10 Tips To Dress Up For SSB Interview Success

Being perfectly qualified or possessing all the required skills and talents won’t necessarily land you up at your dream job. Wearing inappropriate or outlandish attire to an interview can potentially cost you the job. Your clothing can influence your chances of making through the SSB interviews. Before you utter a single word at SSB, you have already made an impression by the way you have dressed up for the occasion. So, always dress your best when interviewing.
Consider these tips for immaculate dressing at the SSBs.

oir test and ppdt
  • Colour and Appearance of the dress: Choose a Solid Colour That Isn’t Distracting.
    Choose a colour for your dress which is pleasant and doesn’t prick in people’s eyes. You want your assessors to focus on you, not on your pink paisley shirt, right? So, instead of picking busy, printed patterns; choose solid colours that reflect your personality and aren’t too loud or too dull. Stick to brighter hues, choose dress materials that cause less sweat and bad odour and you are comfortable in. Avoid unmanageable dressing that knocks your self-esteem and confidence down. Dress up in few colours at a time so that they blend and harmonise with each other.

10 Tips To Dress Up For SSB Interview Success

  1.  Shirt: Choose a shirt that’s light in colour, preferably white, because it suits for all occasions. Wear full sleeve shirts (three-fourth length or half sleeves do not give that formal look). Also, don’t fold the sleeves of your shirt at the interview panel. Don’t carry anything in your shirt’s pocket.
  2.  Trousers: Choose dark coloured trousers or pants which aren’t of loose or tight fitting and make you walk faster and free. Checked trousers also give a nice, decent appearance. Avoid stuffing your trouser pockets with things that give bulgy look.
  3.  Tie: Avoid flashy and lustrous ties, prefer ties made of silk material, as they are easy to fold and make a perfect knot. Remember to team up ties appropriately with the colour of your trousers or pants.
  4.  Shoes: Stick to black or brown formal shoes for PPDT, interview, psychology tests, and white PT shoes for the GTO tasks. Always polish your shoes before going for your tests. Choose shoes (black/brown ones) with lace because they give perfect look and grip while you walk, filling you with more confidence. Lady candidates can wear black flat belly shoes without any patterns or designs.
  5. Perfume: Avoid loud and overpowering perfumes because they really hinder the atmosphere of an interview, disperse irritating smell and distract assessors and your fellow mates. The purpose of the perfume or body spray should be to conceal your body odour. Choose perfumes of pleasant, gentle, and fresh fragrance. Lady candidates are especially requested to use mild perfumes. Spraying perfumes or sprays over your shirt may cause stains or marks which are visible when dried up and give bad impression. Try avoiding that.
  6. Other Accessories and Ornaments: Wear limited jewellery. Lady candidates should keep their jewellery and hair accessories to a minimum, and stick to those that are not flashy, or distracting. Stay simple. Don’t wear bracelets or other ornaments. Avoid wearing designer rings (wedding or engagement ring is fine).
  7. Hair Style: Neatly combed and well trimmed professional hair always gives an impressive and influential effect on your personality. Get a haircut prior to your SSB because flying hair during your tests would cause you discomfort. Lady candidates must tie their hair in a bun or if you have short hair, a neat pony tail or braid will work.
  8. Nails: Neatly trimmed and manicured nails form a good impression because your hands are always placed in your lap so they are easily noticeable for most of the time. Also, it reflects your personal hygiene organisation and management.
  9. Spectacles: Cleanse your glasses well before the tests so they don’t give you hazy and blurred vision and cause discomfort.
  10. Handkerchief: Always carry a clean handkerchief with you preferably of pure white colour (any light colour).
  • Play It Safe With Ink, Piercings, and Facial Hair:
    You must go through the rules for body tattoos, directed by the Armed Forces. So be watchful of the criteria of inking any part of your body. Try avoiding piercings in eyebrows or chins (For lady candidates, nose piercing is absolutely fine). Male candidates must shave before the interview and keep their moustache trimmed and shaped.
  • Pay attention to minute details:
    01-Your clothing should be neat, clean, and pressed.
    02-Make sure you have fresh breath. (Use mouth wash/freshener/Listerine)
    03-Lady candidates must avoid makeup and nail paints.
    04-Your hair must be neat, clean, and conservatively styled.
    05-Don’t wear cologne or aftershave.
    06-Wear white socks with the formal shoes.
    07-Maintain personal hygiene.
    08-Tuck in your shirts neatly.
    09-Wear simple and sober wrist watches.
    10-Avoid fancy belts, wear belts with buckles of appropriate colours.
    11-Avoid smoking before the interview.
    12-Clean your eye corners before the interview.
    13-Avoid chewing gums or candies during the tests.

