hello friend as far as i know they do not allow in interview if u don't possess the req cert during verification. but u have the option of giving the gen option during written test u will b considered for gen. but if u dont have it during interview ur candidature will be cancelled.I've experienced this. about the cert issued in july confirm it from the HR.

well i 'll let u know my 1st interview experience with federal bank in regional office in banagalore:- on 19th may

i was little bit excited and little bit tensed but as i was confident enough that i'll manage the stress ..i did that
my interview was taken by deputy GM and Gm
-->they both asked me the same queston first about my name ......i expertly answered them back honestly:p
-->than the question was about my job location preference ....i answered it promptly...in a humorous way
-->than there was question ...what u know about federal bank other than website stuff ....honestly i didn't know much but somehow i answered them ;)
-->than they asked me have u visited any of the branches ??....luckily i visited once when i have to fill the fees for form he he he he
-->than they asked me how u'r MBA(finance) can contribute to our bank...........i answered them by giving example of my TATA capital internship
-->than they asked me in which area u want to work with in our bank i answered them..........
-->than they said have got any other offer i told them honestly yes and they asked me than comparitive questions regarding BNP paribas good bank u acn go abroad and related things .....i answered them satisfactorily

but the other guy sitting beside GM was frm face i thought was not much satisfied with me ...he said u'r theoretical knowledge is ok but how practicality can be bought so ...i answered them back again with my releveant experience if internship and project work ...,.they seemed satisfied atlast wished me good luck.....

well guys note this point :-
just be honest and smart to answer
give relevnt examples and
last but not the least be updated and show them the learning attitude :w00t:
so just be cool and focussed for any interview u'll crack it easily

I don't think anyone's against recruiting engineers...the no. of engineers applying for these psu jobs is a lot..so they cant afford to not recruit them.
n u r saying that wtever we learned during our grad is of least importance, well thats not true either. i hav no experience, but am an economics graduate from du.. n trust me when it comes to grilling in interviews i do hav to suffer a lot...
n the most imp thing that i have to ask right nw is when wud allahabad bank's result will be declared
?

Same questions in every interview but what's d sure shot answer for dese:

Q.1 Why do u want 2 join banks ?( u can add as u r highly qualified n case of clerical interview)

Q.2 R u READY 2 work in rural areas?
Ans. YES I'm Just DYING for getting dis opportunity

Q.3 How vl u handle customers in rural areas?

plz ans ASAP sure shot answers

when will sbi clerk interview result will come

i guess you wont stop arguing... u will find one or the other issues to talk about to make yourself happy by thinking that u are winning... though whatever you said are totally correct... but if you come down to ranking... the latest survey tells a different story nowdays.... i am feeling sick of this argument because it is pointless now, it has lost its relevance... if you find out anything good to take back home then please continue.... am done with your remarks anyway.... and Hell Yeah I am not only proud of my college, i boast of this college, because of its outstanding performance since the last decade!!! cheerio:cheerio:!!!!

amlan0501 Says

and one more thing @ceoglad, there is nothing called "a top NIT"..... each and every NIT is a class on its own.... and each of them are of national importance....

correct, i was just talking in terms of ranking given by India today, i very well know all institute spread knowledge, and top NIT may not be appropriate term, but if rankings are to be believed my institute becomes the most preferred destination, both for students and Recruiters btw K V Kamath comes from my college!!!
i say it with immense pride! ,we all know that your institute also makes u proud , lets not talk which NIT is top, though i prefer to call my college the top, you may also do the same friend! after all we should be proud what our insti gives us!


P.S : mere college ne mujhe do waqt ki roti di hain, its the best institute in the world for me! any day!

amlan0501 Says

... whereas the reality is, in the banking world... knowledge is gained through practical/hands on experience. whatever we learnt in our graduation days are of least importance and that applies to people from all streams. ...

exactly

sry for spam

and one more thing @ceoglad, there is nothing called "a top NIT"..... each and every NIT is a class on its own.... and each of them are of national importance....

i am an engineer, and i would i have a contrary opinion to this, i would like to tell you that no degree is superior that it would give anyone "COMPLEX" as u term it, and more over if a degree could give so much "complex" to others then why would i chase a career in banking rather i would stay in my field and give people "complex" , we all know,deep in our hearts what we are, may be i have degree which says i'm a computer engineer, but passion may be I banking, or banking, dude degree defines nothing about man, it is too narrow minded to say that it gives them complex , at the end of the day degree is on the paper , its your aspiration ,your mettle , your capability that matters.. look at myself 10 years down the line i would definitely not say " look i'm an engineer from top NIT" so i can give complex! wrong i would think how should increase my knowledge base to become the CEO of this company..

