How To Crack SSB In 1st Attempt

Tips by Tashi Mishra Sep 14, 2015 0

Every not-recommended, or as some prefer to say conference out, candidate

knows the pain of being a repeater. You are immediately segregated from the
rest of the group and put into a separate group. Sometimes the instructions also
are not repeated for you, telling you that you must already be knowing it all. With
each passing attempt, you feel it is becoming more and more difficult to get
recommended. So why not eliminate all of these issues by cracking the SSB
interview in the very first attempt. Getting what you want in the first try is a
feeling out of the world. So here are some tips which will help you in cracking the
SSB in the very first attempt itself:

1. Be YOURSELF: It is very likely that you will try all the means to get to know
the SSB. Youll leave no stone unturned to get the success tips and listen
to the experience of people you know. What you dont understand in all of
this is that while listening to their experiences, their views, you tend to
form a view like them. This makes you lose your originality. The most
important thing in SSB is being you. They take you for who you are, and
not for who you try to become. Thus being original and genuine is very
important.

2. Honesty, the best policy, yet the worst practice: It is good to be honest,
you should be honest with the whole procedure of SSB. However being too
upfront is not at all advisable. Maintain the gap of interviewer and
candidate, and dont try to become over friendly. A basic level of
abstraction will definitely help you and so you try to speak only as much is
required.
 3. Getting coached or not, thats your decision: Taking a coaching or not is up
to you. If you feel you have the time and money, then you can go for a
good coaching. However be very selective in choosing the institute. One
good thing about coaching is that you get good exposure and get familiar
with the whole procedure. However on the other hand it may fiddle with
your psychology and you might write coached responses. So coaching is
good if you can simply take it as guidance and let it not fiddle with your
mind.

4. Good groups are made not given: The idea of getting a good group is
very wrong. Every group is good, provided you fit in. I agree some are
totally chaos and some are super dull, but that is where leadership comes
into action. That is the moment where you can be the star of your group.
So it is in your hand to turn your group into the one with most selections.

5. Nothing matters, only you: You should know about yourself, your
surrounding and your near and dear ones very deeply. So be prepared to
answer any such questions. They will not reject you if cant answer a
single question related to the forces or the current affairs, however they
will reject you if you cant answer questions related to yourself. So self-
introspection is the key.
