PERSONALITY DEVELOPMENT

Personality tests are used to assess the behaviour and poise of the individual. A useful technique, it helps understand the personality of the candidates, their traits, biases and their preferences and how the same may be leveraged for getting maximum benefits.

Personality Tests are a must-go through if the candidate has secured the qualifying cut-off scores in the written test. After aptitude testing through the written test, companies and institutions assess individual’s personalities by placing them in group situations and through one-to-one interviews.

GROUP DISCUSSION

What’s a Group Discussion? A group discussion or GD, is a situation where a group of 6-12 people are made to discuss a given topic and arrive at some common understanding of the topic. Group members are given a topic, a few minutes to jot down their ideas, followed by 15-20 minutes of discussion about the topic.

A Group Discussion seeks to analyse the topic from as many angles as possible and try to arrive at a conclusion of a particular framework. At Horizon Reach, you are taught as to how you should conduct as a group member and put forth your views on the topic. We teach three types of topics:

ISSUE BASED TOPICS
These are usually topics of general or current interest including general, political, social and economic issues. We teach as to how you should participate effectively and possess a fair level of awareness and understanding of contemporary issues.

CASE STUDIES
