The confidence I had in interview was inbuilt by EDEN IAS (& DICS) MOCK INTERVIEW. The panel of the interview of EDEN IAS was very cooperative. They gave very detail review. Here (in EDEN IAS) I got review about my attire, to sitting position to the areas where I need to work upon, how critical I should be etc.
Though I had given mock interviews at various places, but EDEN IAS Mock Interview was best among the rest.
