I think that not only in campus placements but also in schools, it should be made as an extra- curricular activity so that students can be helped more at the time of their interviews and campus placements. It is an easy way of judging the communication skills effectively of every member participating in GD as we cannot judge the communication skills of a person in a small talk or interview.

GD is a good tool to judge the communication skills of a person. It tells the recruiter about how well they can interact with different people in different scenarios and get their viewpoints agreed upon. It tells about the general knowledge of a candidate- how well informative a person is about day-to-day happenings. It checks how expressively can a candidate put forward his viewpoints.

According to my opinion, gd should or should not be the part of campus it's all depends on the profile of job if the job is technical so there is a no need of GD because in technical job our first preference is technical skills and secondary is communication skills because of secondary we can't we reject anyone if the job is nontechnical so communication skills is more important.

As an individual, I think that GD is to judge the speaking ability of a person.
And GD also plays a very vital role to know the image/ideology of society in the eye of that men. When he/she try to give his/her view at that time they want to explore themselves and they speak from the heart what they thought.
GD is also helped us to know the thinking ability of that person.

Dear friends, our GD topic is should GD be a part of campus placements. In my opinion it is the requirement of job profile. If it is a managerial post then it is required and if it's a technical post then it's not necessary. But it is a plus point of a candidate. If you are good at GD it's mean that you can better express yourself and it helps to engage in group activity.

GD is really a good way of evaluating the communication skills and leadership qualities of a candidate. But yes, it does not show the technical and academic knowledge one possess. A company should not shortlist the candidate only on communication skills because ultimately it is the knowledge of the candidate which is most important for success and growth of the company.

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.

As every coin has two faces, similarly on this topic it has two sides.
Yes GD must be a part of selection. Why not? It shows your confidence, communication skills, knowledge, common sense and lot more.
But on the other side based on these things you cannot judge a person about his ability regarding job profile.
The candidate must be judge by his overall performance.

As per my view, Gd should be part of the interview by which he comes to know how the person expresses his idea and showcase his communication skill but toward Technical section, only communication skill is not sufficient person also should have sufficient knowledge of field so. It never to be compulsory or there is no elimination in gd in specially technical interview.

Yes, because in my point of view, the recruiter should know about the candidates about there way of expressing their own ideas and thoughts because communication plays a major part in every sector. If a person is eligible to express and understand the thoughts of others then the Selection process will goes on and the person seems to be eligible for that sector also.
