Indian Army Officer, Indian Army Interview Questions and Answers

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Depending upon your specific answers , the interviewing officer may further probe you to check if you are bluffing hence do not tell wrong things lest you get caught in a trap. Remember, there are no set answers to any questions. Your presence of mind, knowledge , logical and practical approach to problems / questions posed to you can help you in scoring well . Speak to the point , be attentive, look at the interviewing officer and not around , the more you reveal , the more you will be probed , do not contradict your own statements, do not criticise your friends , teachers , parents or colleagues for your own failures or shortcomings or weaknesses etc . Never expose your weak points yourself . Sit comfortably and keep assuring yourself that "ALL IS WELL".
