so you do admit that psu banks are also at fault like IIM'S right and ssc has also barred candidates for no fault of theirs like faulty instructions from invigilators


in a nutshell iims banks etc are not perfect they can also be at fault ie everybody is naked in the sauna.

but here banks are giving the percentage criteria before itself.. but IIMS do not.. ok lets leave it at that... wat u say is partially true and it depends on the individuals who handle matters as well... ok brother i think its already dam late and see u tomo.. ciao!! :cheers:

but in that way, only economics ppl qualify for banks..even i had a paper - banking n finance...banks however ask for applications from all probable fields..so anyone can shift from any line to banking..or else bank recruiters would have narrowed the po recruitment to eco ppl only..this is though a very rude answer

I just presented an example....we can not just say what we honestly feel about anything.

just seen an add somewhere on this page im struck by the subtle differences that can be used to target the whole brand per se
the recent marketing and advertising of the brands like THE HINDU and CAREER LAUNCHER is awesome...
1. The Hindu caption - stay ahead of the times.. (they mean times of india here)
2. career launcher - TIME is not on your side( they meant TIME institute

thats insanely true!!! i just feel those institutes or companies which are not sure whether their recruitment or admission might give them the right candidate would actually put such percentage criteria.. so that they can play safe... upsc and ssc know completely that the candidate that has passed their exam and their interview would serve the purpose of the job because they completely believe in their recruitment and admission... thats how i take when any organisation puts any percentage criteria...

bhai i understand what you are saying and i am also against it except iim c i might not have a shot at any old iim's

and the same applies for banks also if the govt is so considerate then why are the banks like pnb etc asking for 60% which is also high for various deserving candidates and that too after considering that ibps had just asked for graduation.

psang Says

but generally govt. borrow money..it doesnt ever prints money actually no govt.(economy) in world prints money to overcome deficit(recent eg. eurozone crisis, eurozone can print money to get the piigs outta crisis but no it is actually doing bailouts and lending(further) them only)..It can increase taxes and different sort of fees but in the next budget only..for ongoing budget year it borrows money..

government borrows money to overcome the debt not deficit..
debts are nothing but the accumulated deficits.
money are printed on the basis of economy growth and to meet the ppls money requirement..

correct me if i am wrong

YES i understand that many good colleges like MDI AND xlri dont go with past academics... thats y i said its mainly the IIMS..(the 60-70 acads percentage IAS guy will be trained at HBS, but he got that chance because of the govt interview) yes they(iims.. might have their own reasons for changing the admission pattern..(they dont feature in the top 20 list just like that)... im only saying and supporting the admission process of the govt interviews .. thats it... iims a,b,c rock... !! their admission process does not (atleast for the candidates like me.. who has 70's past acads)...

bhai i understand what you are saying and i am also against it except iim c i might not have a shot at any old iim's thats why i said before 2009

and the same applies for banks also if the govt is so considerate then why are the banks like pnb etc asking for 60% which is also high for various deserving candidates and that too after considering that ibps had just asked for graduation.

@priyam... haha loll.. server problem... or else y will i quote myself and discuss it myself.. haha..

this has come into the picture from 2009 only and before that people with lesser percentages and i mean real low have made the cut and come out big AND also IAS officers undergo training in IIM AND HBS and also and IAS and MBA FROM IIM have different responsibilities each in it's own construct and fulfilling that immense responsibility is not possible if the person in question has superficial qualities and mind you there are very good colleges like MDI XLRI Which dont take academics into consideration.

guys tell us something about yourself ka copy paste answer de do i.e the syntax

while searching for this answer on net i have gone thru a blog which hs helped me....i believe would help u to in framing the answer...

INTERVIEWS

not all hrs are good ..and we can not expect them to be so..and not all hrs are bad too,,,
we have to be ready for all situation..
answer should be like that suits both type of hrs.
who knows we may meet bad hrs who doesn't like our truth..

hmm...i am happy the pnb ppl liked me.. he he..anyways, cuz am an hr now, i ll look for honest n talented ppl..

