Whenever we talk about SSB interviews, personal interviews are a very crucial part of the five-day process. The pattern of a personal interview varies from person to person and depends on their PIQ. But if we do some analysis, then there is a certain set of common questions for all candidates. It is always considered good practice to prepare these questions in advance to be more expressive and presentable during the real-time interview. After researching and analyzing, I have come across a certain set of common questions in all boards. There is a very high probability that these questions would be put forward in front of the candidate. Below are some of the questions which are frequently asked during the interview.