P.S : i have graduated from a top NIT worked with an MNC, and presently into my MBA , all that i realize is knowledge that these commerce guy, arts guy, or medico guy posses is amazing and complex in itself also realize that knowledge at the end of the day is knowledge, be it knowledge about sewing a cloth or designing a plane or a computer program or excavating a fossil..if you are go deep into particular field no degree or certificate matters... i'm a strong supporter of knowledge assimilation and i detest any sort of disparity in judging any sort of knowledge.


sorry for spamming here but i really felt that our predisposition to certain types of knowledge is unjustifiably brutal and unacceptable

Tell this to those who are against recruiting engineers in PSU jobs.... PSU job exams are open competition where no specific subject is mentioned... and i never belittled anybody's qualification... whatever i have said, was only to potray what other people harbours for us engineers in a competition... and the COMPLEX factor, that was mentioned to me by an AGM of a PSU bank (which i dont want to name in public)... even I am a 2010 Graduate from NIT Durgapur, working at Infosys Bhubaneshwar, and one more thing, there is nothing called "a top NIT"..... each and every NIT is a class on its own.... and each of them are of national importance..... perhaps You didn't notice what i actually feel about candidates from other streams... i have also said in the post (quoting exactly what i had written) "knowledge is gained through practical/hands on experience. whatever we learnt in our graduation days are of least importance and that applies to people from all streams".... i respect them whole heartedly... its really sad that how badly you have misquoted mine... i would suggest you to go through that post and think twice before you comment... have i been incorrect/wrong then i would have been booed and received more than three groans...

amlan0501 Says

look dude!!! they are the public with commerce background... whereas we all are having engg. background... everyone knows after what kind of competition we go through to make it to the engg. phase.. since we stood out in a competition, we are labelled as the creams of the student's community in India (by the way, i mean no offence to those who have graduated in streams other than engg. or medical, some of the brightest student in those stream are good enough to give us a run for our money and outshine us)... so to score better than average is the trend seen amongst the engg grads or medical grads in PSU jobs exams. so when we face interview where the panel consists of personnel having commerce or other background, there is bound for some friction to happen. no matter how well do you answer, they will try to show you that those interviewers are the bosses of ours over there. they will prove themselves that they knows more than us. they will show you that we engineers are not fit for them, and commerce students will perform better... whereas the reality is, in the banking world... knowledge is gained through practical/hands on experience. whatever we learnt in our graduation days are of least importance and that applies to people from all streams. so my advice is, just ignore these kinds of remarks, and in future if u do come across this kind of comments, tell yourself that ur degree has given them a complex (then again, i mean no ofence, candidates from other background should rate themselves that they knows more than us in this industry).... u can check out the thread no. 78 of this discussion, i have given the details of whatever interview i faced... and don't lose heart, this is not the end of the road...

i am an engineer, and i would i have a contrary opinion to this, i would like to tell you that no degree is superior that it would give anyone "COMPLEX" as u term it, and more over if a degree could give so much "complex" to others then why would i chase a career in banking rather i would stay in my field and give people "complex" , we all know,deep in our hearts what we are, may be i have degree which says i'm a computer engineer, but passion may be I banking, or banking, dude degree defines nothing about man, it is too narrow minded to say that it gives them complex , at the end of the day degree is on the paper , its your aspiration ,your mettle , your capability that matters.. look at myself 10 years down the line i would definitely not say " look i'm an engineer from top NIT" so i can give complex! wrong i would think how should increase my knowledge base to become the CEO of this company..

look dude!!! they are the public with commerce background... whereas we all are having engg. background... everyone knows after what kind of competition we go through to make it to the engg. phase.. since we stood out in a competition, we are labelled as the creams of the student's community in India (by the way, i mean no offence to those who have graduated in streams other than engg. or medical, some of the brightest student in those stream are good enough to give us a run for our money and outshine us)... so to score better than average is the trend seen amongst the engg grads or medical grads in PSU jobs exams. so when we face interview where the panel consists of personnel having commerce or other background, there is bound for some friction to happen. no matter how well do you answer, they will try to show you that those interviewers are the bosses of ours over there. they will prove themselves that they knows more than us. they will show you that we engineers are not fit for them, and commerce students will perform better... whereas the reality is, in the banking world... knowledge is gained through practical/hands on experience. whatever we learnt in our graduation days are of least importance and that applies to people from all streams. so my advice is, just ignore these kinds of remarks, and in future if u do come across this kind of comments, tell yourself that ur degree has given them a complex (then again, i mean no ofence, candidates from other background should rate themselves that they knows more than us in this industry).... u can check out the thread no. 78 of this discussion, i have given the details of whatever interview i faced... and dont lose heart, this is not the end of the road...

