@lordirwin: i am so sory i read ur query the other way round. . .:-D my bad!!!!
there is this site pagalguy there a lot of bank po professionals keep sharing the work culture of their banks, . . plus many upsc toppers were working as po when thy cleard upsc with gud ranks. . . .
I thik u drunk desi today
@WIZ84: yeah i kept luking for ur reply in response to tht query. . . abt revealing our upsc preparation status. . to the board. . . so wat would be the appropriate reply when thy questn abt preparation status. .
i had this 1 more doubt. . . i thought of giving this sbi clerk interview for experience sake. .
thy hv asked for character certificate frm college. . and a gazatted officer. . .
“wiz” i wantd to ask tht did u hv to submit character certificate at the time of ‘sbi po interview’
becoz if it is so then i wil keep it ready ., . for ibps po interview. . . .
@damini : i just accidentally saw ur msg n replying …don know why my detailed reply @damini n @sur88 has not yet been published…in case u hv any more queries mail me at indefatigable.vijay@gmail.com othrwise there is probability tht i miss any other msgs as well coz i rarely check comments….one more thing ,i will b more available after Mains…so kindly bear the wait…
now lets come to ur question….
yes this is my personal experience n i literally screwed last year by IBPS panel in awarding interview marks…though my interview went very fine,around 30-35 minutes…range of questions were asked n all were very appreciative but still they flunk me in interview by one marks.
they asked me wht i am doing after resigning from my job n i answered foolishly “preparing for civil services” , thn thy asked my last years mains dates(2-8 dec) my optional(pub ad) n thn one wise guy even asked me some theories (scientific management n job loading,tht moron must hv heard these words in some banking training session) n i fall in their trap ,i answered like i am writing a mains answr….so the moral is don go too much in details of ur prep ,simply say along with other exams i am giving civil services as well..
like this year in my SBI interview i didn mention the word ‘UPSC’ only mentioned ‘govt jobs’…..so be calculative….n like mrunal says prove ur worth for the banking job n loads of opportunity in banking sector(though actually there r only few)…
ATB…prepare well
also regarding ur character certificate clarification….IBPS ask for semester wise/year wise marksheet n final degree n as these documents will only be provided after character clearance from collage authorities(in my case Delhi University) so i think any specific document wont be required….but better be safe,arrange it if u cn have it easily….n definitely gv sbi assistant interview….will gv depth to ur answering skills….again ATB
@WIZ84: i have all the marksheets and documents…. but i did my degree from delhi and i am currently residing in mumbai…. and i remember submitting the school character certificate in collage… but we never received any hard copy from collage like we did in school… and sbi assistants exam have asked for hard copy (2 copies)… but i will arrange it.. its not possible to go back to collage and arrange it now… i just wanted to know that are they asking for them in po interviews …or is it only in assistant…. but i will arrange it…:)
thanks for answering my query…:)
@damini: answered ur disclosing of ”UPSC prep to interview board” query in detail as well….currently its awaiting moderation from @Mods…do check it…hope will answer ur question
@wiz84: i read ur detailed reply. . . thanks ‘wiz’ . . . all the best for ur mains exam. . .:-)
guys when would ibps activate the link to download the application form…??
I am a general candidate from Uttarakhand, got 131 in RRB scale 1 and also cleared PO. what are the chances in rrb? which one is better to go for?
Hello I got 150 marks in ibps rrb office assistant from haryana gen category is there any chances for interview call plz reply me someone I am waiting
what is cut off of obc
friends, any calculation for minimum marks required in general category in written exam with best or optimum interview performance ?
Last year ibps PO 3 Gen cat written cut off 61 : int + written cut off : 42.20
Reverse calculation : best performance in interview = 60/100 i.e. 12marks then written core will be 42.20-12=32.20
then written marks will be (32.20*1.2)*2=77.28 and which is much more than 61 cut off of general catagory.
this exercise is just for those who are at cut off level so they can prepared for other exam without much depending upon this.
