IAS INTERVIEW GUIDANCE PROGRAM


IAS Personality Test SYLLABUS by UPSC

The candidate will be interviewed by a Board who will have before them a record of his career. He will be asked questions on matters of general interest.

The object of the interview is to assess the personal suitability of the candidate for a career in public service by a Board of competent and unbiased observers. The test is intended to judge the mental calibre of a candidate.

In broad terms this is really an assessment of not only his intellectual qualities but also social traits and his interst in current affairs. Some of the qualities to be judged are mental alertness, critical powers of assimilation, clear and logical exposition, balance of judgement, variety and depth of interest, ability for social cohesion and leadership, intellectual and moral integrity.

The technique of the interview is not that of a strict cross-examination but of a natural, though directed and purposive conversation which is intended to reveal the mental qualities of the candidate.

The interview test is not intended to be a test either of the specialised or general knowledge of the candidates which has been already tested through their written papers.

Candidates are expected to have taken an intelligent interest not only in their special subjects of academic study but also in the events which are happening around them both within and outside their own state or country as well as in modern currents of thought and in new discoveries which should rouse the curiosity of well educated youth.

Article: How To Prepare For IAS Interview


HOW TO SCORE GOOD MARKS IN INTERVIEW?

You may call it interview but the more appropriate term is the personality test. This is the final stage of the examination. This   is very crucial in putting your rank up or down the final list. Therefore one should take this final step very seriously.

The interview shouldn’t normally require any extra preparation other than being aware of issues and especially those related to one’s home state. Biodata is most important. 

One should prepare his Bio-data, Home-state/town, Socio-Economic-Political problems of India, options subjects and subjects of graduation/post-graduation, hobbies.

Personality Development Programme and some mock interview sessions are extremely helpful. 

One should be prepared on the information mentioned in the Biodata. 

While facing the interview Board, the most important attributes that count are : calmness and smile on the face, natural tone and expression. 

One needs to be honest and say sorry if not sure about any fact.

Asked yourself why I wanted to join this job? Why did I leave a good career or job (If any)? Work on your Bio-data and try to make as far away question as possible. 

The interview depends upon with what frame of mind one appears before the Interview panel. 

Be confident, Interview is not question-answer session, in real sense it is purposeful conversation. Speak freely during the interview. 

Make short notes of all the current events in the preceding six months.

You have to concentrate on the following areas : 
1) Background including education, family etc. 
2) Home state/dist. 
3) Subjects studied at graduation/post-graduation level. 
4) Hobbies & interests. 
5) About India and World. (Social-Political- Economic).

Personality test also means you have to dress well in a formal outfit, but again there is no hard & fast rule about it.

It is very useful to join a good Mock-Interview sessions.

We made out stand very clear on contentious issues so that we might not be trapped in by the board. 

It is very important to think about immediate issues and problems systematically and give cogent and unambiguous answers during the interview, and the essential requirements for these are familiarity with a wide range of issues, clarity of thought and a systematic, though not rigid, outlining of the various features and aspects in involved, together with atleast some original, convincing arguments. 

Excessive emphasis (like ready-made answers) on coaching mars candidates easiness and originality. 
The interest/hobbies indicated should be genuine. 

Tensions and excitements have to be channelised to a creative expression and accommodative answers. 

One should not be too rigid or too soft regarding his/her opinions. It is better to be on the side of flexibility rather than that of rigidity.

Wish you all the best !

TOPPER'S FEEDBACK

PRASAD AKKANOURU, IPS who secured 220 marks in interview says "Interview Training programme at Career Quest is not run-of-the-mill, where every candidate is considered as the same. Rather, it believes in working on each candidate separately according to his need, with extremely useful mock sessions, on the spot analysis and right feedback. I was able to remove negative points and built-up on my positives in a very short period of time.
Career Quest is the right place for sincere candidates to help realise their dreams."


ANURIMA SHARMA, IRS who secured 205 marks in interview says "All the major and minor care for Interview was taken by Kabeer Sir. The nitty gritties and intricacies of the interview were imparted to us by Sir, in a very positive, simple and lucid manner.
Not just in the interview, but off the UPSC Bhavan also, I am a changed person. The very success of mine is all in all credited to Kabeer Sir.
One may have a plethora of knowledge but if it’s not showcased properly, it’s futile. Kabeer Sir mentored me, to hone and polish my skills for the same.
I am really grateful to him for his ‘priceless’ guidance. I am honoured to be associated with Sir and Career Quest."
