Since there are 3 switches and corresponding 3 bulbs, click on first switch, after 5 minutes put the first one off and click third switch on and walk into the room. Touch the bulbs. The one which is hot corresponds to the first switch . The bulb which is cold corresponds to second switch and the lighted one corresponds to the third switch.

Correct me if I am wrong.

this is a provoking question: it is not said that these are incandescent bulbs, so we cannot assume that one of them gets hotter than the other. If this is how interviewer formulated the question tell him that there is NO solution ggg
