o Dress up decently and formally with comfortable outfits so that you don’t get conscious or

diverted and you can properly concentrate in the interview.

Causes of Failure in SSB Interview

Interview is one of the trickiest and most important part of SSB, the same applies to GTO’s and
Psych Tests!! Well jokes apart what I mean to say is that nothing in SSB is of a less important hence

you should give your best in every sphere. But there are certain things in Interview which may for
sure chuck out your chances of recommendation. These are:

1. Bad Posture and Dress: Your way of walking into the room, sitting on the chair and your dress
matters. If you are walking stealthily, wearing an inappropriate dress and putting up a gloomy

face that will sure cast a bad impression You are supposed to walk confidently (not proudly), in
an erect and straight manner sit straight on the chair meant for you. You can wear a formal

dress in which you are comfortable mostly a light shirt and a dark trouser.
2. Lack of confidence: When you step in your face should gloom with confidence. If you are
looking unduly nervous or worried then it will create an adverse impact. Slight nervousness is
normal but not much. Remember you have got nothing to lose, hence chuck out all worries and

enjoy the interview.
3. Gullibility: This means that you are bad in defending your opinions; the IO can easily mold

your views to his own desire. This is a case of rejection. Firstly you should be logical in your
opinion and once you are sure then you must stick to your ideas however if you find that you
have chosen a wrong side then you can agree with the IO but you must firstly choose a right
opinion which can come only if you are logical.
