Overview
🎯
Why it matters
Your code might be brilliant, but if you can't explain it in meetings, write clear documentation, or present your ideas — you won't succeed. Communication is THE most underrated engineering skill.
💼
Placement relevance
CRITICAL for placements. 60% of interview is how you communicate, not just what you know. GD/PI rounds test this directly. Email etiquette tested in HR rounds. Presentation skills matter for L5+ roles.

Exam Strategy
✉️
Format matters more than content
Email assignments: Always check subject line, proper greeting (Dear Sir/Madam), clear paragraphs, professional tone, signature. Missing these = lost marks even if content is good.
🗣️
Practice GD topics
Common topics: AI ethics, remote work, social media impact, climate change, education system. Practice PREP method: Point + Reason + Example + Point.
🎤
Presentation = Visual + Verbal
Don't write paragraphs on slides. Use bullet points + images. Practice speaking pace (not too fast). Make eye contact. Questions are opportunities, not threats.
