Name : Nishant Sharma

Interview Date : 22.1.2015

Interview Time : 8:30 AM

Location : Residential Staff College, PNB, Sector 6 Panchkula

Panel : 6

I Reached at 8 30 am, document verification started at 9 am.

I had been allotted panel 6 and my name was 4th on the list which meant my documents were checked as well as interview taken as the 4th candidate.

Interview began almost at 10 30am.

Panel : 4 men and 1 lady

Me  : may I come in sir?
Them : yes
Me : Good morning ma,am, good morning sirs.
M1 : (he was sitting in the middle and seemed to be the chairing the panel) What is your name?
Me : Sir my name is XYZ.
M1: OK sit down.
I sit and thank him.
M1 : What are here for today?
Me : Sir I am here to give an interview
M1(smiling pleased with himself) - Then give it to us. How will you give?
Me: *confused* Sir through my words, my presence...
M1: will you be present all day? No you have come to "appear" in an interview, not "give"...you give things...blah blah...
Me : Ok sir, I'm sorry.
M1 : No need for sorry....
(he smiled looked at other members and continued) Today's generation has this habit of using language as they fell like and don't care for spellings, grammar.
*I was caught off guard with this. Don't remember if I was smiling or looking flushed.*
M1 : (reading my application and documents) What have you done?
Told but I said BE instead of simply engineering.
M1 : What is the difference between BE and B.Tech?
Me : Sir there is only the difference of name, a person becomes engineer after both.
M1 : But then why are they called differently, there has to be some difference!
Me : Sorry sir I'm not aware of any other distinction.
M1: What do parents do?
Told
M1:Year of birth?
Told
M1: Don't you think you are too young for this job?
Me : Sir I think my being young is my positive point...INTERRUPTED
M1 : I did not say that it was not your positive point.
Me: yes sir...I...so I am young but willing to gain experience by working instead of getting more education.
Lady was handed over charge of questioning now.

Lady : Where are you originally from?
Told about my native place but that I have always lived in Chandigarh.
Lady: Ok so tell us about Chandigarh?
Told...I kept going as they didn't stop me I paused twice but they were just staring.
Lady : Ok.
M2  : Who is the adviser to the Administrator of Chandigarh?
*I had prepared Mayor, Governors, MP , even knew a new adviser has been appointed but didn't know his name.JUST MY LUCK*
Me : Sir he has been appointed recently and it was in the news that he was touring the city but I cant recall his name. I'm sorry.
M2 : Did you sit for any Campus Placements?
Told that I was placed but didnt join.
M2 : Don't you think you would contribute better in your own field? Why banking?
Told him my interest is in banking, government job , stability and security.
M2 : Who is the CEO of Infosys? Why was he in news recently?
Told but both of us had different pieces of news in mind.
M3 : What is lobby banking?
Me: Lobby is a group that tries to influence in politics...
M3 : no tell me about banking!
Me: sorry sir I dont know.
M3 : What is bank guarantee?
Me : I don not know sir and I dont wanna guess.
M4 : (he seemed to be the psychologist) What is the difference between RAM and ROM?
Told
M4: What is balance sheet?
Told
M4: Give the names of 4 assets.
Me : Loans,,,
M4:Yes thats one..3 more.
Me:Sir I only know that Loans are assets and Deposits are liabilities for a bank.
M4: Do you read the newspaper?
YES
M4:Give headlines.
GAVE
M4: What is disinvestment?
Told
(What  came next was a very clever question)
M4: If the government privatizes the PSBs, will you quit because you have said that you want a government job?
Me: I will not quit and there would be some safeguards for the old employees.
M4: I'm done.
M1: Thank you.
Me: Thank you sirs, maam. Have a nice day!
Came out feeling like a grilled sandwich!!
Another thing, all the panelists were writing something down in between.
I did get very nervous at times, so it was not a cake walk but all said and done it was a fine learning experience that I need to get over nervousness.

Update : Guys, here are answers to questions I found tricky.
1. This one explains the concept of Lobby banking:
