jordan is too short not only to grab the pastry but to even reach the table.
14:43The girl must have eaten the pastry and is now trying to frame the kid.
14:48Olivia and Jordan were invited to another birthday party.
14:51Look at the food the hosts are treating them with and help the woman figure out which dish is safe
14:57for her kid.
15:03Well, I wouldn't risk eating this cake.
15:05It smells really bad.
15:07Flies are resting on these cookies.
15:09Ah, luckily, these apples look safe to eat.
15:13It's Jordan's first day at a nursery school.
15:16Both Olivia and the kid are excited, and they don't want to be late.
15:19But here's a problem.
15:21There are three paths leading to the school building.
15:24Please help Olivia choose the best way.
15:32The road on the left is blocked by a fallen tree further ahead.
15:36The path in the middle has an open maintenance hole, which can lead to an accident.
15:41At the same time, the road on the right looks pretty safe.
15:45They should pick this route.
15:48Olivia and Jordan were on the playground.
15:50Jordan was playing in the sand, and Olivia was watching him.
15:54Suddenly, the woman realized that one of the kid's toys was missing.
15:58It was an orange teddy bear.
15:59She looked around and saw only three other people around.
16:03Can you figure out who took the bear?
16:10It was that elderly man.
16:12Look, the teddy bear's paw is sticking out of his pocket.
16:15Who knows why he took it?
16:17Some years later, Olivia left Jordan alone at home for the first time and told him to be a good
16:22boy.
16:23But when she came back an hour later, she understood that the boy had done something he shouldn't have done.
16:29Look at the room attentively, and try to figure out what three things upset Olivia.
16:40First of all, look at those brown crumbs on the floor near the bed.
16:44Jordan ate some chocolate cookies.
16:46The TV remote is not in the same place as before.
16:50The boy must have taken it to switch on the TV and watch cartoons.
16:53And finally, he was in a creative mood.
16:56Look at that drawing on the wall near the door.
17:00Jordan's birthday is around the corner, and the boy asks Olivia to invite his best friend to the party.
17:06Olivia is confused.
17:08Jordan is a very outgoing kid and has loads of friends.
17:11He's especially close to these three children.
17:14Look at Jordan's room, and try to help Olivia figure out which kid is Jordan's best friend.
17:25It's this blonde boy.
17:27A kid's painting depicting him is hanging on the wall over Jordan's bed.
17:31Olivia invited not only Jordan's best friend, but also many other kids to her son's birthday party.
17:37When all of them showed up, she realized that one guest came uninvited.
17:42Can you spot the intruder?
17:49Look at this girl wearing a witch outfit.
17:52She was definitely going to a Halloween party.
17:54How did she end up at Jordan's birthday party?
17:58She was an alien.
18:01When it was time to bring in Jordan's birthday cake, Olivia was horrified.
18:05The cake was missing.
18:06The kids were all together and didn't leave the playroom, so it must be one of the parents who took
18:12the cake.
18:12Olivia switched on detective mode and soon understood who the thief was.
18:18Can you figure it out, too?
18:26It's this granny.
18:28Look at her blouse, that dark stain.
18:30Isn't it chocolate?
18:31She's the one who took the cake.
18:34Hey, we should introduce her to the grandpa who took the orange teddy bear.
18:37What do you think?
18:39At first, Olivia panicked, but luckily, she found the solution fast enough.
18:44She called the nearest bakery and ordered another cake.
18:47They said they would send one immediately and asked her to pick a delivery person.
18:51Look at these three delivery people and select the most trustworthy.
19:04This guy on the left has a cast on his arm.
19:07Not very convenient for riding a bike, is it?
19:10The girl on the left seems fine, but look at her bike.
19:13The front tire is flat.
19:14So, the man in the middle seems to be the safest bet.
19:18The party is over and Jordan is happy.
19:20He wants to count all the presents he's got.
19:23But, ooh, they're all over the place.
19:26Look at the room very carefully and try to spot all the gifts.
19:36One, two, three.
19:38These are easy to find.
19:39Ah, four.
19:40It's under the bed.
19:42Five and six.
19:43One is on the armchair and the other is under the pillow on the bed.
19:47And finally, seven.
19:48It's hiding on top of the wardrobe.
19:50Jordan is now old enough to start studying French.
19:54And Olivia is looking for a tutor for her boy.
19:57Look at these three professionals and help the woman pick the best one.
20:07Ah, look at this lady on the right.
20:10Her t-shirt has the Eiffel Tower and the word Franz on it.
20:14But the name of the country is written incorrectly.
20:16It should be spelled like this.
20:18What teacher doesn't know this?
20:20The man in the middle has a police badge on his shirt pocket.
20:23He must be a police officer.
20:25What is he even doing here?
20:27So the best and only option is this young girl on the left.
20:32Merci beaucoup.
