Q3. Why do you want to join civil service? Why don’t you continue in your graduation field?
Social service can be done from private sector too.

answer in the transcript in the next question.

and economics. So I decided to pursue economics.
Me- Yes sir, I had science. But my combination was physics, chemistry, maths and economics.
Ch- Oh I didn’t see that. Tell me, you are young, only 22. Why did you decide to go for the exam, why
not something else?

do.
