Should GD be Part of Campus Placements?

Hi friends,

I would like to share my opinion on given topic. I agree that if someone who's communication skill is not so good but he is technically strong it may consider as he not right for job, but by GD we can share our thoughts expressively and it shows our team building capabilities. Coin has always two sides, someone take it as positive way and someone take it as negative way.

Thank you,

I think GD only shows only our communication skill it is showing how much practical knowledge we are having about our field. So, it should not be part of campus replacement.

In my opinion, GD should not be a part of selection because GD shows only communication skills it doesn't shows that how knowledge you have in technical field?

First of all I am strongly agree with you. According to me GD must the be part of the recruitment process. Why because it is the best activity that not only reflects your knowledge but also the your communication skills much more. It will give the brief information regarding your leadership, how you convince someone. And how you present yourself in front of others that is when you are working with your teammates.

If the recruiting company is related to the management or marketing field then your command on the language is of more importance. If suppose the company is related to the technical field then technical related GD should be there. The technical subjects like "should all the automobiles have ABS (antilock braking system) or not".

Hello friends,

I think GD should be a part of placement procedure but only to some extent.

Like in technical or core companies should not involve GD in their placement process as they need knowledge and technicians not a person who can only talk in public because some peoples are introvert who can talk with people comfortably when they have no fear and when they are familiar with those people to whom they are talking to.

On the other hand in consultancy companies too it should not be given that much weight age as is given to the personal interviews and their skill should be tested there only.

I feel that it is a good practice where people with good communication skills are required. But when it comes to their knowledge it might result in loss of an intellectual person. Sometimes people have a bunch of knowledge but the stage freight hinders them from entering into a good company. So if group discussion is eliminated such people will be more confident and the company will also not loose a techno-maniac.

In my opinion every thing has positive & negative thoughts. As the same the useful of GD is checking the candidate's communication skills, thinking innovation skills and knowledge about the environment skills.

The negative of GD is someone is very talent in technical skills but that time their feeling uncomfortable. At that time they does not speak. So they are eliminate.

I think GD is not important for the selection of job because the company lose the good technician.

I think it has a positive impact because it is one of the way to judge a candidate is skilled in communication and whether you posses leadership quality and adjust with the stranger. If the person is not expressed your ideas the GD is not help for your job.

I think good should remain in campus but it should not be the final decision to consider an applicant's talent and other virtues.

I am in against because some people has a knowledge about technical field but communication skills is poor. So those guys has not right to do job in any company, where GD is compulsory.
