I felt the questions were really good, especially the ones related to infra and civil engineering. I wasn't able to satisfy the demands with respect to practical issues, a point that was raised twice during the interview. Not unnecessary grilling if a person could answer these questions he/she would definitely make a really good addition to services.

Mocks- focussed majorly on daf, and I felt the interview was of a whole another level- they knew what they knew what they were looking for.

^^^My Experience and observations^^^: Surprised as NO question asked on Hobbies, Home state, IPS as first choice ...
Overall board was cordial and chairman tried to make the atmosphere peaceful initially.
My observation is that the DAF was not read properly (or at all) because as soon as the previous candidate left I was called in (within seconds) ... asked about where i work.. and questions started from there and revolved around job and then basic optional knowledge(sociology)

Main observation: "A lot of Supplementary Questions were asked based on the answers i gave"
