    Hey Abhijeet. I don't wanna sound rude but please let your guest complete his/her point before posing another question in between. Because if it happens more than two times in a question it looks more like interrogation than an interview

    This was one of the best interviews I've seen of an in-service officer, especially one focusing on the finer details of foreign services which sadly there isn't much awareness about. Thank you so much for bringing one of the most intellectually stimulating and humble officers on air. It was truly remarkable to know all about what happens after clearing this prestigious exam.

    Hello Abhijeet sir, thanks a lot for having this interactive session with an ifs officer. UA-cam is filled with talks with ias officers, their service experience, one day with the sdm or what not but hardly there is anything or any video to give insight into the life of an ifs officer or what's there after lbsnaa or journey from ssfsi to choosing and learning a new language in a new country, settling there and all. This was a much needed one.
    Hopefully you'll bring more such videos in future for ifs aspirants, I'd like to recommend taking a session with two ifs officers-
    1. Nayantara Dabariya(earlier posted in South Korea, currently in India)
    2. Kanishka Singh( posted in Moscow, Russia)
    It'd be great and really help us get an insight into the life as an ifs officer specially female ones if you could talk with them

  • @sohamroy6156
    @sohamroy6156 2 роки тому +37

    Great to see a good recruit who chose the IFS over IAS and has a background in history. In the 21st century, it is incredible that the same exam is used to select police officers, tax collectors, railway administrators, corporate law service, defence people, postal officers and diplomats. It is just absurd. All of these services are very very different and the lateral entry thing should be welcomed as most aspirants only want the IAS and have ZERO interest in the other services.What is even more astonishing is that people who get most of the other services barring the IAS make repeated attempts to get out of the service. This is the reason why our bureaucracy is rated one of the worst in the world .The Brits did away with this absurdity 60 years back. Our diplomats used to be the best in the world like Shiv Shankar Menon, Nirupama Rao and Shyam Saran but the current IFS recruits are such a shame. Most of them have no interest in history and politics and have extremely extremely poor communication skills. People like Ambassador Ronen Sen, Shashi Tharoor and Fareed Zakaria have raised this issue multiple times, We need a complete transformation and scrap the present system which is way past its sell by date

    • @zeroand0
      @zeroand0 2 роки тому +11

      @Soham Roy...IFS dont require knowledge of history, IR , geo-politics in its advance form. All the toppers read the same which is required , not more or less. Neither sir Menon or Nirupama maam had expertise in history. They are stallwarts because of their constantly growing and developing interest in diplomacy and many other diplomats do. Many diplomats who never had interest in ifs or diplomacy ended up to be very good officers.

    Great Interview Abhijeet, just a recommendation being an interviewer please let the guest complete the chain of thought, since people want to hear them eagerly. the points that you want to ask on you can either write them or retain if the interview is taped, but the first rule to never interrupt the speaker, all our thoughts comments as an interviewee come second.
    Hope it helps, cheers
