While filling in the application
form for the Civil Services Preliminary
and Main
examination, candidates are also asked to fill in their preferences for their
appointment in various services once they qualify.
According to statistical
results, people who score more than 60% enjoy a huge possibility getting
into the service of their own choice, once they qualify in the interview.
About 90% of the candidates, who qualify for the interview, score
around the range of 55%. If you are able to score more than 58%, it is quite
likely that you would be appointed in a Class I
service.
Confidence, self-assurance, tact and diplomacy play a key role for a
successful interview test. The selectors in the interview panel analyse the
thought process of the candidates and their ability and presence of mind to
tackle tricky questions with diplomacy, without provoking controversies or
attacking a particular section of a society with prejudice or racist
remarks.
Candidates can score well in the interview if they keep themselves
updated about the core socio-economic issues, foreign relations and current
affairs of our country and converse about the relevant issues with clarity of
expression.