ITS maily THE IIMS THAT LOOK FOR SUPERFICIAL THINGS... 80% + IN 10TH , 12TH , GRAD.. in addition to getting that 98 percentile in CAT... if they need people like that with such background and if they believe its right way... theN y would ias toppers be in mediocre 70 percentages(in most cases 60's too) in 10th,12th, grad??? in what way a manager of a corporate be more responsible than the manager of a district( i mean the district collector and police commissioner here)??? so its IIMS who go for superficial and they might have their own reasons... its the govt sector that take into consideration the average students as well and give them a chance to excel even though how bad their past academic performances are... !!!

who knows we may meet bad hrs who doesn't like our truth..

see you should clarify obviously IIM'S OR OTHER GOOD COLLEGES would never look for superficial things or qualities otherwise they wont be good and wouldnt produce people raghuram rajan sanjeev bhikchandani et al and maam another point PO's are at the manager level and believe me they are leaving psu banks in swarms

and what offense sis this is just discussion

arrey offence word aise hi use kar liya socha nahi maine kuchh..tension mat le..but i had that sort of an experience from two top mba colleges in India..i wish i cud name them in public..waise chhor na..jo hua achhe ke liye hi hua

guys tell us something about yourself ka copy paste answer de do i.e the syntax

some colleges do...trust me they do..not the iims for sure, but some top 25 colleges do.... however, no offence meant..personal opinion

I know honesty is the best policy,and out of honesty, if i say them that I did my engg. and after completing 4yrs I got to know that technical is not my cup of tea and I cultivated myself and I found that I am passionate about banking sector..then I can be badly humiliated you know..

So according to me interview is not only about being honest ..it is more about not concealing the truth and not telling a lie.. u have to obtain a median path..formulate your answer accordingly..

Budget includes revenues and spending,deficit can either be positive or negative. In general budget deficit means revenues fall short of spending means revenues are less and spending is more ..

same can be controlled by either increasing the revenues by increasing taxes or by reducing spending.

@loverbryan..
deficit is not overcomed by printing more currency, its more to do with exports and imports.. if the exports are more than imports than there will be a reduction in deficit...

Budget includes revenues and spending,deficit can either be positive or negative. In general budget deficit means revenues fall short of spending means revenues are less and spending is more ..

@loverbryan.. i think when he asked about how RBI regulates banks then i guess he wanted to know what is repo rate, reverse repo and functions of RBI etc... any way wish u best of luck for the coming interviews...
deficit is not overcomed by printing more currency, its more to do with exports and imports.. if the exports are more than imports than there will be a reduction in deficit... (printing of notes might lead to inflation)... just go through these basics then you would sail through the next interviews ... nothing to worry.. u never know u might actually get selected in this only may be...
all the best!!!!

oh.. so u are working as specialist officer in PNB? or just got selected the other day when the results were out... ?
amyways congrats!!! specialist officers directly land you in scale 2 right?? thats awesome!

Some one posted his interview experience on a bank forum
Venue- Jaipur
Time- 10:00 AM
Date- 11 February
My interview was scheduled at 10:00 am but my turn was at 12:30 pm.

there were 18 aspirants in my batch and 2 or 3 were absent, many of them were clerks working already. When I entered in the room, there were 3 members in the panel, two of them aged and one was about 40 years.It lasted about 10 to 12 minutes and took place in Hindi only. After entered in the room I wished them.
M1- What is your name? I got little confused what should I pronounce it?
me answered and then he offered me seat. I sit with thanking them.
M1-How many interviewed you faced earlier?
me-sit it is my first interview.
M1-well you had completed M.Sc, then why do tou want join bank?
me- answered and little bit discussion on this point, I don't know if he was convinced.
M1-What is budget.?
me-answered.
M1-Govt, always got budget of deficit, How do they complete this deficit?
me-Sorry sir, I don't know. (later realized may be govt. prints more currency but couldn't answer them.)
M1- Tell me about RBI. What does it do?
me-answered.
M1- How RBI regulates banks?
me- sorry sir I don't know.may be RBI has board of directors, it regulates banks by governing body.
M2 did not ask any question he was only observing.
M3- what is CBS?
me- answered
M3- what do you understand by CORE?
me--centralized online real time but could not recall E?
M3- E-environment
me-yes sir may be(but later came to know it was exchange)
M3-What do you know about Union bank Of India?
me- answered history but he want to know about business of UBI? I could not tell its business.
M3- was it in profit or loss in last year?
me- sir It got profit.
M3-How much profit?
me- sir don't know.
M3- You should know.
me- Sorry sir. I did not heed in this side.
M1- You can go now.

