During the UPSC Interview stage, several aspects are evaluated, including communication skills, personality traits, and overall suitability for civil services. Interviewers assess a candidate's knowledge of current affairs, grasp of socio-economic issues, and depth of understanding of various subjects. The evaluation also focuses on critical thinking, decision-making abilities, and ethical judgment. Candidates’ interpersonal skills, confidence, and attitude towards challenges are under scrutiny as well. Personal experiences and motivation for joining civil services are also integral to the assessment, helping interviewers gauge a candidate's fit for administrative responsibilities.
