Sir,
Can you tell me about Just a Minute round? What it is? How I can prepare for it? Please let me know as soon as possible. Waiting for your reply.

Just a minute generally referred as JAM session which means the candidate has to speak out on the given topic within one minute of time.

In some of the interviews the candidate can choose his/ her own topic or the interviewer will pose a topic to speak.

Generally, JAM session is conducted to test the fluency of English. It plays a key role in selection process.

Much preparation will not be required for JAM, just read the newspaper daily and try to make conversation with your friends in English only.
