About 60 percent of adults (18+) Americans have a Facebook account. But we're talking San Francisco here--the Valhalla of Nerdery and all things internet--so lets bump that up to 80 percent (this 30 percent increase is justified by the fact that SF is 30 percent geekier than anywhere else...). For purposes of the question, let's limit this explicitly to the city of San Francisco--not the entire Bay Area. At night, SF is about 800,000 people strong. Let's assume a little over 20 percent of that population is either too old or young to use Facebook (it would be higher if mothers hadn't taken off FB...). Let's say that leaves 600,000 people (note: working with round numbers is better for these sorts of things). But then we have to take into account the fact people commute to and from SF! Nerds pour out into the South Bay, suits (e.g., bankers) come in from the East. I suspect the city population swells by 50 percent. If we toss in tourists and conference goers and everything else, 1 million people are in San Francisco at 2:30pm on a Friday. Eighty percent of those people use Facebook, so we have 800,000 possible Facebook users at that time. The final step is to figure out what percent of the 800,000 are using Facebook at 2:30pm. It's later in the day so I suspect it will be higher than at 11:00am. But I don't really have a good baseline to judge. When I walk around my office, roughly 10 to 20 percent of screens I see as around the office are on some non-work related thing at any time. Let's call that 15 percent and assume that all non-work related surfing by FB users includes some sort of use of FB. That means 120,000 people are using FB at 2:30pm on Friday in San Francisco. Less

Answer?... more than are using Google+

All of them. Facebook's corporate HQ is in Menlo Park, a suburb of San Francisco. So, anyone using Facebook is using "Facebook in San Francisco". Less

they will meet 30 minutes later
↳
combined travel speed of the trains is (80 + 50) = 130 km/h, which means they will meet after 65 / 130 hours, which is 0.5 hrs or 30 mins Less
↳
Since it was not explicitly specified in the question, I'd elaborate that there are different cases. If the trains are moving towards each other then the relative speed is 80+50 = 130 km/h. so it will take them (65/130 = 0.5) hours to meet. Another case is they are going in the same direction, here we have two cases: The fast train is chasing the slow train, the relative speed will be (80-50 = 30 km/h) so they will meet after (65/30= 2 hours and 10 minutes). Or the slow train can be chasing the fast train and then they will never meet (assuming it is infinity non-looping track). Less

My experience in this position right now is that I also make purchase orders and I receive and I make sure that I let the customers know if anything is on backorder and ask for ETA so I can have the correct date Less
↳
I also sent out an email to the employees to inform them on everything that is on back stock so just in case if they have someone else who would like to purchase that same item they will already know in advance that is going to be on backorder so they can let the client know just in case if that's something that they still wanted to do Less

For SVM you will get asked about 'Dive Deep' many times. Most of your answers need a lot of details, but if you plan 3 examples for each leadership principle you'll be ok. It is A LOT of prep, as in 40+ hours, but it is needed. Use the STAR structure, as they will ask. Less