Overall I was not satisfied with my performance, specially I could not tell last year profit.

i believe CORE stands for - centralised online realtime electronic
n CBS for- core banking solution
plz any1 rectify me if m wrong...

what if the interviewer confront you with a question like...
as of now you are liking banking wt if after one year you wont??you will leave our bank and again we have to hire a new employee at your place so why should we hire you at this time and waste efforts to train you?

Yup, they would definitely ask that !!!!

then i guess i would say.. ummm during education previous class' course or study wouldnt prevent us from taking the course we like at a higher level.. like bio in 12th bca or bba in grad etc.. but job is something where previous exp will matter a lot when we want to go to a higher level(mostly that is)... a banker would in all probability would remain a banker assuming he doesnt do and MBA, civils, SSC etc... and even if he wants to shifts companies he would remain in banking related field... electrical engg would remain elec engg through out( a guy asst enginner in a state electricity board might change companies like NTPC, BHEL,TATA POWER but would remain in the same domain through out)... so one deciding for a job would obviously be very sure what path and what life he wants to lead than changing his preferences at will.(which obviously will not help him either if he wants to shift)..:o with a grin... then interviewers would obviously look at me like this getting ready to screw me with next question which some of you might ask me (like the one which u just asked me.. if it was asked in interview i would certainly be short of breath)...

what if the interviewer confront you with a question like...
as of now you are liking banking wt if after one year you wont??you will leave our bank and again we have to hire a new employee at your place so why should we hire you at this time and waste efforts to train you?

plz answer ths m in real dilemma wht to answer...n ya what shud i say abt ma 2 yrs drop after 12th..plz

Hello puys..

I have been reading stuff on this site for quite some time and this is for the first time I am posting something.

First of all, I would like to thank you all for initiating some great discussions here.

Actually I am facing a very serious dilemma these days. I have done my engineering(batch 2011) and got placed in TCS. But, sadly, I got my joining in march 2012. A long2 time. In the mean while I gave IBPS PO and got tws 175. I have my UBI interview coming up and also I have applied for syndicate,BOI,PNB.

Now my Q is whether I should join TCS or bank(considering I get selected). I don't when the banks will announce result and when would they give joining. So, in case I go and join TCS in the mean while, and I leave then I'll have to give them 50k, the bond amount...!!

I am going through quite a rough patch facing these hard ques. What should I go for??

P.S. I am 22 and I intend to pursue MBA, may be after an experience of 2 years or something.

Thanx a ton in advance my fellow aspirants.

Small advice from my side... never join a job thinking to achieve something unrelated to it... are u pretty sure that u are somehow going to do the MBA?? if the answer is yes then joining either TCS or bank PO would not matter... but see nothing is certain... if u do not happen to do MBA? think that way.. would you be satisfied with a bank po job ? or would you want to be in software...and jump from TCS to GE to IBM to MICROSOFT....!! (software gives u that edge AND you can earn huge)... so my advice would take the present best option and then after u start finding your feet in that ,, then you can anyways prepare for CAT or GMAT and do MBA... ..


if i were you i would join TCS first and then think of any futher plans...(like mba or civils(which is insanely tough)!!!!

mis-quoted!!!

