State Bank of India (SBI), one of the renowned largest banks of the nation had invited applications for filling up the post of 1, 897 Probationary Officers (PO). The result for Phase I of the exam has been announced. Phase II, consisting of an interview and group discussion (GD) will commence from October 8. The call letter for the interview-cum-GD and bio-data form will be available on the official website from September 15 onwards.
Tips and Tricks to get through a GD in an impressive way:
- Be as natural as possible. Do not try to be someone you are not. Be yourself. In an attempt to be someone else, your opinions will not be portrayed;
- Sit with a straight and confident posture;
- Be assertive yet humble. You need to stick to your values and beliefs, but learn to respect the values and opinions of others too;
- Grab the opportunity to speak first, i.e. to start the group discussion with your opinion. It generally leaves a good impression on the evaluator, but take the move only if you have complete knowledge of the subject;
- Do not repeat a point, or be lengthy or irrelevant. Also intervene, if someone else is going on an irrelevant track;
