My Target Service Selection Board (SSB)

Write about your strength and weaknesses?

The answer totally depends upon your personality and presentation of one’s personality in his mind.
If one will have a good understanding about his personality, he will definitely perform better. The
most important thing for a personality test to be remembered is one should have a good
introspection of his/her personality to know and understand your strength and weakness much
better. When you are writing your strengths make sure you are mentioning all the strengths which
you think is most comparable to officer like qualities. Coming to your weakness, mention the
weakness on which you are working on. If you have some weakness that you think can be an
impediment in your selection, work on it. Try to talk to your parents, friends, and teachers and find
out more about your weaknesses and make them in your strengths.

The most important thing for a personality test to be remembered is one should have a good
introspection of his/her personality to know and understand your strength and weakness much
better. But when it comes to written make sure that you write only those strengths which are most
comparable to officers like qualities. Think of how your personality will help you in your job. Now
coming to weaknesses, mention only those weaknesses that you are working on and never write
those weaknesses that can affect your selection. If you are a kind of person who works on his
weaknesses, its fine, but if you are a procrastinate type, who overlook his weaknesses and says to
work on his weakness but never does, then either work on it or otherwise don’t write it. Try to talk to
your parents, friends, and teachers and find out more about your weaknesses and make them in
your strength. For example- In my case, one of person in my peer circle said in his interview that
one of his strength is he always choose his friends wisely & cautiously because he believes that if he
chooses his friends wisely, he’ll not be getting into bad company and will be successful, Which
interprets him as opportunist, unfriendly, selfish.

What your friends say about you?

Now if you’ve friends you must have like them for most of their qualities and dislike them for their
mistakes. The same thing goes with your friends. Try to write the positive traits of your personality.
To elaborate more, you can give examples – How they helped in winning your battles of personal
failures to convert them into success? Why do you like them? How you help them in achieving their
aims. I would suggest that if you think that you are friendly in nature then you must remember names
of all the people in your group and their likes and dislikes. Give examples how you help during their
problem, during their ups and downs.

Write about your friends’ strengths and weaknesses?

Ans- Now if you’ve friends you must have like them for most of their qualities and dislike them for
their mistake, try to write as many positive qualities of your friends. To elaborate more, you can give
examples – How they helped in winning your battles of personal failures to convert them into
success? Why do you like them? How you help them in achieving their aims. I would suggest that if
you think that you are friendly in nature then you must remember names of all the people in your
group and their likes and dislikes. Give examples how you help during their problem, during their ups
and downs.
