Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
What is GD ??????
• Group discussion i.e. GD is a way through which an
organization identifies whether the candidate has certain
personality traits that it desires in its members.
• Hence group discussion is simply a method instrumental in
judging the team spirit, leadership qualities, out of the box
thinking, and other managerial qualities in an individual.
• It is more a technical tool than a conventional test to check
one’s personality and communication skills.
Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
GD Structure
• An average GD usually has 10 to 15 participants & the time
allotted for the discussion is normally twenty-thirty minutes.
• The GD process begins by the announcement of the topic to
the group, which is (usually) followed by a preparation time of
3 to 5 minutes.
• More than 5 minutes’ preparation time may be given only if the
GD is a case-study discussion, and has a long case statement.
• At the end of the preparation time, the panel signals the group
to commence the discussion, and from then on plays the role
of a non-participating observer.
• Basically, The GD ends in either of the two ways: first, the
panel may abruptly stop the GD and announce the end of the
process.
• Second, they may ask a participant (or more than one
participant) to summarise the GD.
• If you are asked to summarise, do remember what summary
means, your summary cannot have anything in it that was not
discussed during the GD.
• The summary must be an objective presentation of the
important points brought up during the discussion, and the
conclusion of the discussion.
GD Structure
1. Positive Personality
• A pleasing personality makes a favorable impression giving
one an edge over the others.
• Personality includes not only one’s external appearance but
also the traits one possesses.
• Thus, during group discussions the dressing style, speaking
style, attitude towards others, presentation style, and so on,
are evaluated.
• During the twenty-five-thirty minutes one has, one needs to
create a favorable impression on the evaluators.

2. Dressing Style
• Don’t wear flashy clothes while going for a group discussion or
interview.
• Candidates should also avoid cakey makeup or flaunt heavy
jewellery.
• The clattering sounds of your wearing (jewellery) sometimes
act as a disturbing element in formal discussions.
• Be in professional attire and avoid loud (dark) colors.

3. Fish Market
• During the Group Discussion there are many instances where
you will find every one is saying something and no one is
heard.
• It is better to be quiet for a while and then after gathering your
thoughts, raise your voice initially and make your point.
• But being aggressive, shouting and not allowing others in the
group to speak, is not appreciated.
Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
4. Convincing Power
• The ability to convince others by means of your speech is a
great skill that is useful for any company.
• The candidate should be able to impact the other candidates
through his thought process and indeed one must learn this
skill.
• If you are good at convincing others, one half of your work is
done.
• Failure to convince is a failure to communicate effectively.
Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
5. Interpersonal skills
• It is a skill that helps to convert a normal conversation into an
impactful conversation.
• When we say that ‘you should sound confident’, it not only
involves the way you speak but your overall appearance as a
whole.
• The soft skills required include using voice modulation,
pronunciation and tone in an appropriate manner.
• One can take proper training in soft skills or imbibe some tips
of presenting oneself in the corporate world.
Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
6. Body language
• The candidate must maintain a consistent eye contact with
the entire group as he or she speaks, and the listeners must
reciprocate.
• Hand movements are to your speech what punctuation is to
your writing.
• If used wisely they beautifully enhance the effect of your
words; if used unwisely they attract unnecessary attention
and distract the listener from your words.
• Do not engage your hands with something pointless such as
playing with the pen, or tapping on the desk, or running
through your hair.
Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
7. Content
• What you say during the discussion is looked into from two
perspectives, relevance and comprehensiveness.
• It is possible that a participant has talked a great deal in a GD,
but he or she may have deviated from the topic significantly, in
which case the content is deemed largely irrelevant without the
possibility of further evaluation.
• If the content has been relevant to the topic, the panel
examines whether your treatment of the topic is superficial or
in-depth, distinction we shall discuss in detail in the next few
posts.
Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
8. Communication Skills
• You may have good and rich content with lot of ideas but if you are
not able to communicate well your thoughts and opinions, all is
useless.
• Be well versed in your communication skills.
• You should have a good vocabulary and a decent command over
English.
• Much before your actual group discussion, rehearse well. Not only
will this increase your knowledge, you will be a better speaker by
the time it is time for your GD.
