What to prepare for interview?
From the 2012’s recruitment round, many Players had posted their interview experiences in the comments below the following article:
https://mrunal.org/2012/08/studyplan-acio.html/comment-page-5#comments
so just go through them to get a feel of how the interview goes. Note: every page contains 50 comments and interview experience sharing starts from comment page number 5.
Some tips (from those comments)
- 60% on your biodata. (Why do you want to join IB? Educational background, terminology, hobbies)
- 30% on current issue (mostly national and regional. + some current related to neighboring countries from IB/security/terrorism angle.)
- 10% intelligence system of India.
- If you are not fluent in English practice it, as sometimes panel member may insist that you answer a particular question in english.
- For some people it was for 5 mins and for some it went upto 20 mins.
- In the panel, one member will be observing you and taking notes.
(for more, go through the comments in the link I gave above.)

@rohin saluja…..what do you mean by useless arts degrees….Do you think arts degrees are useless???? Every degree is useful..right

brother did they ask you about whether you know hindi or not.i have interview on 18 .
Venuew: Hyderabad, Dt: 15 Jan 2014, (2 out of 3 members are IPS)
I am the last but one candidate (47th out of 48) & felt like stress interview. Its more than rapid fire round. The max time i got is 15 seconds, for only one question. I felt like crushed to powder in 10 minutes.
M1 & M2 are firing questions and M3 is observing my moments/behaviour.
1. M1 & M2 appreciated at my attire after I entire room. And made (positive tone) comments
2. Why did you wore a tie?
3. Tell me about yourself (i consumed 3 minutes)
4. What is Geosynchronous Orbit(Mem1), Its elevation(Mem2), Why that elevation is required (M3)?
5. Why IB?
6. You already served country in some manner, then why IB again?
7. If you were asked to opt for your posting(given no other choice/no flexibility) Rajasthan, Himachal (as you did trekking) pradesh, Your homestate (Andhra Pradesh), which one do you choose & why?
8. A train engine will have 7 types of BREAKS. Describe them (Shock laga laga laga shock laga+Goose bumps..I belong to IT Subjects). Just now googling for answers..
9. Discretionary powers (total 3) of President
10. Emotional Intelligence Vs Intellectual Intelligence…Differences (Most debated questio.. for 3 minutes atleast.. All 3 members stressed me by giving different examples. I felt like i won this question in the last.)
My personal overall satisfaction is 60%. Wherever i could not recollect/dont know answers, i accepted the same. Finally, it is a nice experience, though i felt i could have done better. First thing that came in my mind after my interview is, “WHAT HAPPEND TO ME during THOSE 10 MINUTES?” :-) :-)
Wish you all good luck. You may mail me your doubts to
can i have your gmail id ??
i want to ask something
I had my interview on 15th jan 2015 , pabu dham , delhi:
1) questions asked :
a) internal security issues
b) profile related questions
c) why do you want to join IB and how can u contribute to the organization ?
d) a situation based question
2) It was short and crisp .
3) A guy from north east kept on staring at me all the time .
I din’t seem to me like a real interview . It was more like a formality .
Overall time 5-10 mins .
results kab tak aayega bhai logo ?
hi.. my writen total was 84 but could complete the essay..
not selected for interview
please suggest books for essay..
and which book do you use for the same?
Prateek I would suggest you go for wide reading such as newspapers and magazines such as india today and frontline. The essay topics usually are issue based which require in depth knowledge about things happening around. Essay books are good but limit the person’s choice of reading. Better go in for editorials in the newspapers.
First of all thank you..
i am rigrously reading every thing what you have suggested..suggest me a book where i can find essays so that i know how to frame an essay.
date correction ! its 2014 , zaada futuristic ho gaya
I had my interview on 16 at bapu dham, delhi. PANEL-3
3 persons were there, one was from north east but he didnt ask anything.
1) question related to previous job profile
2)which exams are you giving presently and any success.
dont tell them about truckloads of exams you are giving
3)what are internal security issues in india
told them about communalism,casteism, fundamentalism, seperatist movement, naxalism,terrorist attacks.
4)they asked about kashmir issue
i recommend u all to atleast study about kashmir and north eastern states issues and about naxalism and solution.they are frequently asking about these topics.
5)they asked how to extract information about a guy whose name is known but his location is a very large area say RK PURAM.
i told them by getting his no. we can get his address or location or search his names in social media sites or get some information from local police station or through bank accounts.
i dont know what i said was correct.

