MY DATE WITH INTERVIEWING OFFICER AS NARRATED BY Cadet. B. Vineesh

RECOMMENDED FOR INDIAN ARMY

on 8th July I was called for interview
by the ssb president for  interview.It was my fourth day at the ssb, we were a group of 21 candidates, divided into three groups for Group.
All the test were over and I was told that my interview would be held at 1500 hours on 08th July. After an early lunch, I was a little tense, and was going through that days newspaper. I was the first candidate to be called for the interview after the lunch session.
After the bedding in questions, such as tell me about yourself, your hobbies and about my education, he came on to probing questions.
Vineesh, I see that you have completed your B.Sc Agriculture,two years ago. Why do you want to join the Army now?

Sir, before taking up my graduation, I was interested to persue a career in the civil services as an IPS Officer, but on joining the college Army NCC, my mind was attracted towards ARMY.


As I see from your PIQ, you have completed your degree , in 2014, why did you not appear for Army SSB earlier?



Sir, I has applied earlier, but my application was rejected due to the final year marksheet was not available, second time it was an error in the submission of my application.

In between these two years what where you doing?


I was preparing for CIVIL Services as well as CDSE. In the meanwhile I received the call for ssb, and that has brought me in front of you sir.



Why did you drop your IPS Preparation, have you last your confidence in yourself, or did you feel that your will fail in it?

Sir, As I told you earlier, my mind was drawn towards army during my NCC Days. I do have confidence in ability to crack IPS, after two years of trg. I have already cleared my Prelim and was preparing for the main when I got the call letter.


In what way the Civil Services and the Army are different?

Sir, in both these services, the candidates serve the public, in civil services they mingle with civilians and serve among the civil populus, but in army we are away from civil population and guard the country from the front line.

Then the question went on the NCC camps and then to National and International News.

A few questions about the Nuclear Supplier Group and why Indian entry in NUC senario was vetted by China.
