to me

Hi Sir,

My name is Athira Mohan Kurup, i had given ur mock interview i think on 16th.

Sir i was having my interview on 1st November morning slot at Nagpur divisional office. I had to face a 3 member panel(no female member). I think sir my interview lasted for 15-20mins. As i was the last candidate(but not the last of my batch) before their lunch break so they were in a bit hurry. They didnt even allow me to settle down n before that they asked my name n dat am i doing my mcom, from which college,whether I am a regular student... N where i am basically from.... N all. Then the sir asked me the subjects i am having in my mcom semester 3... As soon as i told them the subjects they asked me what income tax is, n to tell deductions applicable u/s 80C n what is NPS n how much deduction is allowed (this i wasn't knowing... N the sir explained me the same ). Then they asked me about my family n as my mom is a lic agent they asked me about her like which branch who is her development officer n are we still in touch with him n how many yrs has she been working n all. They asked me whether we were having some relative in lic it was bcoz of same surname( i answered no)Then they asked me the mission of lic, why lic n role of ADO. Full form of irdai, it mission,which year it was formed n what happened in 1999 that led to its establishment. Then they asked me that suppose i am posted somewhere other than Nagpur how am i going to recruit agents n that am i and my family comfortable with the idea of being posted somewhere else. Then they asked me to tell about any lic plan in brief. Then the sir asked whether I was having mercantile law as subject, i said no and in return answered that i was having company law. Then another sir asked whether I watch movies( i said yes) then he asked if i had watched Super 30( n my answer was no, so asked me the reason y n said it's a good movie). Then they asked wat is my mom's commission to which i answered that i dont know, they asked me why, it's a basic Q, i said that sir don't feel it's correct to ask her about that. 

As it was my first interview was a bit nervous as i entered but then i answered them confidently. It was a great experience n i do hope for the best.

Some Qs they asked like deferred period but before me answering the other sir would ask something just related to that

I don't know sir how it went n all. 

Thanks a lot Sir, for helping us n giving us an opportunity to give mock interview and reduce our fear. It was a great help 

Thanks a lot Sir  .

I'm sharing the whole interview process that went by. 

My interview was on the 1st of November 2019, 10am.  The process started with getting all our photocopies verified and stamped. Then we are asked to go for the biometrics. After the biometrics is done, we are asked by the officials there to wait in the waiting lounge for our turn. Mine was 4th on the list.

At around 12:25 pm, my turn came, and it went for 15–20 minutes. 

Me to the panel of 4: May I come in Ma'am? (with a smile, and as my eyes met with the lady at first)

Lady: Yes please be seated (with smile)

I wished them with pleasantries. They asked me to be very comfortable.

Chairman: So what's your full name?

Me: *told*

Cm: who all are there in your family?

Me:*told, also added my brother's working in an IT company.*

Cm: so you are applying for the job of an ADO. Do you know what his role is ?

Me: yes sir, definitely. The Apprentice development officer is an important part of the insurance organisation. His primary role is to recruit a team of insurance agents who , in turn, would approach potential customers, build good relationship with them and bring business to the organisation. So the ado is mainly assigned with the job of recruiting such agents, train them by imparting skills and follow up with their progress.

Cm: ok good but what is the one term that can define all the qualities that you defined, who does all the motivation and imparting skills to the agents?

Me: Leadership?

Cm: yes that's correct.

Official 1: can you tell me how are the LIC agents recruited?

Me: Sir, there is an exam conducted by the IRDAI which the prospective agents have to sit for, qualify them and then there's a 17 day training period that they have to undergo, through which they will be trained with proper skills.

Of1: ok, so how will you ensure that the agents are meeting their targets?

Me: Sir i feel the first step in order to assign them the job is to identify their strengths and skills. For example if I assign one agent into an Metropolitan areas, I'll ensure that he's got good communication skills through which he can form good relationship with prospective customers and then sell them the products which suit their needs and aspirations. Again, if he's assigned in a remote area, where the average income per household is low to moderate, I'll assign him to sell micro insurance products like Bhagyalaksmi or micro bachat which would be suitable for that region.

Lady(seemingly impressed) : oh you have gone through our website as well?

Me: yes ma'am I did a bit of homework. :)

Official 2: How will you motivate the agents?

Me: Sir firstly after recruiting the agents I'll first build a good relationship with them because a good marketing job always starts with a good relationship. Then I'll follow up with their progress and conduct periodic sessions to motivate them. Also I'll ensure that the agents who do good work are rewarded with suitable incentives. And lastly I'll also see if any agent is going through a practical problem, I'll try to solve them.

Cm: You have mentioned in your CV that you left your previous job because you were planning for government jobs. But do you know that this job is not exactly a government job in fact it's a business oriented job , precisely a marketing job. So what do you have to say about it?

Me: yes sir, I'm aware it's not a government job but I feel there is a bit of foot work we have to do in every work that we start and in this case perhaps more. But i feel I have got the right skills for this particular job, as this requires building good relationships with prospective clients even before doing business with them and I feel, though I'm not aware what others feel about me, that I have moderately good communication skills though i’m a bit nervous now( here the lady interrupted me, seemingly impressed, seconding the fact that I have good communication skills) and I can do justice to my job.

Official 4: Here you won't get a desk also, maybe you ll have to be on the run 24X7?

Me: Sir, even though if I get a government job, we get excited at first but then it gets monotonous after sometime, with all the file work etc. So field work would be very challenging and I like taking my work as a challenge, something that would keep me on my toes.

Cm: ok that's good to know. So do you know how to drive a scooty? Since you may have to travel under the sun or go to remote places for business?

Me: Sir I'm planning to learn driving, after I get settled with the job. Travelling is not a big issue for me as I have stayed in places where I have had to face many challenges :)

Lady: do you like shopping? Online or offline?

Me: yes it's so easy on the pocket as well. Plus we don't have to bother about trials and returns.

Lady: do you know about online insurance?

Me: *I didn't have any idea about it , so I told her about online agents, she didn't mind, probably because she was already quite impressed with me*

Official 3: *asked me something related to some internal operations about the company, where the cm,cut him short telling that I may not know about it since it's not for me to know*

Lastly..

Cm: have you seen any ads related to LIC on TV?

Me: yes sir, I have seen, but I don't remember the exact ads now.

Cm: do you know the tagline of LIC?

Me: It's Yogakshemam vahamyaham, meaning your welfare is our responsibility. It's taken from the 9th chapter of Bhagwad Gita, 22nd verse.

Off 3: okay tell me the punchline of the ad!

Me: it's Zindagi KE sath bhi , Zindagi KE bad bhi..

All: yes very good :)

All of them smiled and wished me good luck for the results, asked me to take a chocolate. I wished them back and left with a smile. I was quite satisfied with the way my interview went, as I couldn't prepare well for the same.
