SSB Interview is a 5 days process by including or excluding the day of reporting which depends of the type of entry, few candidates specially freshers are confused about the day of screening and day of reporting. Although one should have a proper information of 5 days process so that he/she can plan his/her journey accordingly.This post will tell you whether or not your day of reporting and screening is same.We will discuss the day of reporting by considering the different entries.
Q1. Screening test will be conducted on the day of reporting or next day ?
Ans: Again it depends on the type of entry and the instructions/timings written on your call letter, but the best way to remember is, whenever your reporting time is early in the morning like 0600 hours or 0700 hours then your screening is going to be conducted on the same day. AFSB [Air Force Selection Board ] follows this process, they also conduct the Psychological Test on the same day itself, so in AFSB Screening and Psychological test happen on the day of reporting.
Whenever your reporting time is in afternoon, like 1400 hours or 1500 hours then your screening test will take place on the next day of reporting, but you will go through the documents checks and form filling on the day of reporting. Mostly Indian Army and Navy follows this pattern, but again it may change like happens in TGC and SSC technical entries mostly, for TGC and SSC Tech, sometimes reporting time is early in the morning and the screening test happens on the same day but not the Psychological test, like AFSB.
Q2. When will be my conference ??
Ans: This might be very important to know if you are travelling from long distance and wanted to plan your journey conveniently. If you have the exact info of SSB Interview schedule then you can book your return journey tickets correctly for your own comfort
