Personal Information Questionnaire or the PIQ form is the form that a candidate has to fill on his arrival. This questionnaire becomes the basis of the Personal Interview that the candidate has to face later. Hence, this form should be filled smartly and honestly as if you write untrue information in this form, then it may land you in trouble during the Personal Interview. For example, if you write in your PIQ form that you play football and in the PI, if the Interviewing Officer comes to know that you know nothing about football, then it will give a negative impact. Write carefully as questions will be asked to you from the interest that you write in your PIQ form.
For example, if you write that you like to read, then you must know names of books and of authors that you have read.
- In the beginning of the form, you have to fill in details like your name and your father’s name and your place of maximum residence. After that you have to write your present address with the approximate population of the city or town. Thus, it is important that you must know about your city, its population and also the special facts of your city ( it will help in the Personal Interview).
- After that you have to fill in details like, State and District, Religion, Whether SC/ST/OBC, Mother Tongue, DOB, If parents are alive, If not, then you have to mention your age during their death.
