The UPSC interview process, known as the personality test, assesses candidates based on various attributes like communication skills, confidence, and psychological depth. Interviewers look for qualities that determine a candidate’s suitability for a career in the civil services. The panel typically comprises experienced members who ask questions related to candidates' backgrounds, current affairs, and ethical scenarios. This comprehensive evaluation helps in selecting individuals who not only excel academically but also possess the necessary interpersonal skills and values.