Somebody please post the link where I can get reasoning and Professional knowledge stuff...need 2 prepare ..

plz help....!!!

frnd if i were you then i would join tcs.. simply bcoz u no-one knows when will the results of ubi be announced + u r not sure whether u will be selected or not. and the joining in other banks would be not before may. so even if u r selected in others, still ur joining in tcs comes much earlier and there is no uncertainty either in TCS.

guys ek baat hume nhi bhoolni chahiye ki koi bhi bank standard se compramise nhi karega bhale toppers job chodke doosre bank kyu na chale jaye. process itna slow hai in logo ka ki mujhe lagta hai ki age cwe ke liye bhi vacancy abhi ki hi bach jayengi, kyunki har bank ko badiya talent hi chahiye aur koi bhi apna process change nhi karega.

true....lekin agar koi topper nahi hai,par banks ke eligibilty ke hisaab se CWE scores hai uske paas...he/she has knowledge....GD/PI mein smartly answers deta/deti hai...bank thinks he/she has good comm skills...and good leadership skills, to compromise kis baat ka??diff bet him and a topper would be that of the CWE scores only and thats it....aur sirf ek achha CWE score hi to benchmark nahi hai PO ke aptitude ka...aur bhi to bahut kuchh chahiye to become a PO...nahi??:cheers:

I have been reading stuff on this site for quite some time and this is for the first time I am posting something.

First of all, I would like to thank you all for initiating some great discussions here.

Actually I am facing a very serious dilemma these days. I have done my engineering(batch 2011) and got placed in TCS. But, sadly, I got my joining in march 2012. A long2 time. In the mean while I gave IBPS PO and got tws 175. I have my UBI interview coming up and also I have applied for syndicate,BOI,PNB.

Now my Q is whether I should join TCS or bank(considering I get selected). I don't when the banks will announce result and when would they give joining. So, in case I go and join TCS in the mean while, and I leave then I'll have to give them 50k, the bond amount...!!

I am going through quite a rough patch facing these hard ques. What should I go for??

P.S. I am 22 and I intend to pursue MBA, may be after an experience of 2 years or something.

Thanx a ton in advance my fellow aspirants.

am a BCA with some work ex and have knowledge about IT jobs and also have many MBA friends...as far as my idea is concerned,it should depend upon your aptitude...what exactly do you wanna do in future??if you join TCS,it would be hardcore IT involving planning,development,research,coding,testing,etc....everything revolving around software development...the team work behind it...the entire project development in a step-by-step manner...etc etc....

then come to MBA...if after 2 years of exp in a software co. like TCS,u join an MBA course,u will get to know the managerial aspects of a project...like marketing..selling....finances..HR...and many many more...but it would be mostly non-technical...u will hopefully get a good placement after the course,perhaps in an IT co if you choose so.....and you will have to deal with the managerial aspects of a software company...you may change your career path after MBA and get into a financial co and even a private bank....

..now come to banking....I guess its a completely diff career path.....if you get selected,you will have to say adieu to technical knowledge and will have to take care of a sarkari bank branch...u may be placed anywhere,even a rural branch and you will have to go there...if you chose to serve in a bank right now,you will get an experience but that will be entirely about banking...cust satisfaction...bank statistics...finance...loans...interests..cash..credits..deposits and withdrawals etc etc....and stuff like these...(senior Puys,pardon my lack of knowledge about the exact job profile and the banking terms,if u find any in my post ...).....if after 2 years,u leave it and join MBA,after completion,you will have to get back to a bank or a financial co. working as a manager.......

I have worked in an IT co...and know that technical job is addictive....for many people;they become "geeks",as they are called....and exactly opposite for many....for them,it is 100% boring...and they try to run away from the company as soon as possible ...the money (50000 Rs)is important and I cannot say what you need to do about it;in any case,if you get a job as a PO,u perhaps will be able to save that much and repay it to whomsoever you have taken it from in say,6-8 months but more importantly,a Bank PO will change the path of your career......from a software engineer (a technical job profile),you will become a Bank PO,which is a non-technical post...are you willing to do that? will you be happy? think about THAT area in which you have interest,and THAT job that excites you,and then take a decision(personal opinion).....ATB...byee!!!

