QUESTION 2. What are the various aids used in present
times for enhancing presentation quality?

ANSWER 2. Presentation aids, or sensory aids, are any


additional resources used to enhance your speech. On a very
basic level, a presentation is a bunch of words used to convey
ideas to an audience. Presentation aids are additional devices,
techniques, resources or materials used to enhance the
presentation.
1. Charts and Graphs
Charts and graphs are a form of presentation aid used to
visually compare statistics and figures. These are some of the
most used forms of visual aids in the business world. Listening
to long strings of numbers can be a challenging task. Comparing
long strings of numbers without reference can be near
impossible. Overwhelmed with this type of data, most audience
members will mentally check out. Comparing simple shapes or
lines is an easier task for most people. Consider adding a chart
like the one below as a presentation aid for your audience.
2. Handouts
Handouts are physical objects given to the audience that
contain information related to the presentation. The greatest
advantage of using a handout is the physical interaction your
audience has with your presentation. Your audience has the
freedom to interact with these handouts during the
presentation — they can touch, smell, read, etc., giving them an
edge in actually retaining the information. The more senses
your audience uses during a presentation, the better.
3. Demonstration
Demonstrations are actions performed to exhibit or illustrate a
point. The goal of a demonstration is to take an abstract point
and anchor it in reality, as well as to ensure your audience
comprehends a speaking point. Demonstrations aren’t limited
to just physical demonstrations. Demonstrations may also
include allegorical stories or proofs used to prove a point.
Sharing personal stories or case studies could be categorized as
a demonstration. Here’s an example of a presentation slide
with a demo video embedded. If you don’t have the resources
to perform a live demonstration, using a tactic like this can be a
great alternative.
4. Diagrams
A diagram is a visual graphic or sketch focused on presenting
the inner workings or relations of a subject. A diagram is
different from a basic sketch. While a sketch aims to accurately
depict an object's shape, a diagram aims to explain and define
its functions and relations.
Diagrams give you the freedom to list, describe, explain and
map out your subject matter in a way that is not limited to its
physical form.
5. Video or Audio
Audio and video clips are presentation aids used to expand the
dynamic range of input in your speech. Your audience will find
it easier to engage with your presentation when you diversify
your method of delivery. An easy way to increase audiences’
sensory input is by transitioning from a simple speech into a
video or audio clip. Videos allow you to convey information in a
fast and rehearsed manner. Professional camera work captures
prearranged images, audio and speech. This means video is
capable of conveying emotion and information more effectively
than speech. For this reason, a short video clip may do a better
job at summarizing the main points of a presentation than a
speech alone.
6. Quotes
Quotations are a type of presentation aid that appeal to
outside authority and expertise. Quoting others helps establish
a positive rapport with your audience. Many people fear
quoting others makes them appear unoriginal. The opposite is
actually true. Quoting outside sources tends to drastically
improve the overall appeal of your presentation.
7. Maps
Maps are visual representations, generally two-dimensional
diagrams, that show the relative position and orientation of
something. Maps are powerful presentation aids capable of
showing valuable information beyond basic geography. Because
maps are a form of diagram, they can deliver valuable relational
information. This is especially true when used in combination
with animations or graphical overlays.
8. Photographs
Photographs are still images captured on a film or digital
medium and are a powerful visual aid. When used correctly,
photographs can add color and shape to the speech in your
presentation. The saying "a picture is worth a thousand words"
is a true statement. A picture is priceless when it’s able to
capture and accentuate a point relevant to your presentation.
Photographs are unique presentations aids that give you the
power to make a window for your audience to look through.
This allows your audience to see and experience particular
aspects of your presentation.
9. Volunteers
Volunteers are people selected from the general population to
participate in a demonstration. Using volunteers in
demonstrations is one of the most effective presentation aids
available. Using this tactic efficiently comes with all the
advantages of a classic demonstration, and so much more.
Human interaction is hardwired into us. We tend to remember
faces, body shapes, expressions and emotions. A
demonstration with volunteers lets you instantly change the
dynamic of the speech.
QUESTION 3. What is the curriculum vitae? Design a
CV applying for the post of sails executive in the pharmaceutical
company.

ANSWER 3.
A curriculum vitae is a marketing tool and may be one of the
most important documents you write in your professional life it
is sum and substance of your work history and education and
indicates the particular career direction. It should demonstrate
credibility and be interesting. Because your CV is like a personal
advertisement it should convenience a potential employer that
you are an outstanding candidate for the job and that you will
contribute to the organization.

QUESTION 4. A candidate is preparing for a campus


interview schedule in his/her college next week. What tips
would you give the candidate to face the interview
successfully?

