Dear friends,

I like to add my experiences about my first interview for Indian Indian Air Force at mysore held from 12 th of April 2008. I am very honored to write this post from my interview place. When I reached mysore railway station on 11th april around 10 O’ clock in the night I was very eager to know what will be going on the very first day. I was supposed to report at the Prepaid Autobooth which is in the railway station of mysore on next morning.

So, I took a bed in the retiring room in the railway station. As it was the first time when I am staying in a place where I do not know anyone I was little eager to know how I am going to manage. Then when I entered to the retiring room I could find some of the persons who have been already there for the same purpose which I had came for. And also, I found the retiring room was very neat. The bath rooms were are also clean. That’s were I got the first confidence. Then I slept and was ready at the prepaid auto booth at 6:45 Am. Exactly at 7 O’ clock the uniformed persons from IAF came to receive us and they boarded our luggages in the trucks and we got boarded in the van after verification of our call up letters. There were around 32 persons who got boarded in the van.

We reached the IAF station at 7:30 Am. We were verified for our identification and taken into a big conference hall. There we were welcomed by the Psychologist with warm wishes. Then our doubts were clarified regarding the filling up of Personnel Information Questions and the percentage of marks. They are received with our journey tickets for TA. So, many of us are little hungry and little tired since some of them had overnight travel. We were given Tea and Bread which quenched our hunger.

Then some of the persons were called in to have Phase one tests where, others who have completed their Phase one were waiting outside the hall. Then we had our tests and the results of phase one have been announced. I am also one of the person who got selected. It was one of stepping stone in my life and the first stepping stone in the SSB.

It was 2 O’ clock. We got our luggages and kept near our rooms. We were taken for lunch at the Dining Hall. There we had a lunch with a fruit and Dall with rice. It was wonderful environment to have lunch in such a place. There I founded spoon and I had no idea to use that.

Now, we are given rooms for our accommodation for the next four days for further tests and interviews. In our hall there were around 10 beds and nine candidates are given accommodation. In the room we were provided with all facilities like bed with bed sheets, pillows with cover even, we are asked to bring light bedding. We had lockers and stands to dry our clothes. We are given addition table fans, mosquito destroyers which I am not aware or imagined which I will have such a facility. We were given instructions about our facilities and our expected behaviors and our time schedules. In the evening we had another psychological test. The day 1 ended smoothly.

The day 2, We had tea at 5:30 in the early morning and got ready at 7 O’ clock as we are instructed to do so. I was supposed to have the personnel interview at 10:30 in the morning. I dressed up and got ready, I had interview in a charming manner. The interview panned made to feel comfortable for making me to perform better in which the software companies or others do not follow. I was questioned about my interests, hobbies, opinion of my parents, friends, neighbors, and class mates about me. It lasted up to one hour. I enjoyed very much..

Finally i got conference out.. sad but need to accept it…