I dont have computer certificate..but i did have Information technology in 12th class

My Interview Experience from Last Year
Written Score: 85/200 Interview 72/100
1. Some Unnecessary Information
I reached the venue 1 hour before the scheduled time to avoid any problem. The entry started around 12:30 PM. I wore a formal shirt, formal pant and a blazer but no tie because the tie was not mathcing my attire…(but I think I should have wore one because most of the interviewees were dressed in suit and tie) but many were in Jeans,Shirt and simple sweater too. When I entered the place there I saw printouts on the walls on which instructions on how to arrange the docs were provided. We all were then asked to wait in one hall before doc verification. In the hall there was another list in which roll no. wise we were segregated in various panels. I was in panel 4.
In the waiting hall, the atmosphere was intense, many were discussing gk and current affairs among them, many were lost in the day’s newspaper, and like the people outside written exam hall, many were speculating the cutoff and exact firgure how many have been selected and what written score is minimum required to finally get in..(God save me from such geniuses). Anyways, I just did nothing and sat there quietly waiting for my turn.
2. Document Verification
After waiting for around 50-55 minutes my turn for document verification came. There were 2 people one checked the xerox and the other checked my originals. As one can clearly observe, they were just checking my Grad date as mentioned on my degree, my marks percentage (they calculated themselves), just took a vague look at my character certificate, besides that they checked Caste certificate (especially applicable and validity date)…they were a bit strictier with OBC people and any NOC from employer if applicable. They were very serious with the Caste Certificate and they even rejected more than half of the people appearing from OBC category regarding their certificate. I actually dont know what was the issue because I belong to General Category and not OBC. And there was no chance given for undertaking etc, if you dont have some docs, you have to get them within interview hrs (that were 1:30-4:45) that’s all.
After my documents were verified, I was asked to wait for my turn to go into the interview room.
3. Interview
I didnt have to wait for long as I was the fourth person in the queue so my turn came early. I then entered a room where there was a big table in front around which four old-age (nearly 50-55 yrs of age) persons were sitting. There was one small chair kept in front of them on which the mujrim(Candidate) was going to sit. From my left there was one smiling sardar, one mixed expression person,one fierce looking man in the middle and then extremely quite person on the right. The extreme right person didnt even answer my Good Morning too,
They asked my name, and started looking at my documents Xerox…which were collected during my verification stage.They allowed me to sit meanwhile. Now there was extreme silence in the room for around 8 minutes which made me a bit confused as nobody was asking me anything nor were discussing among themselves…they were just looking at my graduation, X, XII marksheets.
For sharing the questions and my answer, I am denoting the interviewers as
I. 1st Interviewer (Sardar)
II. 2nd Interviewer (Mixed Expression one)
III. 3rd Interviewer (Angry Man)
IV. I dont need to denote him by anuyhting as he spoke nothing.
II. “From which college you have done your BTech?”
A. I told themII. “Ok so you have taken any loan for your studies?”
A. I told them as I have taken it from one.
And he continued to ask me about my family background my educational background…class X XII, my hobbies but he didnt ask me the obvious questions like “Why banking after BTech,Tell us about yourself, What will you do after joining bank,etc (Ratta maarna bekaar ho gaya :) )
Now he passed on to III interviewer…meanwhile I was encouraging me by saying “good”and “Okay” to every answer I said.
III. “So Prashant, what have you prepared for today?”A. I got a bit nervous because I read many things but at that time choosing the right thing was important because I knew the interview was going to go in that direction only, after thinking for 30 seconds I said “Rural banking”
III. “Rural Banking, hah, what in rural banking? How will govt provide Rural Banking, what will be the benefit?”A. I tried to give the mugged up bookish answer…”Sir Financial Inclusion, No-Frills A/C and…”
III. He stopped me in the middle…”What is the benefit of No-Frills A/C? I think thats useless coz zero balance account has no profit for a bank? Any other concept in rural banking?A. As he stopped me in middle, I became a bit nervous and now I decided not to answer bookish but by common sense. “So I said Sir, leaving No-Frills A/C we have the concept of BCs, financing SHGs and….”
