What is SSB Interview: Detailed Explanation

The candidate is interviewed by the President, Vice-President or the interviewing officer of the SSB Board to assess the personality of the candidate in order to know if he or she is having enough officer-like qualities to get into the Indian Armed Forces. Personal Interview is one of the deciding factors for defence aspirants after clearing the written exam which finally makes a way to become an officer in the Indian armed forces.

The SSB Interview can last from anything to about 20 minutes to 1 hour and 30 minutes. The Interviewing Officer starts talking in a very relaxed manner with you at the start and then starts asking questions based on your PIQ. The questions are generally asked in a rapid-fire sequence and about 8-10 questions will be asked in one go. The candidate has to answer the questions in the same sequence as asked. In between the Interviewing Officer may ask some other questions as well to get some things clarified. The IO may ask for 5 – 6 rapid-fire sequences during the interview.