p1...ur dad is in bank .u could have known about banking
me..sir i was good in maths and science and i didn't had awareness and wisdom to know what other option there are to make a good carrer so...being a good maths and science student

p1..how can u be benfecial as a po
me...sir in banking we accept deposit at 8% and give loans at 12 % and it can be done by common sense and i don't think we need any rocket science kind a knowledge....( he asked deposit at ?? i said 8%.....i hope he was able to understand what i meant ..not cut my marks on this point)
and i am from science backgroung so i have very good analytical skills(nodded his head; increased my confidence) and i think i will be able to perform brightly, and if a person has interest in a job he can perform much better than the person who has good marks in academic but does not have interest in this job(nodded his head...a valid point)

p2..what is greek default

sir ..greek took sovereign loan and she was not able to pay it and it defaulted ..sovereign debt is 90 billion$(hayila wrong source se info li thi..mehenga pad gaya)

p2..no 90 billion in not the right figure
me..may be my source is not right

p2...its 340 billion $..twice its gdp

p2..what is lehman brothers
ans...sir it was investment bank it got bankrupt ..its cdo...failed and insurance that they had for cdo from aig ...as AIG also failed and didn't got there money and got bankrupt

p2....cdo???...cdo means

p2..what about goldman sachs
me..sir i didn't go bankrupt

p2..i didn't got but what are they..
me...sir its also a investment bank

p2..what other govt institutions failed??
me..i don't know other institution but citi , AIG, lehman failed

p2...general motors also failed
me...yes sir general motors also failed they got stimulus from govt

p2...why citi didn't fail
me..sir b coz it was able to get stimulus from US govt and did lobbying

p2..citi got divided after recession
me..yes sir into citi corp and citi bank

p2...citi corp for what
me...sir riskier buisness

p2 yes...(smiled..khush ho gaye answer sunke)...and said citi bank for general banking


p2..to p3 to p1 kuch poochna hai
ok ok......sir nodd karke jaane ka signal kar diya

( what that's it i can't let my interview finish like that..........as ashish said

....win or loose i ve promised my self to play like a champion....winning or lossing is irrelevant......what matter is i give my 100%)

(as i was getting positive vibes from them so i started the conversation again)

sir citi bank failed due to sub prime loans b coz they were charging higher interest loans

p2..sub prime is there its always been..its also in india..(what india mein kab se aayagi.).. we give loans to farmers

me..sir but we give subsidised loans

p2...if u 'll will look the perspective that farmers don't repay loans...and all subsidized loans become npa

me...ok sir yes....( vaah kya point maara sir ne)..sir our policies are so wrong that 50k crore we have oil subsidy and 70k crore we have food subsidy..then we compenseate oil companies..its like we are taking money from one pocket and depositing in another

then i continued sir sub prime led to real state bubble than ppl in US didn't had money so they gave there home to banks but bubble burst down and banks were not able to recover there money

p2...(smiling enjoying the conversation) so what is the moral of the story
(sardarji also started smiling)
me...sir we should not be greedy..lol(sardarji was smiling and enjoying..)

ok thanx

Me: Sir isme darne ki kaya baat hai aur waise bhi sare dharam to ek hi jaise hain, Sab hi dharam to us parmeshwar tak pahonchne ka rasta dikhate hain.
P2: Phir bhi ek bar apke Pitaji kuch na balen par apki Maa to aapko ghar se nikal deti, Hum to apko bina baat ke hi road pe le aate. (Laughing loudly accompained by both). Me: Smiled.
P2: Aaacha aap kahan se hain?
Me: Told about my birth place and the place where I am settled now.
P1: Us jagah se to bahut daar lagta hai. Took the name of a notorious criminal (don) who hails from the same district. Apne suna hoga.
Me: Hanji sir wo usi district se hai. Lekin usi jagah se hame desh ke President bhi hain. Dharti to ek hi hota hai par uspe aam ka auer babbol dono ke ped ugte hain, ab ye to mali ke uppar hai ki uski nazar kis ped pe parti hai.

Me: Sir kaam karne ke liye Umar koi criteria nahi hoti, Agar aadmi me kaam karne ka passion ho aur sath me determination ho to wo kabhi bhi kaam kar sakta hai. Gave the example of Anna Hazare and E Sridharan(Metro Man).
P2: Antim sawal , aako kaay lagata hai ki ek basic qualification ke sath kaam kar ke safalta paye ja sakti hai.
Me: Yes sir, lekin apke ander excel karne ki gehri pratibadhta aur lagan honi chahiye.
P2: Its over from our end.
Me: Thank you all for your valuable time. It was so nice talking to all of you. Have a great day Ahead. Bye. (Smiles on face of everyone)

Attendance was good (Only 4-5 candidates were absent). Process of verification is fine and fast. Self attestation is fine sufficient. Average interview timing for candidates was 5 minutes.

