The interview is the most important factor which plays a decisive role in the selection of a candidate in SSB Interview. The aim of this conversation is to assess leadership qualities or officer-like behavior. The question in the interview is directed so as to allow the candidate to automatically portray his officer-like behavior.
In the interview, the interviewing officer looks for the training potential of the candidate. In an SSB interview what matters is the candidate’s knowledge, common sense, and power of expression. In the interview the candidate who is able to speak fluently and express himself clearly marks high. Cut at the same time your behavior should also fall within the OLQs.
Rapid Fire Questions is SSB