• In case you are not sure about something, you can use phrases such
as: “I think” or “Probably/Approximately” or “If I remember
correctly”.
Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
9. Clarity of Points
• Without stating your views clearly, you can’t make an impact
even if you have more insightful knowledge about Group
Discussion topic.
• So, try to state your opinions clearly. But, don’t forget to use
simple and easily understandable words while speaking.
• And one more thing to remember is that don’t get aggressive
even if you’re disagreeing with someone.
• All these key things can help you to convince others on your
logical and right ideas on the topic given in GD.
Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
10. Knowledge and Awareness
• Having good subject knowledge and rich content is the first and
foremost GD tip to enter the Group Discussion Round.
• You should have subject knowledge and be well aware of the latest
happenings around you, not just in India but around the world as
well.
• If you are a good reader and read on variety of topics, it will help you
in group discussion round.
• Reading not only adds to your knowledge database, but enhances
your vocabulary skills as well.
• Always choose the magazines, journals, newspapers, and watch
current affairs programmes that are information rich.
Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
11. Initiator
• Introduce yourself and your team members and then start with the
topic
• Initiate the group discussion only when you are clear about the topic
because speaking without the subject knowledge gives bad
impression.
• Don’t wait for the others to start the discussion. Always volunteer
yourself and start the discussions in an extremely confident manner.
• Try to start the group discussion with your opinion if you have
complete knowledge of the subject, this will leave a good impression
in evaluator’s mind.
• Also give chance to let speak others and then respond with a polite,
intelligent comment. Don’t dominate.
Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
12. Coordination
• The participant’s ability to coordinate the team and work in
harmony with others is another ingredient for success in
group discussions.
• One must display the ability to take control of the discussion
without operating to be dominating.
• Do not interrupt when others are talking.
• Even if you are not agreeing with other person, don’t interrupt,
Everybody has their own opinion.
Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
13. Voice Level
• While discussion goes to a tense point, many candidates lost
patience and starts shouting out their points that messes up
their point in their voice.
• Be polite while discussing and give your point politely to
maintain the discussion and make your point understandable
to others.
• Speedy voice, crossing others comments or aggressive mood
makes your point useless and affectless.
Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
14. Supportive Data
• Use facts and illustrations to add value.
• However, be very sure of the validity of any statistic you quote.
• If you mention a wrong figure, someone in the group could
point out the mistake.
• A fact or a statistic can support a point you are making.
Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
15. Dominance (Interrupt)
• Always remember that it is a discussion and not a battle.
• In the heat of the moment never lose your control of speech
and decency.
• You are there to share your point of view and not to start an
argument. Respect others views and do not try to dominate
your views or point. Being patient and calm is the key.
• It is considered mannerless to interrupt someone while
talking.
Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
16. Attitude
• Always remember that your attitude will make a huge
difference in GD-PI.
• Stay positive and show your positive personality. Be kind
enough to give others a chance to speak, and when putting
your view forth, be polite.
• Do not let others have an impression about you being rude or
arrogant.
• Be confident of what you talk. Be presentable and don’t
dominate others. Show interest in discussion.
Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
17. Listener
• Remember you just have to put your points and not force other
person to accept your point and end up in argument.
• Listening not only helps to understand the topic from others
point of view but also helps to think accordingly and reach the
solution to the problem or discussion.
• Unless you listen well, it will not be possible for you to add
value to your content and communication
• Listening offers you the opportunity to summarise the Group
Discussion on each and every aspect.
•Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
18. Confidence
• If you have a valid point, but do not put it across confidently,
you might fail to earn a brownie point there.
• On the other hand, if you speak with confidence, you will be
noticed and people will be interested in listening to what you
have to say.
• It’s very important to keep an eye contact while you are talking
as it reflects your confidence.
• Be real. Be yourself. In an attempt to be someone else, your
opinions will not be portrayed. Be confident and sit straight.
Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
19. Make Friends
• Get people on your side and ensure that they are receptive to
your arguments.
• They will not only allow you to interject in the discussion, but
they will also support your arguments.
• You could build friends by giving others a chance to speak
when they are in agreement with you (but only after you feel
you have made your point).