ANSWER. The following tips for interview are as follows:


1. Review the job description
Read the job description to thoroughly understand how the
employer has described the position and the type of candidate
they are looking for. Carefully review the keywords and key
phrases the employer uses to describe their expectations. The
more you can align your skills and qualifications with the job
description, the better chances you stand to impress the
interviewer. You may also get some clues from the job
description about the questions the interviewer may ask.
2. Consider your eligibility for the job
Think about your qualifications and experience. Ask yourself
why you should apply for that job and why the employer should
hire you. Assessing how the job fits into your career path and
what value you can add to the company will help you convince
the interviewer about what makes you the best candidate for
the position.
3. Learn more about the company
Get in-depth information about the company through its
website, social media pages, employee reviews and other
online sources. Find out about its mission, management, work
culture, the types of products it offers and the types of clients it
serves. Get some insight on its latest revenue, growth
prospects and business plans. Most companies display
information about the management on their "about us" page,
employment-related information on their "careers" or "work
with us" page and information for investors on their "investor
relations" page. Researching the company well will help you
align your CV with its expectation.
4. Prepare a list of expected interview questions
Make a list of common interview questions for the given
position and frame thoughtful answers. Prepare impressive
responses to questions that give you an opportunity to
highlight your skills and interest in the job.
5. Practice mock interviews
No matter how well you prepare, it is natural to feel anxious
and overwhelmed at the time of the interview. Mock interviews
can be a great help in this regard. They can create a real
interview-like environment and help boost your confidence.
Ask your friends or family to conduct a mock interview for you.
Consider recording the entire process to analyze your
performance. If you can't find anyone to play the interviewer,
you can rehearse the interview in front of a mirror.
6. Organize your documents
You may have applied using a digital copy of your CV, but it
always helps to keep hard copies of all your documents with
you, just in case the interviewer needs them for easy access.
Take a printout of your resume and cover letter. Put all the
important documents including your mark sheets, certificates,
ID proofs and photographs in a folder. If the HR has asked you
to bring any particular documents like salary slips, relieving
letter from previous employer or bank statement, be sure to
keep them ready as well.
7. Update your social media profile
If you are on LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter or any other social
media platform, make sure you have an updated profile.
Employers often check your social media presence to get an
idea about your personality and background. Search for your
name in Google to see what results turn up. If there is anything
unpleasant, prepare yourself for a response if the interviewer
asks about it.
8. Make travel arrangements
Familiarize yourself with the location map that the company
has sent you. You can also check directions to the venue using
Google Maps. Based on the distance and the time it would take
to commute, plan your timing and decide on the mode of
transport. Have contact information of the HR department
ready with you just in case you need any help locating the
company.
9. Decide on your interview dress
Choose a formal dress that you would be wearing for the
interview. Make sure the clothes are clean and wrinkle-free. If
you plan to spray deodorant or perfume, make sure it is mild.
Overall, plan for a neat and clean look with well-cut hair and
shaved or trimmed beard.

QUESTION 5. Enumerate the guidelines to successful


group discussion.

ANSWER. Guidelines to successful GD are as follows:


1. Work on your communication skills
Nothing needs to be said more. If your communication skills are
poor then no matter how knowledgeable you are or well-
dressed you are, you are bound to face rejection. Keep
improving your communication skills by practicing with your
friends and family. If you are not a smooth speaker, you won’t
become a good one overnight. You can watch informative
videos or read good articles to get more insight on improving
your communication skills.
2. Focus on body language and posture
Sit upright. Smile, don’t stare. Do not show any aggressive
stance. Keep your hands on your thighs while sitting. Do not
gesticulate too much. Your body language plays a crucial role in
deciding your selection so pay utmost attention to this aspect.
It is strongly recommended that you get feedback from an
experienced person, preferably a public speaking coach for the
same.
3. Differ in a polite manner
Never ever be rude. If you have a different opinion to a point
made by a participant, then raise your objection in a polite
manner. Maintain a calm demeanor and say “I beg/respectfully
to disagree with the argument put forth by this
lady/gentleman/(name of the person if the names are known)”.
4. Do not go into specific details
For certain topics, you might have way more knowledge than
other participants. But if you start quoting figures and statistics
like “around 68.3% people in the state of Bihar live below
poverty line”, then please stop! No one is going to verify these
details. You will come across as a pompous show-off. Basic
knowledge and smart points are enough so that a solid
argument can be made.
5. Make eye contact with all participants
Many people make the mistake of only looking at the
evaluators during the GD, mostly in the hope of garnering a
favorable reaction from them. While it is okay to glance once or
twice, you need to make eye contact and pay attention to all
the participants. You are in a discussion with them, not the
evaluators.
6. Be a good listener, do not dominate
If you speak well then it doesn’t mean you should just go on
and on without allowing others to speak. Being a good listener
reflects you are a team player and can give space to different
opinions. Being dominant indicates you are headstrong and
probably quite arrogant also.
7. Be the Initiator
Initiating a group discussion and even closing it gives the
impression that you are a decisive person and have traits of a
leader. But beware! Do not show any bravado if your
knowledge of the GD topic is weak. In that case, it is better to
listen to a few people, formulate your points, and then put your
opinion across.
8. Do not dress casually
Dressing well and appropriately is extremely important,
because if you appear in a GD dressed shabbily or in casual
clothing, then it indicates you are not serious about the entire
process. Remember, the evaluators might not give you points
for being properly dressed but they will certainly deduct several
if you look like something the cat dragged in.
9. Enhance your knowledge of current affairs
This step is not a one-off thing but a continuous process that
needs meticulous planning from the start, and which has to be
implemented months before you actually appear for
competitive exams or participate in a campus placement drive.
You need to read widely on current affairs- both national and
international– so that you are not left dumbstruck during the
group discussion.
