2. GD Tips:

--->In GD most important is to listen and then speak confidently.
---> If some topic is given first write down the points that u like to speak on a bit of paper so that you dont miss the point.
--->if somebody has already stated your points then try to justify those points.
also if possible try to give an example or add a few pros and cons.
---->if you are not getting any thing then support previous speakers.if you do this properly u would never be rejected in the GD.
--->Do nt unnecessarily try to dominate. if u dont allow others to speak then even if you are good u would not be selected.

3. PI TIPs: remember that u ar selling urself a product

---> be polite and gentle.
--->show confidence.note that body language plays important role for selecting a candidate. like always smile and maintain eye to eye contact.
--->IF ur getting nervous dont allow if to come out, like control shaking of legs, try to sit straight. do not sway ur hand too much, speak loud but Dont MUMBLE.
---> IF you get stuck while explaining.or a have a loss words. then DONT STOP try to regain momentum by saying phrases like " in another words....","altenatively the point is......" etc
--->in certain case the interviewer asks questions that you dont know. in such case try to explain of a solution, many time interviewer would give clues, in such cases if you make the right approach u would get aleast 5/10 where u were
getting 0 for the same question.
--->always shake hands with the interviwer at the end and say" thank you for this opportinty."---this may impress them .