• Try and appear friendly, not intimidating. Smile, it often works.
Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
20. Research
• Keep a track of topics that are mainly discussed in the GDs.
• Beware of what’s happening around you, what’s making news
and what’s the latest buzz.
• But the research on a particular topic should be more nuanced
rather than a generic one as you are supposed to debate on it.
• Your knowledge might be sourced from news headlines,
newspapers, internet, books, informative TV channels etc.
Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
21. Leadership
• Driving the discussion is a good idea, but make sure that you
appear as a leader and not a dominator.
• There could be a situation where you do not have enough
information on the given topic.
• Take charge and start your conversation forward.
• Once you take charge of the discussion, make sure that you
speak to the point without dragging the topic for the sake of
it.
Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
22. Presentation
• Without stating your views clearly, you can’t make an impact even if you
have more insightful knowledge about Group Discussion topic.
• So, try to state your opinions clearly. But, don’t forget to use simple and
easily understandable words while speaking.
• Don’t get aggressive even if you’re disagreeing with someone.
• It must appear that the point that is being discussed in the GD is relevant
and making sense.
• Always remember Scattered thoughts will only confuse the examiner.
Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
23. Decision Making
• Candidates who possess decision making ability are sure to
mark an impression on the examiner.
• At any given point of time, the examiner might expect a
decision from you.
• If you do not know how to take a decision, you might fumble
and miss out on the chance of making it to the next round.
Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
24. Presence of Mind
• During a Group Discussion, in the course of arguments and
counter-arguments, participants often ignore the topic of
discussion.
• In such situation, you must take the lead and try to bring the
discussion back to the right path.
• So, to showcase your leadership in a group discussion, try to
keep the discussion in right direction.
• It can help you to impress the selectors who closely observe
every candidate participating in the GD.
25. Summarization
• Just as initiating a group discussion helps to grab the attention
of the GD evaluators.
• Similarly, summarization too is an opportunity to turn heads of
the evaluators.
• The summary should be short and to the point and no new
points should be added for further discussion.
• Make sure that the summary is not single sided but an
amalgamation of the both sides of the discussion.

Best GD tips by, Er. Swapnil V. Kaware

  • 1. Best Group Discussion Tips For More Contents, do subscribe to my channel on you tube as, ”Tech_Guru Swapnil Kaware” Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
  • 2. What is GD ?????? • Group discussion i.e. GD is a way through which an organization identifies whether the candidate has certain personality traits that it desires in its members. • Hence group discussion is simply a method instrumental in judging the team spirit, leadership qualities, out of the box thinking, and other managerial qualities in an individual. • It is more a technical tool than a conventional test to check one’s personality and communication skills. Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
  • 3. GD Structure • An average GD usually has 10 to 15 participants & the time allotted for the discussion is normally twenty-thirty minutes. • The GD process begins by the announcement of the topic to the group, which is (usually) followed by a preparation time of 3 to 5 minutes. • More than 5 minutes’ preparation time may be given only if the GD is a case-study discussion, and has a long case statement. • At the end of the preparation time, the panel signals the group to commence the discussion, and from then on plays the role of a non-participating observer.
