How to justify a GAP in IBPS Interview?

How to justify a GAP in IBPS Interview?
Many candidates are worried about the gap in their education or the GAP in their work
experience. As per our experience, if you have a substantial GAP in your education
qualification or work experience, then this might be one of the probable question which
can be asked to you during your interview.

Our Affiliates

In some case, there are genuine reasons for a

GAP like - Marriage (in case of married
ladies), accident or some family problem or
any other similar problem. In such cases, it is
better to tell interviewers about actual
reason.

But in most of the cases, a GAP is created as
candidates in a dedicated manner prepare for
competitive exams and many a times, they
join a Coaching Institute for Preparation by
leaving there jobs.

In
such

cases, We feel, the best way to answer this

question is - to be honest and tell them frankly
that you were preparing for IBPS or bank jobs
(if you do not have any other genuine reason
for GAP). As soon as you say this, their next
question generally is - did you join a coaching
institute for this. We suggest that you should
never say in the interview that you joined a
coaching for preparation, as generally
interviewers perceive this negatively.

W hic h quality is most

important for suc c ess in life?

Positive Attitude
Hard Work
Networking
Team M anagement
You may select multiple
answers.

Rather,you should say that I prepared myself.

If you belong to a poor background, you can
also tell them that you can not afford a
coaching that is why you are preparing on your own.

Vote

They might also ask you - which books did you refer for your preparation? So, be ready
with the list of books.
So, go prepared with a story justifying your GAP. Do not feel bad about this GAP, as
most of the candidates have a GAP between jobs or educational qualifications. At the
same time, do not be clueless if someone asks you about the same.
In the same sequence, they might ask you - why you do you want to join a Bank or why
a government job? We will answer these two queries in our next post.
