Services Selection Board

Services Selection Board (SSB) is an organization that conducts interviews for defence aspirants who want to serve in the Indian Armed Forces. This interview consists of an intensive five-day evaluation process. The board evaluates the suitability of the candidate for becoming an officer using a standardized protocol of evaluation system, which consists of intelligence tests and personality interviews. The tests consist of oral, practical, and written tasks. An SSB is a panel of assessors, who are officers in the Indian Armed Forces, as Psychologists, Group Testing Officers (G.T.O), and Interviewing Officers. The psychologists may or may not be directly coming from the armed forces. Presently, there are fourteen Service Selection Board centres across India, out of which four boards are for the Indian Army, five boards are for the Indian Navy, and five boards are for the Indian Air Force.
