Overcoming Communication Barriers in Interviews In India, many students fail interviews due to poor communication skills with HR despite clearing initial rounds. The speaker shares their personal struggle with English and how they overcame it through a structured process over two years. They emphasize the importance of setting goals, assessing current language proficiency via free online tests like EF Set, and committing to improvement.
Practical Steps for Improving English Skills To enhance listening skills, watch videos without captions on topics of interest while focusing keenly on understanding spoken content. Practice speaking by engaging in conversations about daily activities or using platforms that connect you with native speakers if no one is available locally. Reading 10-15 pages daily from books or articles helps build comprehension; writing regularly improves sentence framing and expression.
Building Vocabulary and Confidence Through Consistency Learning advanced vocabulary enhances fluency—replace common words with sophisticated alternatives (e.g., 'infused' instead of 'added'). Relaxation aids learning; watching shows or listening to songs in English can improve pronunciation subtly over time. Following these steps consistently for 30 days will lead to noticeable progress when retaking an assessment test at the end.
