I was the last candidate, they seemed exhausted. I tried to give wholesome answers in the question. 25-30 mins interview.<\/p>\n<p>They seemed to be genuinely interested in what you are saying. Try to keep them engaged throughout.<\/p>\n<p>Utility of mocks (if any)- gave 8 mocks. 5 without any preparation ( just went on with suit boot and blabbed)<\/p>\n<p>Later 3 were proper mocks- online though.<\/p>\n<p>Ravindran sir- is the most accurate guy in this coaching industry regarding interview. Gave one on One there- he told me to not change my personality any bit.<\/p>\n<p>Khan Sir one on One- again very important for confidence and feel good purpose.<\/p>\n<p>Some good mocks<\/p>\n<p>KSG( did some intentional mistakes to get the feel)<\/p>\n<p>Vajirao( good)<\/p>\n<p>( one of the best- they told me to smile.

They told me to be more humble and less flamboyant)- really helpful mock.<\/p>\n<p>Last but not the least-<\/p>\n<p>One on one with Kaptaan Bhaiya is helpful ( 2-3 days before actual interview). I would recommend everyone to just have a casual chat with him.<\/p>\n<p>Baaki mocks ko dil pe mat lena. Practice ke liye dedo. Ki manners aa jaayein. Isse zyada koi utility nahi hai<\/p>\n<p>Anant sir DAF ke bahar nahi jaate and he is very disinterested person.<\/p>\n<p>Vo sawal bhi nahi puchte zyada.<\/p>\n<p>Members hi puchte hain.<\/p>\n<p>Also speak your heart out as to what you feel rather than having a cooked up answer for everything.<\/p>\n<p>If you try to give up mains type answer, you may end up in negative end.<\/p>\n<p>Keep calm and try to read 2-3 newspapers on the day of interview. Real interview is quite different. It&#8217;s more of a dialogue and conversation<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<div>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>To view all IAS Interview Transcripts,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/forumias.com\/blog\/interview-transcript\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">visit this page<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>For full Interview Preparation Guide:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/forumias.com\/blog\/interview\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Click Here<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Current Affairs For UPSC Exam 2022:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/forumias.com\/blog\/current-affairs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click Here<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<div><strong>(This transcript has been posted by a community member of ForumIAS)<\/strong><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Date of Interview: 19\/4\/22 Board: TCA Anant Optional: anthropology Background: Ek IIT hai To view all IAS Interview Transcripts 2021,\u00a0visit this page Chairman Indian stereotypes at US comedy shows Some more questions on it.