i had my interview on 15 jan at bapu dham new delhi, it was exhausting and frustating to wait for ur turn , most candidates started sharing their experiences of civil services mains 2013 , after much await i was called for the interview and made to sit in bitter cold outside the interview room in open .i was shivering when my name was called out , entered the room shivering , wished the panel afternoon but was really confused whether it was past 12. as i was called at 11.59 am , anyways the interview started
m1 keep scrolling my papers after much hassle he asked.. u did ur graduation in 2011 from manipal in in … i joined him and said yes sir from manipal in karnataka
m1… that means u would be employed somewhere ?
me… no sir , after my graduation i started to prepare for civil services
m1… so wats ur status vis a via exams
me… sir , i wrote my third mains exams in december and i could not clear mains in my previous two attempts
m1… but u must be hopeful this time?
me… yes sir , { but to suggest my seriousness in job } i added .. sir with changing pattern almost year its becoming more unpredictable every year
m1… wat changes ?
me… i told him the new pattern
m1… while looking in my papers he complimented.. u have a nice handwriting shashank, i thanked him
m2 to m1… show me his papers
back to m1… so shashank wat are the internal security threats india is facing ?
me… sir , militancy in jandk , left wing extreamism,naxalism,insurgency , religious fundamentalism,and cyber security which is going to big problem in future and apart from these anything which is against the national interest is a problem to india
m1.., ok tell me wat role does ib plays in public service because if i will ask u why u want to join ib , u will say public service so just tell how ib serves?
me.. {confused i bit , did have much points} sir ib job is to collect data and extract information useful for national interest
m1… u mentioned naxalism as a problem .. wat is it?
me…explained him in short, reasons behind etc
m1…but why naxalism is concentrated in few pockets ?
me… sir , its due to lack of proper police control and other govt. agencies, gave him the example of andhra grey hound force and their success in controlling naxalism
m1…shashank u must be aware of the demand for smaller states , wats the recent demand
me … yes sir , telangana
m1… wats ur opinion on it ?
me… sir if we look at uttarakhand , jharkhand and chattisgarh, all these states are doing fine in some respect and falling on others , so creating smaller states is good uptill they are economically viable and administratively controlable and not just going with popular demand. gave example of how uttarakhand response in disaster and how jharkhand and chattisgarh are politically unstable
m1… chattisgarh is politically stable ?
me… sorry sir , yes it is but it has not grown well the it should have.
m1. wat are other similar demands
me .. they are demanding a separate state in sikkim
m1… sikkim?

m3… u have all athourity .
me … sir first of all , i will check the police station if he has some records , than electrol office , other government agencies later i will use local policing {fumbled a bit}
m1 ,, thanku shashank , u may go
I dont know what others feel but they are not calling names alphabetically.What is their criteria of categorising candidates ,that is who is to be called on 13th,14th or 24th.Are they calling names on the basis of decreasing order of marks scored by candidates.Can any one throw some light in this regard.
by their date of birth.. :)
I dont think its by date of birth. Mine is in July and interview was on 13th (first day) so it doesnt make sense. I guess its random. or maybe even by roll no.
By roll no. (which in turn depends on registration no.) !! ;)
Interview got completed today.
They just asked me one quest how do u protect a computer froma a threat n a network???
That’s t….interview got over…

mine interview today.there were 4 members each asked question turn wise.started with a senior officer sitting in just front of me.which part of history you like most i responded modern as it deals with freedom struggle.any philospher view on internal security. what kind of freedom our country required in terms of internal security i took this answer in very wrong direction and was badly entangled in my own web .problem in srilanka (tamilians issue).recently in how many states assembly elections held name them . tell something about recent riots do you think people are communal and sectarian .reason why it got aggravated .lastly somebody from north east asked mizoram border which neighbouring country.in all not satisfied with my interview performance.
10 min interview in which they askd- (I am a Petroleum Engineer)
* Why are you not working in petroleum industry?
* How will you use your petroleum engg knowledge in IB?
* Why is Oil important in International diplomacy?
* Where is Oil produced in India? Which rank Rajasthan has?
* Which places in Assam produce oil ?
* where was India’s 1st oil well drilled?
* What do u knw abt IB?
* What is Naxalite Movement?
* How is it concerned to our country in present context and how to take care of it?
* Does govt always listen to citizens?
* How to make govt listen?
* What have you done apart from studying?
* Have you taken any other competetive exams? (I said Yes which i think i shudnt hv said )
I was able to answer all the questions and satisfy them. I think they were reserved about candidates taking other exams but still if I had said NO they would know i was lying.
@ashok,
I didn’t understand ur last sentence,,I.e reserve for people writing other exam,, plz elaborate .. thanks. ashok.
I mean they dont like or dont want to hire people writing other exams because they have a high probability of quitting the job in case they get selected in civil services etc.
Your interview was held at which place?
Are you from Rajasthan?
Interview went on for 10 minutes. Cordial, calm panel, mostly. 3 gentlemen and a lady of which 2 male members were responsive. The Panel head (I suppose) seemed annoyed somehow, despite being calm.
Note – I’m an advocate.
Questions
1. Contributions of Ambedkar to Indian freedom struggle – I concentrated on the Constitution drafting part and threw light on social justice, mentioning that he came to the freedom struggle scene at a later stage.
2. November 2008 incident in the Madras law college – conceded the existence of communalism and caste based violence in the society in general.
3. Vishaka judgment, why is the SC backtracking on its own judgment’s essence? – Mentioned the Ganguly J Swatanter Kumar J issue and said SC is making amends.
4. The female member asked about NLSA which I heard as NELSA and said I am not aware. I should have clarified on that. My bad
5. I was asked about my plans twice – once even insisted on taking law as my career as the panel found me *so good at law* (meh) – I knew they were trolling me – said my aim is CSE both the times and that I’m interested in policy level research. (the panel head didn’t like my answer, I suppose)
Overall the interview went well with many nods and smiles. I hope the result isn’t the case of operation success but patient is no more kind!
Good luck to the aspirants!
