Public speaking proficiency is highly significant in the UPSC interview process, known as the Personality Test. Candidates must articulate their thoughts clearly, effectively communicate their viewpoints, and demonstrate confidence. The interview assesses not only subject knowledge but also soft skills including body language, clarity of expression, and persuasive abilities. Strong public speaking can positively influence the panel's perception, showcasing a candidate's ability to engage in public discourse—a vital skill for future civil servants. Preparation for interviews should include practicing mock interviews to build confidence and refine communication skills.
