anyone in lhr given interview of Preventive...?

what they asked ..
share plz

They asked 27 to 30 questions. I could not answer 5_6 it was a general interview. Except me every candidate left happily and everyone was feeling as an Inspector by saying that interview is general.
N is best you are nice person and i indorse your stance regarding sharing exact questions.

I wish i could share but i cannot as it will be injustice to those candidates who have been interviewd including me.
All members have idea what is being asked and so prepare well. The theme of interview is exaclty the same which every candidate knows. One member had some speaking problem i asked very first question three times as his voice was like Stephen Hawkin. but later on i adjusted with it and he gave me very tough time.

Yes i also endorse N is best stance...

i don't asking what exactly they asking...

but atleast one can share things like , panel asking 30 questions or 10 questions, & personal or general...
how much one able to answer...!!
similarly facing tone problems etc etc like things ...

Be optimistic man.. I hope you will make it.
