Candidate Evaluation: Fill & Download for Free

Unfortunately dear questioner, you can not get the answer you expect from the SSB under RTI, simply because of the fact that all the information stored by the SSB(including candidates evaluation results and personal details) are meant to be confidential and are a property of the defense forces. And we can not seek information stored on confidential data from any of the security forces in India under the RTI or any other means.

Because you, the applicant, are never supposed to see the letters.Admissions committees want to see candid evaluations of applicants. Many letter writers would naturally feel uncomfortable offering any critical comments, no matter how inconsequential, if they knew that the applicant would read them.Also, some recommendation letters offer useful direct comparisons with other past applicants. (“I would rate XXX’s potential for success is stronger than YYY, who is already in your PhD program, but perhaps slightly weaker than ZZZ, who finished his PhD at Stanford last year.”) But these comparative evaluations are confidential; the writer’s opinion of those other people is none of your business.Finally, as Tony’s answer suggests, because there is intense competition for graduate school admissions, and some people try to cheat the system. Allowing you to upload the letters yourself gives you a golden opportunity to cheat the system, by altering the letters before scanning, or by forging the supposed recommender’s signature on a letter you’ve written yourself. Some applicants would take advantage of that opportunity, and a few of them would even succeed, robbing more qualified and more honest applicants.

Almost any company that you would want to apply to will first evaluate you on your data structures and algorithms knowledge. They are like bread and butter of Computer Science and you should be absolutely comfortable with common data structures and associated algorithms.You should understand that even if you are a machine learning pro, you might be rejected based on that one technical interview that was all based on data structures and algorithms and so, it is a good idea to learn them.There is a lot of debate about what’s the best way to evaluate a candidate for a position (intern/full time), but so far, the most accepted way is to first evaluate the candidate’s problem solving abilities by throwing a couple of data structures and algorithms problems and seeing how candidate performs. Only then is the candidate evaluated for the specific role for which she/he is applying (in your case, machine learning engineer intern).Good luck and Happy learning :)
