Answer: A group discussion in dialogue form among four students, with an opening, different points of view and a conclusion.

Group Discussion : Career Development
Participants : Aditya, Sneha, Farhan, Pooja

Aditya : Friends, today’s guest lecture on career development was very useful. What was the most important point for you?

Sneha : For me it was the idea that we should choose a career according to our interest and aptitude, not just because our friends or relatives are doing it.

Farhan : I agree. The speaker also said that aptitude tests and career counselling can help us know our strengths. Many of us never take such tests.

Pooja : True, but I liked his point about skills. Marks alone are not enough. Communication, computer skills and teamwork are equally important today.

Aditya : Yes, and he said career development is a lifelong process. We must keep learning even after we get a job.

Sneha : He also warned us not to fear failure. Setbacks teach us what to improve.

Farhan : I think internships and part-time projects are the best way to test a field before we commit to it.

Pooja : So, to sum up — know yourself, set clear goals, build skills and keep learning.

Aditya : Well said. Let us each prepare a career plan this week and discuss it with our teachers.
