Experience of working in a group to achieve an objective?
At the time of my college period administration organised many cultural and academic
programmes. Once there was a competition which aimed to prepare a business plan and
performed among various teams. This programmes was wholly arranged by faculties and judged
by several entrepreneurs and judges present in college. A large number of students took part in
that programme to present their business. I was also interested in that competition so I took part
in this with proper guidance of my faculties. My team formed with 10 members and I was
appointed as a team leader of that group to present business plan with mutual concern of all
members. After this we all sat together and decide business plan but there are lot of choices in
front of us to prepare that plan. At last I chosen business plan to be made on robotics based
restaurant. According to my team management skills I assigned work to each and every member
on the basis of their talent and skills to achieve objectives that were desired by us. Business plan
was prepared by us similarly as tasks allotted to everyone and we prepared a power point of that
plan. On finale date we presented our business plan in front of all judges and they also liked it.
That experience of working in a group to achieve an objective taught me various things and
skills.
Time when new approach identified to solve a problem?
During my college period I have to do a internship of 3 months from any organisation. I
chosen a Skill Development Society for my internship programme. When I was working as an
intern in that organisation I got a survey work assigned by the manager. I have to collect data and
information related to impact of Privatisation on business from 200 respondents. Actual mistake
made that I prepared questionnaires and data according technical students but students for survey
presented there were from non-technical field. They were not able to understand data presented
to them for survey. To correct my misconduct I planned a proper research for data presented to

non technical students. All technical data and information was corrected and changed according
to their knowledge and easily understandable content, this was possible by deep study of facts
and figures. Along with this I prepared power point and depicted my whole content in diagrams
such as charts, graphs etc. that can be easily understood by them. Now this presentation was
presented in front of those students and this time they got understood data and information
easily. They were impressed and appreciated my efforts for completing that difficult task so
effectively and efficiently.
Time when a various tasks and priorities manage and complete in a short time period
During my college period, in last semester I got stuck in a situation where I have to
prioritize my work and also have to complete tasks which were pending and preparation for
exams also. In last I have some projects which need improvements and modification with this
my teacher assigned me project related to market analysis of any multinational company and
from next week I have exams also. All those works were urgent and should be perform on time.
After analysing my time schedule I prioritize work according to their superiority and planned to
complete work on time. I assigned timeline to each work for completion to achieve task
objectives. First priority I gave to old projects and made improvements in them by modifying
them and completed my task. Next priority I gave to assignment which was allotted by teacher
and performed market analysis on multinational company of UK effectively. Last and important
I decided to study for exams in order to get good marks. This shows how I managed all my
priorities together and completed tasks within predetermined time period.
Give information about the project worker one that.
One important project in which I gave my contribution when I was a student at that time
with the group of individuals I conduct research on the subject globalisation and their impact on
the society. When that project assigned to us we decided that it presented in the written format or
word form that helps to understand it easily. To get distinction in that project we create a team
and assigned each and every one its roles and responsibilities so that they can deliver their best in
achieving the project objective. In respect of that we show the small demo in front of people so
that they can review the performance of us and also find faults in project too. We also showcase
the PPT also in which the impact of globalisation on society that appraised by the viewers. So
with the help of viewers I can be able to bring reforms in the present work to deliver one of best
efforts to achieve goals and objectives properly.

Interview practice
When I was a student in collect, management of college in last semester conduct a
seminar in our college in which very great personalities visit and give proper knowledge and
information about how to behave and give one of best answers to interviewer. They also give
information about Dress code and gestures and postures at time of interview. So they give
necessary information and knowledge to behave in rational manner at time of interview process
that are as follows:

 To bring all necessary documents at time of interview and with proper information of
organisation and designation for which you applied so that applicant look presentable.
 Movement of fingers and legs shows the confidence level of applicant so keep attention
regarding their movement.
 To reach at interview venue earlier and attire should be proper that look formal not
vague.
So these information helps to look presentable and marks a good impression on the interviewer
so that they take decision in positive manner.
Assessment centre practice
For an individual it is very much obligatory to remain attentive and informative while
taking interview. In our college kinds of seminars organised that helps to overcome from
weaknesses that hinders self interest while applying for a job. With the help of necessary
knowledge and information that are potential at the time of interview which enables to become
more competitive and give their best. With the help of assessment centre I can be able to give
answers in more confident manner and motivated for giving best and attain desirable goals and
objectives in proper manner. With the help of it they conduct various doomy interviews that
helps to eliminate fear before the actual interview take place. So in which interviewer ask
question which bring accuracy in the actual interview to meet career goals and objectives in
positive way. By accessing feedback from the interviewer a candidate can reform in its
performance and can be able to give their best. So it can be said that assessment centres are very
much important for an individual to get important kinds of knowledge about itself.
