Importance Of SSB Interview Training
Training is very important,
before I explain reasons; we must understand the concept of selection.
Selection is based on behavior through behavior we assess
personality of an individual. While assessing the personality we focus on 15 officers like
qualities.
1. Every individual possesses
these qualities but scale or levels vary from individual to individual. During
the course of SSB, through various tests you have to project or express your
qualities or you have to tell assessor that I have these qualities in me. If
you are not able to project yourself, how will the assessor know that you
possess 15 officer like
qualities?
2. So, training is important. If
provided by right person. Training helps in You learn the art of expressing or projecting
your qualities through – verbal expression, body language and actions. And also
nature of various tests is such that you do not come to know about your
performance. So it’s important that you should follow right approach for right test
which can be learnt through training You come to know your weaknesses. If you know
your weaknesses then only you can improve. When you go through the practice tests the
familiarity with SSB environment increases which helps in gaining confidence,
enhances your performance.
3. Second important issue is, human being has different
state of mind i.e. conscious or semi- conscious or unconscious. These states of
mind make him behave in different manner. Therefore, various tests used in
different techniques assesses how are you behaving in different state
of mind. To know your acceptable behavior it can only be achieved by
good quality of training.
4. Thirdly, you hear different
point of view from untrained people which leads to forming myths or wrong
opinion about selection system and you create wrong opinion about
your own capability which results into poor performance.
5. Fourthly, where ever you take
coaching you make sure that you are trained by ex-assessor.
6. Training makes sure that you
start believing in your own capabilities and you start knowing what my goal is
and what my role is.
