How was todays gd pi process? 

Had GDPI today. Doc verification was a formality. Then we were taken in for WAT. Topic was : Is MBA glorified common sense???

Then we had Case Analysis based GD. Topic was Related to a GM interferring into labour union so as pacify them. Topic samajne me 5 min gaye. Fir GD started. Soon it turned into fish market. One Girl, naam bhi le sakta hu, but our being a izzatdar forum, nai lena chahta, was so aggresive ki she didnt allow the other 11 guys n girls to speak. Therefore topic was left away n everbody kept circumventing about it like we do to a bonfire on a college trip. Judges had to intervene so tht everybody spoke. They told me to conclude which i did well thankfully. 

Interview was chilled out except they asking ki why didnt u speak up in GD?? 

Questions: Why LIBA?

DIff between FII and FDI?

Which is Good?

Then I told them that FDI is good but not reliable due to volatile markets. We need to bring the saving of indians into system which will be reliable n sustanable. There was cross questioning but I feel I satisfied them with my answers. Overall was good but could have been better except for that Girl.....bechari jaldi me thi....interview bhi jaldi khatam karke bhag gayi....

guys please post your GD/PI experiences !!

Should documents be necessarily attested by Gazetted Officers? Self-attestation won't suffice?

Do we need carry a resume with us or some kind of data sheet will be provided by liba ?

Whats the dress code - simply formals or with tie ?

having my WAT GD PI on 28th in chennai.

Can somebody pls send me a sample copy of a resume for the b-school PI process (if there's anything specific in general) ?

GD PI Experience:

Date - 27 March

Place - Kolkata

WAT - Secularism is an important part of Indian Democracy (something like this)

GD was case study based: Topic was somthing like .....

You are a manager in the sales department of a company. A new employee, Aditya , has recently joined in your dept. Manav , an employee, has been working there for a long time and has been one of the biggest money-makers. Aditya thinks Manav is inflating sales figures. Since sales figures are directly related to bonus hence, Aditya thinks it is unethical and that Manav is cheating. However, he has not been able to find any fault with Manav's sales records. Aditya wants the audit the audit dept to look into it. As a manager, what will you do?

PI was very relaxed and profile- based for me. Some people were questioned on economics and general knowledge. They asked me to relate between society and business. Which colleges you have received calls from. What is your preference......

Waitlisted 😞
