Discuss Ask Question
THE FOLLOWING ARE THE TECHNIQUES:-
GROUP DISCUSSION
Firstly the GTO gives two subjects to the group and the group is asked to discuss one subject. In second phase the GTO gives them one subject from his side. The subject is also discussed for about 15-20 minutes. In group discussion, the GTO assesses
The candidate’s power of expression (not necessarily English)
His manner of speech
His awareness of topic
His ability to put across reasons in support of his views.
His ability in grasping details, facts and figures.
Is he respective to other’s views in regard to his views?
Whether a candidate gives up or succumbs under opposition to others when he knows he is right?
Whether he encourages others, specially weaker candidates to speak.
GROUP PLANNING EXERCISE
To find out candidates’ ability to solve day-to-day problems in which certain amount of risk is also involved and also to assess his general awareness;
To gauge if candidate is able to understand and muster available and imaginary resources, which are practical;
To assess if candidate is able to function effectively in a group.
INDIVIDUAL OBSTACLE
Do not try to do it serially.
Plan your course in such a manner that you do all the ten obstacles moving from easy to difficult.
Show urgency and a sense of purpose in your effort.
Do not hesitate on heights or pits.
GROUP TASKS – Progressive Group Task; Group Obstacle Race : The rationale
Is the candidate able to function in the group as an effective member?
Is he endowed with enough intelligence and practical imagination to be an effective member of the group?
Is he receptive to others ideas and also able to give his own ideas?
Is he reluctant to soil his hands?
Is he a hardworking individual?
Is he an arm chair planner? Or both a good planner and a person, who can implement his ideas?
Is he in the area of activity or away from it?
Is he rigidly obstinate or flexible and amenable and receptive person, so that there is progress in the efforts of the group?
Is he aware of the rules? Does he realize when he breaks rules and does he rectify the mistakes?
Does he restrain his cool and composure even under stress/pressure?
Is he scared to take risks? But on the other hand is he foolhardy ?
Is he physically tough?
Is his work based on practical imagination?
COMMAND TASK
Understand the task thoroughly, when the GTO explains it. Ask for clarification, if some features are not clear, but do not request repetition of rules, which he would have explained earlier. This will only reveal the fact that you are incapable of remembering simple instructions/comprehension.
Before you begin the task, explain the task and rules to your subordinates briefly. After the task, when they are to go, thank them.
The helping material should be related to the structures and must be utilized for the same.
Choose your subordinate not because you travel together or he is your country cousin but be discriminate. Further, you may like to have a suitably hard working fellow. But avoid the rigid die-hard persons, who may question you.
Be conscious and do not allow anyone to break the rules.
A good commander is one, who will work along with his subordinates if required.
Treat your subordinates with politeness and if somebody has done a good job encourage him.
If you get stuck due to some reasons, do not ask suggestions from your subordinates and work out the solutions yourself.
Some times, the GTO may do away with some resources or helping material or certain structures. This is only to pressurize you. So do not get nervous and be cool and find a workable solution.
Endeavor should be to complete the task. But do not worry, if you could not complete the task because it may also be due to the fact that the gto has put impediments in your way.
So, when he asks later, explain clearly, as to what you had planned to do. Never blame your subordinates for your inability to complete the task.
LECTURETTE : Element of Evaluation
The general knowledge / awareness of the candidate and the subject matter.
The power of expression and delivery.
Confidence of the candidate.
Time plan.
Never resort to mannerisms and notes.
Never try to put on an artificial accent.
Stand erect in a balanced manner. Even the way you stand and face the group suggests something of your personality and demeanor.
Do not give wrong facts and figures.
Do not overshoot the time given and do not give up before time.
