Career Development Training (CDT) is initiated to focus on resume building, group discussion skills, personal interview skills, ethics and etiquette of industries. The resume acts as a bridge between student and the prospective recruiter. Since companies do not have that much amount of time to interview each and every candidate, they require resumes from candidate to select the best ones to work with them. Group Discussion (GD) is an effective tool in problem solving, decision making and personality assessment. Participants should know how to speak with confidence, how to exhibit leadership skills and how to make the group achieve the goals. Personal Interviews (PI) help employers to evaluate the attitude of the candidate for the job.

Initially, the training used to be called as Corporate Training (CT) which is now called as Career Development Training (CDT) where industry HR professionals train students in ensuring students effectiveness in facing interviews or participating in GDs and preparing an effective resume. 1-2 mock interviews are also conducted for students, where placed alumni students conduct one-to-one interview of students and provide them the feedback about their interviews. They also motivate and guide students for effective presentation in interviews.
