  • Services Selection Board
    Services Selection Board This article needs additional citations for verification. Learn more Services Selection Board (SSB) is an organization that assesses the candidates for becoming officers into the Indian Armed Forces. The board evaluates the suitability of the candidate for becoming an officer using a standardized protocol of evaluation system which constitutes personality, intelligence tests, and interviews. The tests are of both types i.e. written and practical task-based. An SSB comprises the panel of assessors, who are officers in the Indian Armed Forces and having their specialization as Psychologist, GTO (Group Task Officer), and Interviewing Officer. In total there are thirteen Service Selection Boards across India, out of which four boards are for the Indian Army, four boards are for Indian Air Force, and five boards for the Indian Navy. SSB is a 5 days evaluation process. Candidates in a group task Introduction There are a variety of pathways to a commission as an officer in Indian Armed Forces. This applies to both for civilians (after 10+2, graduation and post- graduation), as well as for serving armed forces personnel. All except army medical corps members must succeed in the "SSB interview". There is no limit to the number of attempts that can be made. The interview involves a battery of psychological tests of personality, to assess the candidate's suitability for getting inducted into the armed forces. The tests help the SSB select candidates with officer like qualities ("OLQs"). The Services Selection Board is not concerned with the number of commissions available. Its responsibility is just to assess and then, recommend.

  • PERSONNEL SELECTION* by Dr. Sohan Lall, Chief Psychologist, Ministry of Defence Historical from the Earliest Times Somd Kind Of
    PERSONNEL SELECTION* By Dr. Sohan Lall, Chief Psychologist, Ministry of Defence Historical From the earliest times somd kind of a test has always been used for selecting incumbents of certain posts. The oldest method of selection, known to us, was an examination in school or college sub- jects. When the number of candidates for any post was small the method employed was the viva voce examination. In this situation, the examiner combined the functions of testing the knowledge of the candidate in certain academic subjects and of assessing the traits of personality displayed by the individual during the examination. As the humber of candidates increased the viva voce examination was found time-consuming and inadequate. Public examinations were, consequently, organised. Written question papers were distributed and the candidates were required to write answers in note-books. The answer-books were subsequently scrutinized by the examiner. The testing of the standa.rd of achievement attained by a candidate in particular subject was thus accomplished, but the personal contact between the examiner and the examinee was lo&. The assessment of personality traits, which was one of the objects of the viva voce examination, could not be -achieved. To overcome this difficulty an interview with each candidate was considered necessary and the selection procedure came to have two steps in it; namely a written examination and an interview. This method has been in use for a long time now. A careful examination of this system of selection reveals that the written examination aims at measuring a candidate's abilities developed by the exercise of cognitive powers.

  • The Eagle – April 2010 Part 1 Golden Jubilee
    The Eagle (A NEWSLETTER OF ONA) ISSUE NO. 27 (For Private Circulation) April, 2010 (The Golden Jubilee (1960-2010) Issue) Fifty years ago in the small town of Nabha, in Punjab, a school was born. It was called “THE SAINIK SCHOOL”. After creating a movement to start Sainik Schools all over India, this school was rechristened “THE PUNJAB PUBLIC SCHOOL, NABHA”, to make it unique by proudly adding the name of the state in which it was born and maintaining its distinct nature. Soon it became a school to be talked about in the country.This did not happen over night. There were visionaries who dared to dream and create this School by a unique collaboration between the “Punjab Govt” and the “Post War Services Reconstruction Fund” (PWSR Fund) for the welfare of the state and to provide future human resource for India and Punjab. These visionaries were giants in their respective areas. Lead by Sardar Pratap Singh Kairon whom Nehru called the best administrator in the country, they included Lt Gen Kalwant Singh “The saviour of Kashmir”and Sardar Naunihal Singh Mann, MBE, who motivated Kairon and agreed on his bidding to see their baby through with inputs from likes of Gen PN Thapar. They were the Foundations of PPS. Having given birth, the next steps were to get the baby to crawl, toddle, and stand till it attained adulthood and maturity. For this they had selected a dynamic man called Mr. JK Kate. It was he and his team of able assistants who not only brought it to maturity but made it an individual to be admired and talked about.