  • 4. • Basically, The GD ends in either of the two ways: first, the panel may abruptly stop the GD and announce the end of the process. • Second, they may ask a participant (or more than one participant) to summarise the GD. • If you are asked to summarise, do remember what summary means, your summary cannot have anything in it that was not discussed during the GD. • The summary must be an objective presentation of the important points brought up during the discussion, and the conclusion of the discussion. GD Structure
  • 5. 1. Positive Personality • A pleasing personality makes a favorable impression giving one an edge over the others. • Personality includes not only one’s external appearance but also the traits one possesses. • Thus, during group discussions the dressing style, speaking style, attitude towards others, presentation style, and so on, are evaluated. • During the twenty-five-thirty minutes one has, one needs to create a favorable impression on the evaluators. Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
  • 6. 2. Dressing Style • Don’t wear flashy clothes while going for a group discussion or interview. • Candidates should also avoid cakey makeup or flaunt heavy jewellery. • The clattering sounds of your wearing (jewellery) sometimes act as a disturbing element in formal discussions. • Be in professional attire and avoid loud (dark) colors. Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
  • 7. 3. Fish Market • During the Group Discussion there are many instances where you will find every one is saying something and no one is heard. • It is better to be quiet for a while and then after gathering your thoughts, raise your voice initially and make your point. • But being aggressive, shouting and not allowing others in the group to speak, is not appreciated. Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
  • 8. 4. Convincing Power • The ability to convince others by means of your speech is a great skill that is useful for any company. • The candidate should be able to impact the other candidates through his thought process and indeed one must learn this skill. • If you are good at convincing others, one half of your work is done. • Failure to convince is a failure to communicate effectively. Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
  • 9. 5. Interpersonal skills • It is a skill that helps to convert a normal conversation into an impactful conversation. • When we say that ‘you should sound confident’, it not only involves the way you speak but your overall appearance as a whole. • The soft skills required include using voice modulation, pronunciation and tone in an appropriate manner. • One can take proper training in soft skills or imbibe some tips of presenting oneself in the corporate world. Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
  • 10. 6. Body language • The candidate must maintain a consistent eye contact with the entire group as he or she speaks, and the listeners must reciprocate. • Hand movements are to your speech what punctuation is to your writing. • If used wisely they beautifully enhance the effect of your words; if used unwisely they attract unnecessary attention and distract the listener from your words. • Do not engage your hands with something pointless such as playing with the pen, or tapping on the desk, or running through your hair. Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
  • 11. 7. Content • What you say during the discussion is looked into from two perspectives, relevance and comprehensiveness. • It is possible that a participant has talked a great deal in a GD, but he or she may have deviated from the topic significantly, in which case the content is deemed largely irrelevant without the possibility of further evaluation. • If the content has been relevant to the topic, the panel examines whether your treatment of the topic is superficial or in-depth, distinction we shall discuss in detail in the next few posts. Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
  • 12. 8. Communication Skills • You may have good and rich content with lot of ideas but if you are not able to communicate well your thoughts and opinions, all is useless. • Be well versed in your communication skills. • You should have a good vocabulary and a decent command over English. • Much before your actual group discussion, rehearse well. Not only will this increase your knowledge, you will be a better speaker by the time it is time for your GD. • In case you are not sure about something, you can use phrases such as: “I think” or “Probably/Approximately” or “If I remember correctly”. Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
  • 13. 9. Clarity of Points • Without stating your views clearly, you can’t make an impact even if you have more insightful knowledge about Group Discussion topic. • So, try to state your opinions clearly. But, don’t forget to use simple and easily understandable words while speaking. • And one more thing to remember is that don’t get aggressive even if you’re disagreeing with someone. • All these key things can help you to convince others on your logical and right ideas on the topic given in GD. Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
  • 14. 10. Knowledge and Awareness • Having good subject knowledge and rich content is the first and foremost GD tip to enter the Group Discussion Round. • You should have subject knowledge and be well aware of the latest happenings around you, not just in India but around the world as well. • If you are a good reader and read on variety of topics, it will help you in group discussion round. • Reading not only adds to your knowledge database, but enhances your vocabulary skills as well. • Always choose the magazines, journals, newspapers, and watch current affairs programmes that are information rich. Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
  • 15. 11. Initiator • Introduce yourself and your team members and then start with the topic • Initiate the group discussion only when you are clear about the topic because speaking without the subject knowledge gives bad impression. • Don’t wait for the others to start the discussion. Always volunteer yourself and start the discussions in an extremely confident manner. • Try to start the group discussion with your opinion if you have complete knowledge of the subject, this will leave a good impression in evaluator’s mind. • Also give chance to let speak others and then respond with a polite, intelligent comment. Don’t dominate. Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
  • 16. 12. Coordination • The participant’s ability to coordinate the team and work in harmony with others is another ingredient for success in group discussions. • One must display the ability to take control of the discussion without operating to be dominating. • Do not interrupt when others are talking. • Even if you are not agreeing with other person, don’t interrupt, Everybody has their own opinion. Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
  • 17. 13. Voice Level • While discussion goes to a tense point, many candidates lost patience and starts shouting out their points that messes up their point in their voice. • Be polite while discussing and give your point politely to maintain the discussion and make your point understandable to others. • Speedy voice, crossing others comments or aggressive mood makes your point useless and affectless. Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
  • 18. 14. Supportive Data • Use facts and illustrations to add value. • However, be very sure of the validity of any statistic you quote. • If you mention a wrong figure, someone in the group could point out the mistake. • A fact or a statistic can support a point you are making. Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
  • 19. 15. Dominance (Interrupt) • Always remember that it is a discussion and not a battle. • In the heat of the moment never lose your control of speech and decency. • You are there to share your point of view and not to start an argument. Respect others views and do not try to dominate your views or point. Being patient and calm is the key. • It is considered mannerless to interrupt someone while talking. Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
  • 20. 16. Attitude • Always remember that your attitude will make a huge difference in GD-PI. • Stay positive and show your positive personality.

