The clarity, articulation, and confidence exhibited during responses can create a positive impression on interviewers. Good communication skills allow candidates to express their thoughts coherently, demonstrating their understanding of diverse topics. Engaging actively with the interview panel through thoughtful questions reflects critical thinking and engagement. Furthermore, practicing mock interviews improves verbal fluency and helps candidates articulate their unique perspectives. This preparation not only builds confidence but plays a crucial role in effectively conveying their motivations and suitability for a career in civil services.