P.S. Always wear your smile. Best dressing-up tip!

The last minute preparations are always necessary for performing well in the exam. But the sources to prepare for the exam in short span of time are limited, which should be precise and must cover maximum material in minimum time. The exam consists of 4 sections embedded in 2 papers. The exams cover English, G.K., Mathematics and Reasoning parts with a difficulty level equivalent to the AFCAT exam. The last minute preparation can be done using the following sources to ease your preparation.

Cracked SSB Interview In 1st Attempt From Bangalore

Cracked SSB Interview In 1st Attempt For OTA Chennai

Hello, I am Akash Kale from Mumbai. I would like to share my SSB experience with you. I am pursuing my graduation in Social Work from TISS, Tuljapur, Maharashtra. While I was in campus I was unaware of the procedure of joining defence. So it was like very blur dream for me and I was not focused on it. But one of my friends, Deepmala, suggested me to appear for CDS exam and also helped me in preparing for it. I somehow cracked the written part, but then the most important part was yet to come. I was totally blank about exactly what SSB is. I researched on this but ended up with the same results all around. I was confused like what they are actually looking for and still I am. Then I started following SSBCrack website and from there I got the reference of Dr. Cdr. Natarjan Sir’s Video Course. I ordered it and watched it. It gave me a clear idea about the SSB and what I am going to face in coming days. It also prepared me for the same.

 

Screening Test

I was nervous like others. Some candidates seemed very confident; looking at them makes us more nervous. So just focus on yourselves and don’t panic. Result was announced immediately after break and I was in, 20 were screened in. I was very happy thinking atleast I am going to stay for the next 5 days. But coming 5 days were more interesting than I thought.

Psych test:

I have heard that doing enough SRT, WAT and SDT will increase your chance of selection but while in test the time flies. In end I ended up doing only 28 SRT and 40 WAT, taking stress of this i screwed up my SDT also. That night was very difficult for me as I lost all hopes and was not able to focus on coming tasks.

I made a lot of friends and we supported each other throughout our stay.

IO:

Our tester JCO told that my interview is for the next day, so I planned to go out with my friends and I went to nearby mall. After sometime one of my friend called me and told that I have my interview today itself, IO had informed JCO to call me. Again a deep shock you get when you hear that someone very important is waiting for you and you have not prepared your mind to face them.

I immediately ran and changed to formals. My interview went for 25 good minutes and was average. I was a bit nervous in few questions because the AC was too high and I was feeling cold.

GTO

For me GTO was very fun task. I gave many ideas in PGT, HGT, and GPE and also contributed well in GD as a social science student. I was well aware of the topics which GTO asked us to discuss. I also did well in Individual Obstacles, I did 17 obstacles.

Conference

The tensest day of my life. I used to read stories about this moment. This is the point where your dreams either come to reality or remain dream.

My Chest No was 07; they asked me few questions and let me go.

It was the time ‘THE RESULTS’

I closed my eyes.  When the officers started calling numbers. I suddenly heard 07 at that time.  You don’t hear anything after they call your number. You just get lost in your dreams. I was just thinking, is it real. I cleared my medicals from there. But it was not impossible. So if i can do it, you can also do.

Prepare your mind, don’t lose hope till end and you will be there.

