GD Should part of campus placement because GD shows your thinking style, positive attitude about that topic. How can you express yourself in companies and team also? It also shows how to tackle any situation. It job even though they are not educates. It shows knowledge about that topic. If any one is opposite to your views then what is your reaction towards that person.

In my opinion, GD should be a part of campus because so many students studied their graduate in their mother tongue, but communication skills are most important nowadays but so many having technical skills but due to GD effect so many are loose their chances in their interviews.

So GD should be the next to technical round.

If he has technically perfect means company reaches higher levels then he will improve the communication skills automatically.

But GD should compulsory be a part of campus.

In my opinion, GD should be a part of campus placement. Recruiter gets to know about candidate like leadership quality, communication skills, wide knowledge. Gd improves myself that how to interact with people, how to put any ideas in proper way so other person agrees with my point. In any job company, we can see most of the time we interact with consumer. And also we talk with seniors they want to know our opinion. If we have no quality to express myself then this is bad for me and company.

I would like to say that gd teach me how to express yourself in the front of boss, seniors and your colleague.

GD can be a good option to select cadets but not best. If we compare GD at college placements or some recruitment places to the person who are sitting at higher position discussing India's problem and reached a common consensus by taking every person opinion for improvements equally but at college level cadets are thinking about their job only try to participate in GD create fish market doesn't reach consensus or proper views exchanging thus it fails but at national level it works very efficiently.

Yes, As per my opinion GD be a part of placements. In GD we can identify the persons speaking skills capacity. Because in any field the person wants to improve themselves by expressing their own ideas. In GD we can know about the person confidence, braveness from their voice.

Yes, it should be. In the group discussion, the recruiter gets to know more about the candidate, about their personality, their leadership skills, how they put forth their ideas and listen to others without judgment. With technical skills, the person should have the ability to express themselves else there is no use of that knowledge. The company pays you for your skills, talents. So rather than giving them excuses one should work on their soft skills.

Hi, friends.

Accorinig to me GDs should be the part of campus placement but there is no language barrier because the main motive of GD is checking the confidence level, a student can speak in front of the group of people or not. Some students are not well in English due to their diff medium of basic education but still they are better in knowledge about their core subject. So my point is GD should be carried on but with any language barrier.

Yes, I agree that GD plays a pivotal role in analysing the communication skills of the individual. It should be made compulsory for all the campus placement because whenever we get placed into a company we will have to deal with people more than with machines. And in this scenario, the power of communication will benefit the individual. Sometimes one has to negotiate, convince, communicate in such scenario one must be good in communication no matter how good you are in technically sound. Without communication skills, it would be almost impossible to climb up in the hierarchy of the company.

No, I think GD should not be the part of campus placement for engineering student as some of the person have very good technical knowledge but can't get a chance to express his or her knowledge. If we want to check the communication skills and leadership quality of a person then we have a personal interview round where we can check all the quality of a person.
