    1. This is a good experience for your ensuing civils interview. When certain query is asked try to give a detailed reply. Giving one word or very small answer will make us to face more number of queries. While giving reply, we have to take them to area or topic where we are comfortable. Generally queries are asked from our background- name, area, educational qualifications and subjects etc, our hobbies etc. You have nicely answered. I rate you around 5.5 in the scale of 10. The reasons for the score is
      1. You answered the reasonably well
      2. Appears from your posting that there was no bluffing which you didn't know. Nothing wrong in saying, I dont know sir
      3. For the query on difference btn LS and RS, you could have better answered. The answer would have been----
      LS is a popular chamber where the members are directly elected by the people where as RS is a federal chamber, elected indirectly by the elected representatives of the states by single transferable vote. The council of Ministers are accountable to the LS where as no such issue there for RS. By its numerical superiority, the will of the LS generally prevails any matter of dispute between the two and the money bills are introduced in LS only. And generally the PM comes from LS though there is no bar that a member of RS cannot become PM and so on.

      We have to say the most important differences first and then go to less imp issues.

    2. This is general guidance on inteviews
      1. Present yourself nicely. Wear comfortable clothing and avoid dark colours
      2. Try to stay pleasant throughout the interview and be attentive. Dont lean too much back to the chair and so also front
      3. Hand movement required to be very moderate or rest on the sides of the chair
      4. While answering to some member, if some other intervenes and ask something, take leave from the previous member to whom you were answering and then turn to the other member.
      5. While answering keep looking at all the members though the main focus would be on the member who asked the query. Maintain eye to eye contact in a nice way.
      6. As I have told, try to give little big answers but only relevant material. Single world answers may be avoided.
      7. If you dont know the answer, say politely that you wont know the answer. Some expressions would be---- Sorry sir, I am not able to recollect now. Sorry sir, I dont know etc.
      8. Never use words or topics which you are not aware of, as members generate questions from your answers though they may have their set of own questions.
      9. Be audible and clear in language. It means clarity in speaking.
      As we have discussed keep preparing for interview from day one. Best of luck and God bless you.
