I got an offer from Bloomberg right out of college before going to my masters. The last interview was fairly grilling, in a social way, not technical questions.

The hardest question after I mentioned my interests in business was why I wouldn't start a company right after getting a job. At the time I answered truthfully: I thought I needed experience at a real job before knowing what it takes to start a company.

Since then, I'm convinced I could have had a fair shot at success by starting a company on the spot.

So the biggest question I would be asking if I were Google: why don't you want to work for yourself right away?