III. Again stopped me in the middle…”What is BC?”
A. Banking Correspondent
III. “What he does?”A. He opens A/C in villages, works on behalf of banks there.
III. “Who can be BC then?”
A. “Sir a person from village appointed by a bank. A BC can be an NGO too.”
III. “Anyone from village? He could easily run by taking money from bank then how is he a reliable Banking Person in the village?”
A. “Sir…He is appointed by bank by taking adequate measures and….”(Totally Nervous)
Before I could say anything II interrupted and said, “the boy is also saying NGO na…”
III. “NGO? How could an NGO reach a distant village? It would be inconvenient and why will they go? I think that too is useless”
A.This time I became a bit angry as he was counter questioning my every answer,,,I said “Sir, It could be near to some village or it may go anywhere as they are Non-Profit Organizations dedicated to do a particular task only so it is not a different work for an NGO. Without stopping a bit I counted names of some NGOs who were doing some or the other work from far flung areas..”
I and II nodded…IV did nothing
III. “You mentioned SHG…what’s that?”A. Self Help Group. and I described their work a bit.
III. Who would you finance in SHG? any one from the group?A. No…& i described this “No,”
III.Who controls these rural provisions in banking?A. Sir, NABARD
III, Full form?A. ToldIII. Ok, You read today’s newspaper?A. Yes.
III. Anything special today?A. …However I narrated some news.
III. Anything related to Economics?
A. Told
III. Bankers are going to do something if one issue is not resolved…what is this issue and what are they going to do?
A. “Sir, they are awaiting their wage revision”
III. Since when it is due?
A. said,..”Sir, not confirm…June 2013?
Now the Sardar Sir Spoke “No, Its Nov 2012” “OK”. I said.
III. “What are they going to do then?”A, “Sir strike for 2 days”
III. “When?”A, Told the dates…(thanks to my lovely banker cousins).
III. “What do you feel about strikes, are they good?”
A. Sir on whose perspective, as a PO or as a customer?
III. “Tell your general opinion”A, “Sir its good.”
III. “Oh, why?”A, “Sir if Govt doesnt listen we have to do something to explain our problems to them”
Sardarji smiled and said “Haa bhai ….Sarkaar sunti nahi to karna padta hai…”
.
III. So If you become PO one day, you will take part in strike?A, “Definitely Sir”,…II and I laughed a bit.
I, II and III. “Oh…nice then , I think we are done.”
Me. “OK. Thanks Sir”
Now I came out of the room and felt much relaxed.
My Review of the interview: After giving the interview, I felt my interview was totally rubbish because I was interrupted every time, the interviewer (III) never looked satisfied and the questions were totally different from what I expected. Anyways after spending 2 months in negativity I was shocked to see that my marks were much higher than from many of my friends in the interview (72/100). So I came to the conclusion that besides mugged up answer we should intelligently mould the answers according to the situation but knowledge should be must…guesswork will ultimately lead to failure here.
Anyways, all of the above was my experience with IBPS and my review. It may not look an ideal interview or an ideal situation for many but that is what I experienced.
Thank you for reading and All the best for your respective interviews this year. Hope the interview goes on the expected lines only.

Friends I have qualified for IBPS PO/MT interview.But I dont have the application form with me. Will it be a problem during interview. I dont see the logic for removing the link so soon,is it so resource consuming for the website??
Anyway will the link be reactivated again??
If no,will they excuse us??
even i have committed the same mistake by not downloading the application form…but they may re-activate it again..
When the admit card/ call letter for interviews are uploaded they reactivate the link to reprint the application form. Please don’t worry. Prepare for your interview.
