IELTS SPEAKING FULL INTERVIEW
PART – 1 INTRO PART
What is your full name?
My name is Kritika Rani.
How may I address you?
You may address me as Kritika.
May I see your Identification?
Sure, here it is.
Do you like to watch the sky?
Yes, I have to say I am a fan of watching the sky. To me, the sky is a magnificent work of art, and I appreciate the aesthetic qualities of it. The colour of the clouds are so beautiful.
What is the sky like at night in your hometown?
The night sky where I live is simply a breathtaking view. As I live in the countryside, the sky is not affected by light pollution, so there are numerous shining stars in a broad blackish background. Therefore, the view is perfect for anyone who has a thirst for freedom.
Do you like to watch stars?
I find star-watching extremely interesting. I believe that every star in the cosmos has its function and holds a unique mystery to be discovered. This is a great inspiration to me.
Have you ever taken a course about stars?
I haven’t ever enrolled in such courses, but I would love to in the future. I have always wanted to know how constellations retain their shape in zero gravity without floating through space.
What’s your favourite star?
The Sun is my favourite star, I would say. This is because of its power and importance to life. If we could find a star similar to the Sun out there in space, we would be able to discover alien life forms and complete our quest for a new homeland.

SAMPLE ANSWER
After completing my Bachelors in India, I moved to the US to pursue my Masters in Computer Science. The scholarship I got was meagre and was just enough for the college fee. I got to know from my professor that there was a vacancy in a medical laboratory nearby. So I took up a job as a medical lab assistant to supplement my expenses. I worked in the evenings. I opted for it because I had no choice. The job involved analysis of samples of body tissue taken from patients, like blood. The key ability required was good eyesight because you have to work on fine samples. I wore spectacles, and as my power increased, I wore thick lenses.
I had to strain myself to do the job. It was very taxing. As I worked on the samples, I was always at the fear of giving a wrong analysis. I never trusted my findings and re-checked them over and over again. This way, I was very slow. I took more time to complete one analysis. It was not a highly paid job, but it did require some skills. Though my analysis was correct most of the time, I did fewer samples in a day than what was expected.
I was being supervised by a Chinese lady. She always complained that I was not upto the mark. I tried to explain my situation, but she would not listen to it. After a hard day at the university, this job made my life more strenuous. It was a tough and testing time of my life. I was determined not to quit on my own. Somehow, I managed to finish the two years of my Masters. But I would never take up the job of a medical lab assistant.
PART – 3 FOLLOW UPS
Which do young people generally prefer – boring jobs with higher pay or interesting jobs with lower pay?
I think it is tough to generalize. It varies from person to person. There are people who work for money and also people who work for passion. If their goal is money-making, they will be able to bear with a tedious job. If they work for passion, then money does not matter.
Which do you prefer, physical work or work involving thinking?
I prefer to think and work rather than doing something which requires manual effort. It is not that I disrespect physical work, but it is just that I won’t be the right fit for it. Nowadays, there are hardly any jobs that require physical labour. Everything is automated.
How do young people today decide their career?
I think the younger generation today makes brilliant career choices. They are more mature. There is a lot of material available on the internet. Social media like Facebook and YouTube assist them in their research. So, they don’t have to look up to their elders for suggestions. There are also many career advices given in schools and colleges, which helps them decide on the right career path.