My name was called I went out with others and then the panel members came out for a tea break - They thought the Interview is Over and suddenly saw me waiting outside !

They wanted to go for tea and asked me to join them - I said I will wait here , but they refused and said " It's not fair , plz have ur refreshment , we can't go for tea if U don't , coz this is not the right thing " . The Bank's official said to plz accompany them to the canteen ... I went there..

We sat at a table and discussions started - Interviewers had Pakora & tea. They offered me Pakora , sandwich , Biscuit & Coffee ...

A sort of discussion / chatting started ... we discussed about cricket , politics , hobbies etc...

Suddenly the official said " Bas kijiye sir , aap ko Interview kya Idhar hi khatam kar dalenge , baccha tensed ho rahe hain " . The Interviewer asked me if I was feeling tensed , I replied no and they carried on....

There was a giant monitor & they seemed in a mood for enjoyment - They asked me about my fav tv serial , channel etc....

P2 : Great yaar !! U must have learnt something useful , tell me the lesson U got working for a month , which U won't find in any book....

Me : Took some time & replied - Sir we as students , having practical knowledge use a lot of Jargons or relate it to the book , but the Managers / Employees there does the same work and hates technical jargons.. They r well equipped with innovative ideas , we termed Motivation , they did the same thing but called it Incentives for hackwork !!! They possess very practical knowledge and I felt we r a bit bookish in nature and we try to concentrate on what we learnt , whereas they concentrate on Practical solution to Problems.....

All : Absolutely correct , I feel the same , U striked the right chord ! Kept smiling and said good reply .....

P2 : OK ur last question - Customers are our unpaid salesman , how do u justify the statement ?

They r well equipped with innovative ideas , we termed Motivation , they did the same thing but called it Incentives for hackwork !!! They possess very practical knowledge and I felt we r a bit bookish in nature and we try to concentrate on what we learnt , whereas they concentrate on Practical solution to Problems.....

Reached the EZO ( Eastern Zonal Office - As the Officials popularly call it ) sharp at 12:45 and we were asked to wait in Executive Car Parking Lot... Thereafter we went for Doc verification and after that Interview.

( SBI Clerk ) , the Bank's Official in her late 20's seemed very very co-operative and even offered us Lunch & Tea..

My name was called I went out with others and then the panel members came out for a tea break - They thought the Interview is Over and suddenly saw me waiting outside !

They wanted to go for tea and asked me to join them - I said I will wait here , but they refused and said " It's not fair , plz have ur refreshment , we can't go for tea if U don't , coz this is not the right thing " . The Bank's official said to plz accompany them to the canteen ... I went there..

We sat at a table and discussions started - Interviewers had Pakora & tea. They offered me Pakora , sandwich , Biscuit & Coffee ...

A sort of discussion / chatting started ... we discussed about cricket , politics , hobbies etc...

Suddenly the official said " Bas kijiye sir , aap ko Interview kya Idhar hi khatam kar dalenge , baccha tensed ho rahe hain " . The Interviewer asked me if I was feeling tensed , I replied no and they carried on....

(contd. from previous post..)
My 3rd interview was with Allahabad bank PO on 6th of june 2011, in Kolkata. In the panel there were three male judges and one female one. In the center the male judge was the GM or the AGM of the bank, thats what i was told before. They had absolutely no expression on their faces. I greeted them and thanked them for offering me the seat.


Sir3: the effect that the WTO is having on the biodiversity of the planet, according to you, is it good or bad?

Me: WTO, (and i was telling myself, WTF!!!!:sneaky:), you mean World Trade Organization??

Sir3: yes.

Me: WTO is totally different from the issues regarding the subject of life sciences. You must be talking about the various norms set by the WTO for trading amongst the nations and the conditions for carbon emissions involved in the process by the developing countries.

Sir3: may be

Sanitary and phyto sanitary agreement of WTO has the GM food clause in it..which says that (in summary and not actually ) some countries have different standards for using the GM foods, say India may not want the GM corn here.. as we feel it harms people according to the standards set by us..while UK and US standards for GM foods may be lower and hence GM corn may pass the test and be available for circulation there..now if Japan manufactures this GM corn and wants to export it to India and UK OR US then its not possible..it cannot send it to India as our standards are higher and more like defensive to GM foods.. in such cases the Japan cannot go and Complain WTO saying see we had treaty that we will supply corn and now India is not taking the food manufactured by us..so sue them! countries can have their own measure on what people consume can have overriding effect on the WTO agreement to uphold the sovereignty of the state. and it cannot be challenged"
they are trying to harmonize this system where there is one world standard and it may impact the production of foods as they already know what standards is to be followed... so it can impact the food production once the system gets harmonized..
