Paradigm ias academy : Preparing IAS interview

After all the preparation and hard work comes the final stage i.e., interview. Many a times, students clear the preliminary and the mains but fail at the last stage. Anyhow, nobody wants to end up with this outcome. Hence, it’s important to note that the secret is to start for preparations for the interview along with the written test.

You are required to firmly and confidently put forth your point in the interview. This desires to develop the habit of debating and discussing issues with friends or parents. Listen to the current affairs programmes and learn to organize thoughts the way the participants do. Also, develop interests and hobbies so that you are able to answer convincingly. Understand the current affairs and the issues behind the events. Remember that the interview is not a cross examination but a natural and purposeful conversation. It is an opportunity to reveal the mental qualities of a candidate.

Since the specialized knowledge is already tested in written examination, the idea behind the interview is to analyze the social traits of a person and his personality as suited to a career in the Civil Services. There is a rare chance of you being selected if you lay the impression of a bookworm. The candidate is desired to exhibit an intelligent interest in events happening around him so that he appears to be a complete personality.

Owing to all the above mentioned points, one is bound to think whether to join a coaching centre or not. This is a very frequently asked question and there is a lot of confusion as to which is the best institute to opt for. At, Paradigm IAS Academy, we suggest that joining the best IAS institute in Pune is helpful in the sense that one develops the discipline of attending regular classes. As being Best IAS classes in Pune an instructor may be available who can give an opinion about the answers written by a candidate. At the same time, the candidate will meet like-minded people with whom he can develop the habit of debating and discussion. However, the coaching centre must be chosen with care: the instructor must be erudite enough to be able to guide students. If he is not well read, the chances of guiding others would be diminished.

It must also be remembered that preparation for the optional subjects must be done on one’s own, as it is unlikely that any coaching centre would be able to do justice to all the subjects.
