Today I attended my first Merchant Navy interview , and honestly, it didn't go the way I expected.

I had only around 3 days to prepare for the interview, so I knew I wasn't fully prepared. The interviewer asked me some basic questions about Ohm's Law, my hobbies, and the TSA (Total Surface Area) of a cylinder.

I couldn't answer the cylinder question properly. The interviewer even tried to help me visualize it by explaining it as two circles and a rectangle, but I still fumbled and couldn't explain it correctly.

After that, he asked a few questions about my parents and then ended the interview.

I'm feeling quite disappointed because I genuinely wanted to clear this interview. This was my first-ever interview experience, and I don't know how much my performance will affect my selection.
