After the Interview: A New Path
For weeks, I was lost in a fog of disappointment. My dream had slipped through my fingers, and I didn’t know what to do next. But as time passed, I began to see that my journey wasn’t over—it was just taking a different turn.
I found an interest in technology and decided to pursue a degree in B.Tech. It wasn’t the path I’d originally envisioned, but it became a source of new passion and purpose. I discovered that technology could be a way to serve and make a difference, just like I’d hoped to do in the military.
Though my first dream didn’t come true, the journey taught me resilience, adaptability, and the courage to find new dreams. The heartbreak was real, but it led me to a future I hadn’t expected—a future filled with possibilities.
NDA -SSB Interview Experience
Hi,
From the day I was old enough to understand the meaning of duty and honour, I knew I wanted to wear the uniform of my nation. I wasn’t just chasing a career—I was chasing a calling. The idea of becoming an officer in the Indian Armed Forces was etched into my heart as if it had always been my destiny. I grew up listening to stories of valour, watching parades on Republic Day, and dreaming of one day standing among those brave men and women.
But dreams don’t come true just because we want them to. They require hard work, sacrifice, and resilience. I had the drive, the passion, and the discipline, but sometimes, even that wasn’t enough. This is the story of how I gave everything I had for my dream, only to see it slip away—and what I found on the other side of that heartache.
Here’s a narrative that captures the emotions, challenges, and transformation you experienced during my five-day SSB interview process for NDA, along with your journey afterwards
