After clearing the written exam, you get to pick your SSB interview dates. It's a whole 6-day rigorous process. Day 1 is screening where they filter candidates based on certain tasks. Then, the selected candidates move forward for the rest of the selection process, which includes a lot of tasks like psychology tests, group tasks, personal interviews, and a few others. The results are announced on the last day.

Technical Behavioral

The process starts with a common admission test. Candidates who pass this will then be invited for a SSB interview, which spans five days and includes various rounds. My advice to those participating is to be yourself and showcase your personality. They're looking for specific skills, so if you don't naturally possess them, it's okay. Having these skills doesn't necessarily make you better, and not having them doesn't make you unintelligent.
