State Bank of India Planning To Fill 20000 Vacancies Soon
Ask about jobs in public sector banks and State bank of India will be the most favored organization to work among young people.It is proven on many occasions when lacs of fresh graduates apply for sbi recruitments every year.The selection process for PO & clerk cadre has undergone massive changes with IBPS conducting a common written exam.But SBI still remains the top choice for majority.
State bank group along with its 5 associates have a combined presence of 16,000 branches across the nation making it the no.1 bank in terms of size.
A recent article in businessline will provide answers to all those asking ‘What are the upcoming SBI vacancies’
20,000 jobs in SBI for grabs
Mr. A.Krishna Kumar, Managing director says,
“SBI is looking to recruit 19000 clerks & 1000 probationary officers within the next one year”
The bank already has staff strength of 2.15 lac employees which is 7400 lower than the previous FY. As of June, the entire workforce numbers stand as below:
- Officers – 80,404
- Clerks - 95,018
The total staff in SBI over the years are shown by way of chart
Manpower for new branches
What is pushing the state bank group to increase its headcount at an such an aggressive pace? Following are the reasons
Retirements:This is one of the main issues faced by all govt. owned banks & state bank of India is no exception.Around 80,000 current employees will be retiring in next 5 years, says the MD.
Expansions: As on June 2012, SBI has 14127 branches. To maintain its dominant position, the banking major is to add 1200 branches (with atleast 700 in urban/metro areas) this year & new recruits will be needed for these locations.
Notification soon
When will be the next sbi clerk recruitment? could be your next question & we can hear you asking it.
| The interview process for 9500 clerks & stenographers are currently underway. Once its completed, the process for PO recruitments shall begin, remarks SBI`s group executive of national banking |
Some candidates are of the view that the bank has increased the no. of vacancies for the ongoing recruitment itself but we were not able to confirm it with any officials.
So If additional posts are not created in the above exercise, official notice for new SBI clerk jobs can be expected in Jan/ February 2013
11000 clerks in 2009!
State bank of India has been the single largest job creator in this sector for past few years.The response for their hirings is itself enough to understand the dreams of aspirants.
In 2009, an announcement for SBI recruitment of 11000 clerks was made. Do you know how many people expressed interest?
Nearly 36 lakh applications were received for written exams that were held for just 11000 posts. (see over 30 lakhs want job in SBI)
Ready?
With demand for bank jobs especially in public sector on the rise, any SBI clerk recruitments in 2012 -2013 will only see more no. of registrations than previous years.
So are you ready for the competition?
Top 8 Questions You Should Prepare For Bank Interviews
Common banking test may be a one time exercise but the selection gets over only after each bank completes its interview proceedings.So candidates have to prepare for every bank interview just like preparing for exams earlier.It is not always easy to read the minds of panelists.
Due to this personal interview sessions always tend to create panic among young people.But by being bold & ready to encounter any type of question with confidence, it is possible to keep fear at bay.
Procedure & Marks
From the applications received, candidates will be shortlisted for interview stage based on their CWE scores and no. of vacancies.
It shall be conducted for 100 or 50 marks & the minimum marks to qualify for final selection shall be 40-50%. But for you to compete with others, securing the max. score is important, which can be attained by proper preparations.
What to Prepare
Although, predicting exact questions is not possible, there are certain topics that are sureto be touched by the panelists during an interview for bank posts.
1. Personal details
This will be the first section wherein you are asked about your family, education etc., Normally the question is like ‘Tell us about yourself’.
Start with a short introduction about family background & move on to highlight your skills & achievements or college projects. (checkout how to answer tell me about yourself)
|
2. Study your resume/ biodata
The biodata or resume carries great importance as its the official document about you. As bulk of the questions would revolve around the data you provide, pay attention while filling the form given at the interview venue.
Get familiar with what you have written so as to avoid giving wrong answers.
3. Banking knowledge
Applying for a bank job & don't know what is a term loan?The chances of you making it to the final list would only get distant.There are roughly about 100-130 regularly used words in banking & financial sector.
There is no alternative apart from memorizing those terminologies but it isn't that hard since banking awareness is a section of the common bank exam.
Rather than relying only on websites,you can also purchase some books that provides detailed explanations.
|
4. Latest news
‘What is the current repo rate’, ‘Who is the chief of Asian development bank’ – answers
to these would be known only if you read newspapers everyday.
to these would be known only if you read newspapers everyday.
