How to Crack Group Discussions and Personal Interviews

Group Discussions reward structured thinking and the ability to build on others' points, not just speaking the most.

In a GD, aim to make 2-3 clear, well-reasoned points rather than talking continuously — quality of contribution matters more than airtime.

For Personal Interviews, know your own resume/application form thoroughly — panels frequently probe exactly what you wrote, and inconsistencies stand out immediately.

Practice answering "tell me about yourself" and "why this field/organisation" concisely — these open nearly every interview.
