I request all seniors ,who have appeared before the interviewing board for CSS, to please help me on this point which is constantly bugging my nerves: How much honesty should we follow while answering the interviewers?

For example:

Interviewer : Why do you want to join civil service?
Answer: Sir i want to join the service because its cool to be a civil servant and it brings social prestige and power and good salary and perks and comforts.

If this is what one feels about civil service, should one say the same honest things during interview.




Anxiously waiting for your replies.