Be presentable and don’t dominate others. Show interest in discussion. Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
  • 21. 17. Listener • Remember you just have to put your points and not force other person to accept your point and end up in argument. • Listening not only helps to understand the topic from others point of view but also helps to think accordingly and reach the solution to the problem or discussion. • Unless you listen well, it will not be possible for you to add value to your content and communication • Listening offers you the opportunity to summarise the Group Discussion on each and every aspect. •Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
  • 22. 18. Confidence • If you have a valid point, but do not put it across confidently, you might fail to earn a brownie point there. • On the other hand, if you speak with confidence, you will be noticed and people will be interested in listening to what you have to say. • It’s very important to keep an eye contact while you are talking as it reflects your confidence. • Be real. Be yourself. In an attempt to be someone else, your opinions will not be portrayed. Be confident and sit straight. Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
  • 23. 19. Make Friends • Get people on your side and ensure that they are receptive to your arguments. • They will not only allow you to interject in the discussion, but they will also support your arguments. • You could build friends by giving others a chance to speak when they are in agreement with you (but only after you feel you have made your point). • Try and appear friendly, not intimidating. Smile, it often works. Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
  • 24. 20. Research • Keep a track of topics that are mainly discussed in the GDs. • Beware of what’s happening around you, what’s making news and what’s the latest buzz. • But the research on a particular topic should be more nuanced rather than a generic one as you are supposed to debate on it. • Your knowledge might be sourced from news headlines, newspapers, internet, books, informative TV channels etc. Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
  • 25. 21. Leadership • Driving the discussion is a good idea, but make sure that you appear as a leader and not a dominator. • There could be a situation where you do not have enough information on the given topic. • Take charge and start your conversation forward. • Once you take charge of the discussion, make sure that you speak to the point without dragging the topic for the sake of it. Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
  • 26. 22. Presentation • Without stating your views clearly, you can’t make an impact even if you have more insightful knowledge about Group Discussion topic. • So, try to state your opinions clearly. But, don’t forget to use simple and easily understandable words while speaking. • Don’t get aggressive even if you’re disagreeing with someone. • It must appear that the point that is being discussed in the GD is relevant and making sense. • Always remember Scattered thoughts will only confuse the examiner. Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
  • 27. 23. Decision Making • Candidates who possess decision making ability are sure to mark an impression on the examiner. • At any given point of time, the examiner might expect a decision from you. • If you do not know how to take a decision, you might fumble and miss out on the chance of making it to the next round. Best GD Tips by Er. Swapnil V. Kaware (svkaware@yahoo.co.in)
  • 28. 24. Presence of Mind • During a Group Discussion, in the course of arguments and counter-arguments, participants often ignore the topic of discussion. • In such situation, you must take the lead and try to bring the discussion back to the right path. • So, to showcase your leadership in a group discussion, try to keep the discussion in right direction. • It can help you to impress the selectors who closely observe every candidate participating in the GD.
  • 29. 25. Summarization • Just as initiating a group discussion helps to grab the attention of the GD evaluators. • Similarly, summarization too is an opportunity to turn heads of the evaluators. • The summary should be short and to the point and no new points should be added for further discussion. • Make sure that the summary is not single sided but an amalgamation of the both sides of the discussion.
