Hello friends. Below is my detailed Interview experience.

Panel : I

Document Verification : The first stage is document verification stage. Please carry all your documents including extra-curricular activities certificates original as well as Xerox.

Interview : I was second candidate for interview. There were around 20-25 candidates in my panel. So, my turn came up within 20 minutes after document verification stage. I dint even get time to think something. I entered into the room. There were 4 males (M1, M2, M3, M4) and 1 female(F5) panellists.

M1 was the main panellist. He asked most of the questions. As soon as I entered, he started asking me about me and about my MBA project.

M1: Tell us something about yourself and your project.

Me: Answered. I told my achievement of IIM-A invitation in this so cross questioning on that.

M1: Why did you go to IIM-A?

Me: I explained how I went through an Essay writing competition and spent two days with PGP students.

M1: So you wrote essay on Sanitation in India? Why?

Me: I explained. Then he mockingly said he want to read my essay.

M2: What is IFSC code?

Me: Explained well.

M2: Then what is MICR code? (To give me stress)

Me: I simply said I can’t recollect.

M3: What are Banking products other than Accepting deposits and giving loans?

Me: Explained well.

M1: Tell us more related to Rural Banking products.

Me: Explained Microfinance, Kisan Vikas patra.

M1: What is Kisan credit card?

Me: I explained Kisan Vikas patra but he was expecting Kisan Card. I said I don’t have an idea.

M2: So you are MBA(Finance). Do u know Ratio Analysis?

Me: Explained.

M2: What is Current Ratio? What is Ideal Current Ratio?

Me: Explained.

M2: If Current Ratio is 5:1. Is it good or not?

Me: Explained. I said good. Some cross-questions on this.

M2: Components of Current Assets?

Me: Explained.

M1: If Bills Receivables is 80% of current Assets, then Is 5:1 ratio good for company?

Me: I said in that case it is not good and explained. They were satisfied with answer.

M2: What is DSCR?

Me: Debt- Service Coverage Ratio. Couldn’t explain.

M2: He said its o.k but tell us is it used for short term or long term?

Me: Explained well. Long term. He was satisfied.

Overall, it was a good Interview from my side. All panellists were satisfied with my answers. One female member and 1 male member din’t ask anything. They were just observing. I was confident throughout the Interview which helped me a lot. Because of my confidence they didn’t do much cross questioning with me.

Last but not the least, My Interview was a bit different from general ones. They din’t ask any question on Why Banking? Why PO? They asked questions more on my subjects(finance) and my extra curricular activities.

Suggestion:

1. Be confident.

2. Don’t be nervous.

3. Keep yourself cool.

4. Believe in yourself.

5. Read general Banking questions.

6. Prepare questions on your own profile.
