BEING IGNORANT CAN BE A BLESSING, CAN IT BE A TACT.
BEING SMART IS PART OF CHARACTER, CAN IT BE A TACT
BEING KNOWLEDGEABLE CAN BE A PART OF YOUR INTELLECT, CAN IT BE A FACADE
Mock interview sessions are the more desirable preparation method. It is simulation of an actual interview session. Not all but only few coaching institutes do provide the physical environment and quality of panel memberto conduct such sessions.
It is advisable that student attend few mock sessions before the actual interview but only where the quality of panel is good. This will help student as—
(i) Student will be thoroughly questioned quality-wise.
(ii) The body language as well as expression shall get analyzed by the experts.
(iii) The feedback provided is in timely manner and can be an effective transformation experience. This is because it is first such experience for the aspirant.
(iv) Because in such a setup, a hierarchy is presented, the student thus realizes the importance of hierarchy and present shim self to the etiquettes, and hierarchy.
All this can be beneficial only if a candidate has opted for a good institution. Though there may be many popular institutes, but the actual quality does go missing in most of them as a good number of them host the interview programme only to gather the data.
Mock interview sessions do have same limitations:
1. Since, they are conducted very close to actual interview, many students may not get adequate time to best utilize it.
2. Students at times are not receptive and many don't take the interview process seriously. Thus, the actual motto gets lost.
3. In most coaching institutes, the conditions are such that panel members can just give suggestion and may not force the candidate to bring the required change.
4. Many students have inhibition, viewpoints and perception. Having qualified Mains exam, the student may not be receptive, as they feel overconfident.
5. Some involuntary speech and character traits could not be corrected or noticed, if the panel member do not have adequate competency.
6. 30 minutes is too less a time to bring about a major reform in the candidates who require such a reform. For cosmetic changes it can be good.
7. In 30 minutes the number of questions are only limited and not very diverse, despite the best efforts of the board and the panel.
8. In 30 minutes the candidate may show only one part of the personality, while the other part goes completely unnoticed by the board, as the candidates will only show the best part of their personality. In case the board scratches that part it may reveal something else.
9. Above all, the objective may get lost, and the purpose of Mock Session may get defeated if the perceptions of the candidates and the perception of the Interviewer do not match. If the Interviewer only equips the students with some answers to be different for the sake of being different, it will be disastrous for the candidate. Also, if the candidates wants only a cosmetic change, then ultimately the students will be at a high risk. Cosmetic changes if exposed can be really fatal, as the UPSC Board members come to know that the candidate has presented a facade to the Board.
