This is really a logical one.
If I were in his shoes I'd give two answers, thus:
logically, in Mathematics, depending on the base system, 1+1 is two calculating in base 10.
On the brighter side, I think 1 + 1 is 1. Every organization need to have employees working towards a common goal, which requires cooperations, innovations, shatring ideas e.t.c. In this context, team work cannot be over- or under-emphasized. Many sticks make a broom. Therefore, 1 + 1 is one!

OsamedeHazard10:

This question, like most interview questions, is not a function of right or wrong. I want to believe the interviewer wants to understand how the applicants thinks. I would advise that one answers this question in context. Pick a particular context, give your answer and explain in that context. Brevity is also very important so dont just go off in a tangent

kevoh:
When asked such question, don't just go dumb/silent or give plain answer as 2 . Give a SMART 2 to 3mins response in that respect, for fvcksake you are a graduate act like one! 1+1 can be anything(e.g infinity), how you are able to convince me (the interviewer) that 1+1 is infinity is what I am after I.e your thought process.

Okay, this is my first time but I wanna share a confusing experience

I was preparing for the labour market about a year ago, after graduation, and having no clue even what my CV should look like and all

To cut the chase, I went online for possible interview questions and I stumbled on this 'guy's experience on an interview question that made me realise people think differently

The person in question said he went for an interview and was asked only 1 question, off course after the normal introduce yourself speech. The question was:

What is 1+1?

He said, as to this simplicity, he was confused, as you know how all these logical questions you're not supposed to assume is as easy as it looks but he was famished at this level.

To cut it short ,I was following the tread and found out saying '2' might have gotten this guy the job or maybe not. In a nutshell, he said nothing as he asked for the interviewer to explain and he did nothing but to repeat the question that

'What is 1+1?

He couldn't answer this and didn't get a call back.

Now am asking you guys how y'all will approach this question and what will be your response?

Interviewer: what is 1 + 1. My Response: the addition of 1 to 1 or summation of 1 to 1. Reason: the interviewer didn't ask for the result. of 1+1. MY OPINION

Reminds me of giringori. He said in arithmetic class, one day the teacher told them "two plus two equal to four". The next day same teacher told them "one plus three equal to four". So he then stood up and asked the man "excuse me sir, what is the full meaning of plus?"
And the man asked him to get out of the class
