Today group discussions and personal interviews have become synonymous with recruitment for every corporation. Group discussions are a simple yet a very efficacious way to determine a candidate’s knowledge on a topic at the same time to gauge his interpersonal skills.

The way a candidate performs in a group and how he responds to various situations which may arise out of group dynamics is a very important tool that companies use when they come for placements. Usually these group discussions are followed by a round of personal interview where candidates are evaluated on a plethora of parameters: Knowledge of their subject (Engineering), current affairs and sometimes even their reactions to hypothetical situations.

We at SMART training resources have a special program to develop these skills amongst the candidates sitting for placement in various companies.

• We have a dedicated staff of expert facilitators who conduct customized training sessions for engineering graduates planning to sit for their final year placements.

• This program apart from providing soft skills (communication skills, basics on body language and behaviour) also provides awareness about important issues that are affecting the world and which are very important from the scope of recruitment. These include science and technology, global Economy, world politics etc.

• Personal interview preparation requires a more thorough and detailed approach where candidates are made familiar with the nuances of body language, facial expressions and most importantly how these can be utilized for optimum results.

• Personal interviews are a great avenue to sell oneself to the panel. It’s an important tool which a candidate can use to his or her advantage by focussing on one’s strengths and short selling one’s weaknesses.

To have a practical assessment of these knowledge sessions, we also conduct mock GD and PI’s to give candidates a realistic idea of what they will eventually face and where they stand.

In a country with a rich heritage of academic higher learning dating back to the ancient myths, India is currently challenged in this age of globalization to create a system of higher learning that makes it internationally competent, socially relevant and one which creates well rounded individuals who would go on to be torch bearers of the India that one envisions. As the emphasis today moves to quality in all fields of endeavour, this challenge becomes all the more daunting as the stakeholders are required to ensure penetration of high standards of quality into the existing network of professional educators.