Bhai I had a similar situation like yours....am 2011 passed out and was placed in TechMahindra and posted in bangalore on june1st 2011; But I din't join TechM and started preparing for bank exams. As a result of my hardwork got calls from SBI, Associates of SBI, (IBPS TWSS-177)UBI, Corporation bank,UCo bank Splist officers and I have even cracked CAT(91.24) and got calls from IIMIndore and NewIIMs!! :clap:

My friends joined TCS in NOV 2011 and based on their views I think TCS gives you the best training in India......and the experience in TCS will be benefitial to your MBA!!! I don't know about the training process in Banks ....but TCS traing and projects are of global standards....

All the best for ur future man:cheerio:

First of all congrats Gaurav for ur TWS ... Well, I think nationalized banks are far better than TCS... as I was working in very good MNC in B'lore but left my job & now m prep for banks & other govt sectors...
So, my advice is that u shud go with banking sector... as u have gud score.. u will definitely get selected.. & many banks have their own MBA cllges as well as they sponsor MBA... so u can do MBA also...

yes i think u r ryt, no1'll compromise on der standards. and dats the irony of the entire process, cz normally whenevr der is an advt of high vacancy the cut-off dips down but in this case evrythng seems to b in limbo..........................................

guys ek baat hume nhi bhoolni chahiye ki koi bhi bank standard se compramise nhi karega bhale toppers job chodke doosre bank kyu na chale jaye. process itna slow hai in logo ka ki mujhe lagta hai ki age cwe ke liye bhi vacancy abhi ki hi bach jayengi, kyunki har bank ko badiya talent hi chahiye aur koi bhi apna process change nhi karega.

Dear
waise bhi PNB ratio jayada hi rakhata hai.....
Aur is bar PNB will do its process after 5-6 banks.....(even 2-3 may give result before shortlist...)..

If they will give even 1:10,
it will finally become <1:6(40% to ho hi chuke honge)

Aur agar 1:6 denge to 166 bhi muskil se aayega...(see from UBI dat 1:3 for 2400+ post,but pnb only775).

Even with 1:10, I doubt that it might touch 160....

nahi...I was talking about banks like canara or syndi.....syndi has 885 general vacancies.....1:10 will be around 8850...canara has 1000 general...1:10 in it will be like 10000 people only from general...if 3700+ (as evident from union bank recruitment) general candidates have 166+ and 55% in grad,then yahan to 60% hai...usse aise hi bahut log kat jaayenge....dont you think...agar 1:10 hua to cut off 160 jaa sakta hai??...ya usse bhi neeche?? dekho hamen yahan kya stat.s chahiye???har ek mark par (like 166 par,165 par,164 par,163 par...)kitne log aise hain jo ki general hain aur jinka grad mein 60% hai??agar 166 se lekar jo bhi highest mark hai,issme sirf 3700-3800 hi aise hain,jinke grad mein 55% hain(200 aur le lo.....ye kuchh aise log hain jo shaayad Union bank mein apply nahi karna chahte thhe...like mera apna ek dost hai.. :)....so take the total to be around 4000 people),to tumhe nahi lagta ki 155-165 mein bhi 60% waale zyaada nahi honge??pata nahi....mere hisaab se to 1:6 ya 1:7 par bhi cut off neeche jaa sakta hai..kyunki 60% in grad waale log kam honge..in any case,banks ke HR bhi risk nahi lena chahenge...kyunki unhe bhi pata hai ki koi guarantee nahi hai ki aap jinko jinko bulaayenge,wo sab unke hi bank ko join karenge...issiliye wo bhi zyaada se zyaada candidates ko bulaayenge.....and again because of that,cutoff kam hone ke chances hain....ratio ek bada factor hoga...aur union-corp ka final list...the sooner it comes,the better... ATB......:)