Not limited only to economy, you could also encounterquestions about national events such as the recent satellite launch, location of asia`s largest solar parketc.,
G.K books may help for historical data but newspapers & news channels are your only source for latest happenings.
5. Know your state
Public banks are now demanding applicants for clerical posts to posses proficiency in local language of the state.
In addition to testing your language skills, expect queries on the no. of districts in your state, names of ministers,governor or about a place of importance.
These questions need not necessarily test your knowledge but enables the interviewer to deduce your communication skills.
|
6. Know about the organization
Few questions on history, performance, awards or chairman/MD of the bank could be asked to gauge your level of preparation & interest in taking up the job.
Visit the bank`s website, look for a section ‘About us’ under which all the info ranging from mission, vision to previous year`s financial results will be available.
7. Know yourself
Now comes the real part, where you need to talk more.What could you be questioned on?
Answering these can get tough if you have not though about this in advance.
Responses like ‘My biggest strength is working hard’ & ‘Short temper is my weakness’ will only send wrong signals to the interviewing panel.Don't sound too vague or object of ridicule.
While officer post requires managerial & team building skills, clerical employees are required to have good customer handling capabilities.
Understand the job profile & frame answers that could bring these qualities to the fore.
|
8. Why bank job?
Are you applying for entry level posts in banks with BE/MBA/MCA degrees? If yes, either of the following questions could be heading your way
- Why are you applying for banks with technical degree
- Are`nt you overqualified for PO/ clerk position
The best answer here shall be the real reason which pushed you to write CWE & apply for bank jobs.Try to come up with a reply that would convince the panel.
Checkout our previous post - How to answer why you chose bank jobs to read on what to say in detail.
These are the 8 sure shot questions that you need to prepare for cracking the next bank interview!!

IBPS PO 2012 Results in October & Common Interviews to Start
‘Multiple selections’
- could be the one thing that makes numerous young people turn red in anger
against banks & top scorers of common written exams in the ongoing
recruitments for bank jobs.What else could be their reaction to see the same
candidates being shortlisted in all banks? This could well be a thing of past
as common interviews for
bank jobs are
set to be introduced.
The
issue of repeat selections has been haunting many since the start
of interview process for PO vacancies & has been widely criticized.
Though
banks were also not able to get the employees they wanted, nothing much could
be done as policy decisions had to be finalized at the top level in public
sector enterprises.The latest developments appeared in ET recently
Announcement
soon
The
finance ministry in July 2012 was in consultations with PSU banks regarding
this methodology which seemed to have attained shape.(See Govt steps in with an idea)
The
procedure for common interviews has reached final stages & could well beimplemented this year itself as senior officials of IBPS &
PSB`s have agreed to the proposal, says the newspaper report
IBPS
PO results in October
As
per the daily, over 7.5
lakh candidates sat for the PO examination & their results shall be out before October 10th.
Though
we couldn’t confirm the attendance with the institute, it is possible for such
a turnout comparing last year that saw 10.4
lakh appear.
If
all fall in place, qualifiers of IBPS CWE held on June 17th 2012 could be the 1stbatch
to go through these common interviews.
In
such a case, they need not appear before a panel of each bank but have to enter
the interviewing hall just once similar to single test for all bank jobs.
Can
common interviews solve selection issues?
Mr.Venky
Prasad Reddy, trainer at a Hyderabad based competitive exam coaching academy
believes the new initiative would be very beneficial for bank job aspirants.
“With
already a common written exam for clerk and officer posts in place, common interviews will make bank
recruitments simpler, save time & most importantly minimize multiple
selections.
Candidates
also need not prepare throughout the year like in earlier cases but
would get only once chance to prove themselves. In case of
missing it, they shall have to wait
for the next attempt after 6 months.
But I
still have the following questions in mind because BSRB(banking services recruitment
board) was abolished
on many of these grounds,
- Will
candidates be allowed to choose the bank they wish to join?
- Will
banks be able to choose their desired candidate?
- How
many choices will a qualifier be provided?
- Will
scorecard be seized by the bank on appointment?
- Is
there any possibility of waiting lists/ 2nd lists in this process?
These
areas should be taken into account by the authorities while preparing the
notification & explained clearly upfront to avoid last minute procedural
hiccups.
As
competition among students & vacancies in banks swell at higher rate - we have to get it right this time”,
he concluded.