Jai Hind!

13 Tips for Successful Teamwork In GTO Tasks

0
SSB GTO Task

The GTO task (Group task) or technique consists of a number of different leaderless group situations (except Command Task), in which candidates have the freedom to choose their own behavioural and social roles, priorities for action and engage themselves in collective group activities. To check the performance of candidates in real environment is a difficult issue, and is practically infeasible and unviable. Group tasks are designed in such a manner that they assess the practical profile of the candidates and how well they perform in groups under pressure.

Therefore for successful completion of a task, the group must stay in cohesion and show a sense of responsibility, teamwork and cooperation. Qualities like physical and mental toughness, determination and courage, team spirit, attitude towards the group, adaptability of the situation, ability to initiate, and interest and enthusiasm in the task of the candidates are inspected by the GTO. Some groups exhibit effective teamwork and some remain dysfunctional. Effective teamwork is both radically simple and difficult at the same time.

We are suggesting you few tips that recount the conditions that must occur within the group for successful teamwork to take place. Successful teamwork is the foundation for the effective functioning of a group.

  1. The group needs to understand the goals and should be committed to attaining them. This clear direction and transparent agreement on the purpose and objective is essential for productive teamwork. Group members must agree upon an overall mission and work to achieve it. This group clarity is reinforced when the GTO (Group Testing Officer) has clear expectations for the group’s work, accountability, and outcomes.
  2. The group must create an environment in which members are comfortable taking reasonable risks in communicating with each other, advocating positions, and taking actions in the common cause. All members must trust each other and not punish or blame or act dominantly for disagreeing.
  3. Communication must be open, honest, and respectful. Teammates should feel free to express their thoughts, opinions, and potential solutions to the problems anticipated in the tasks. All members must be heard out and listened to by other team mates. They must ask questions for clarity and spend their thought time listening deeply rather than forming rebuttals while their co-mate is speaking.
  4. Team members must have a strong sense of belonging to the group. They must experience a deep commitment to the group’s decisions and actions. This sense of belonging is enhanced and strengthened when the group spends time to develop goal specific norms and guidelines together.
  5.  View group members as unique people with invaluable and unparalleled experiences, point of view, knowledge, and opinions to contribute. Above all, the purpose of forming a group is to take advantage of the differences. So, take inputs from all, the more divergent opinions and suggestions you receive as a group, the wider range of options you have to implement them to tackle the tasks.SSB GTO Task
  6. Expect and accept Creativity, innovation, and different viewpoints and encourage as much as possible. Comments such as “what a dumb idea” must not be allowed or supported by the group.
  7. Constant examination of the group itself. Scrutinize the activities, practices and actions taken in the team and the interaction of the group members. Discuss openly what is hindering the group’s ability to move forward and progress in areas of efforts, planning, and strategy.
  8. The group must agree upon the undertaking of diagnosing, analysing and resolving group problems and conflicts. As a team, you must not support member personality conflicts and clashes nor do pick sides in a disagreement. Rather, work towards the mutual resolution of problems and disagreements.
  9. Practice Participative leadership. A good leader leads by example. Hence, come forward and do the work instead of ordering something. Come in front and make the bridge, but do not fight for it with anybody, say politely that you have got an idea and would like to implement it. Assign tasks, record mutual decisions, assess progress, hold group members accountable, and provide direction to the group.
  10. Make high-quality decisions together as a team and have the support and commitment of the group to carry out the mutual decisions made.
  11. Never lose temper or shout at others, but be patient and cheerful and show a friendly and cordial approach in the group.
  12. Do not waste time in indecisiveness. Be active and do everything possible in coordination and cooperation with your teammates.
  13. Use every member of the group wisely according to their weight and height. Do not impose an idea or suggestion on any member if he/she is incapable or hesitant to do it.

If a group can get these ten factors right, it can successfully end a task with satisfaction and contentment.  It is not always the task or obstacle at hand that challenges the groups in their progress, it’s the relationships and the little things that happen at those moments.
