Sathish Kumar Territorial Army

Inspiring Story Of 39 Year Old Software Engineer Sathish Kumar Who Joined Territorial Army

After 30 years, every man in the world has drawn this line that now one should set up, make a family, marriage-children, what are the dreams, they happen in youth.

If you think like this and leave your dreams behind and move forward, then you are not moving forward. you are too far behind

Sathish Kumar shared his story on LinkedIn. He has joined the Territorial Army unit of the Indian Army that too at the age of 39.

He has shared the complete process of his selection, so people can take motivation. He told that he was among those 2079 candidates who got selected out of 1.5 lakh students who had appeared for the written exam. When he reached Pune for the interview, he looked at the other candidates.

All the candidates sitting there were less than 30 years of age and he himself was 37 years of age at that time. He at first presumed that the only reason behind his “possible rejection” would have been his age.

How Sathish Kumar Got Selected For Territorial Army : Know Step By Step


Written Exam:
Spread over two papers of two hours each, the exam tests competency in Mathematics, General Knowledge, Logical Reasoning and English.

Interview: The interview panel, headed by an officer of the rank of Major General and two officers of Lt Col rank along with a psychologist, assessed every application over a few standard questions .

Services Selection Board (SSB):

Post-interview, the count was filtered down from 2079 to 816 which was further split into batches of 200. Each batch was allocated a different reporting date for SSB. 172 candidates reported on day-1 at 21-SSB Bhopal.

Six long hours and one screening test later, that number was pruned to 16. Over the next four days, assessors evaluated all of us on leadership, teamwork and rational thinking based on various tests of situation reaction, group obstacles and personal interviews. SSB is a lifetime experience, in that a lifetime of learning is put to test over five grueling days and only very few get recommended.

Setback:

Four out of sixteen were recommended at the end of the conference on the fifth day of SSB. The army doctors have stringent guidelines for evaluating the candidates and all four of us were rejected for a host of reasons. We were also given an opportunity to appeal the rejection at military hospitals of our choice. I chose the command hospital in Bangalore and cleared the medical in September 2020.

Documentation:

Next up was the documentation – gazetted officer verification, police verification, State Intelligence Department verification. In hope that all the documentation would complete in 4-6 weeks, I was looking forward to be commissioned as an officer by Dec-2020.

Success finally:

I finally received the commissioning letter in April 2021. I was assigned to 118 Infantry (TA) battalion of the Grenadiers Regiment.

Sathish Kumar ‘s Territorial Army selection story is a big source of inspiration for all those aspirants who are at his age but have a spark of desire to join the Indian Armed Forces and serve the nation. Territorial Army is the golden opportunity for such defence aspirants. We salute the determination and dedication of Sathish Kumar. Jai Hind !
