Interview Discussion: Think, Rethink and Perform; (TRP) – Day 1

Set 1: Ask these questions to yourself; contemplate and come out with a concrete answer (not to be discussed on this forum). Invest at least 30 minutes in this set of questions.

• Reflect on a significant decision you made in the past. How did it shape your life and what did you learn about yourself from that experience?
• Consider your core principles and values. How do they influence your ambitions and goals? Are your current career aspirations aligned with these values?
• Think about a challenging situation you faced. How did you handle it, and what does your approach reveal about your personality and coping mechanisms?

Set 2: Analyse the following issue: 

Picture a world where renewable energy isn’t just a part of the energy mix; it’s the main character. This isn’t a far-off dream. It’s happening now, and the speed of this change is breathtaking. Countries are pledging to reduce their carbon footprints, and renewable energy is at the center of these promises. India, with its massive population and growing energy needs, is right in the middle of this energy revolution.

Let’s dive into this scenario – How does India balance its skyrocketing energy demands with a commitment to renewable and sustainable energy? What challenges and opportunities does this big shift present, and how should India navigate them? Think about the role of technology, innovation, and policy in this transition.

We expect you to discuss the above question (Set 2) in the comments below and come out with a balanced view of the issues.

Thank You
