What:
Candidates will be coached in GD skills to help them strike a balance between teamwork and leadership. The coaching will
aim at sharpening various soft skills like communication and listening skills, reasoning ability, assertiveness, flexibility, creativity, etc.
Why:
GDs are a regular feature in most campus recruitment processes. Most of all, GDs test how candidates function as part of a team. Stanford Research Institute and Carnegie Mellon in the US conducted an independent study on CEOs, and found that people skills contributed three-fourths to long-term job success as opposed to technical knowledge that attributed to just 25 %.
Most students neither have training in team interaction nor know what traits recruiters are looking for through a GD, which is when
Career Sketch coaching comes to the rescue.
How:
Career Sketch would provide varied resources such as moderators, mentors and technological support to develop the required skills. It would offer practice with diverse groups to simulate real life situations. Peer and expert evaluation would provide candidates with a positive and analytical feedback.
