For aspirants preparing for the RBI DEPR Interview, Indian Economic Service (IES) Interview, or any other economics-based recruitment interview, previous years’ interview transcripts are truly invaluable. They provide rare, real-world insights into the types of questions asked, the thought process behind successful answers, and the overall interview experience. Unfortunately, such transcripts are still in short-supply, for various reasons.. That’s why we encourage selected candidates to share their interview transcripts – your experience could guide and inspire aspirants even a decade from now. And years later, you might enjoy revisiting your own transcript as a treasured memory of your journey.
