Interview for Canara

Yesterday another pleasant news came up.

I was selected for 4th PO interview in a row.The interview is on 11th of October and I will use it as a mock exercise for the main battle on 29th (SBI Mains interview)

Hi All ,

It was June 2009 when I cleared the clerical exam of SBI Associate Banks and then itself I knew that if I could do this I can clear the PO exams as well.Meanwhile I had already a job in Infosys and joined there on 10th August .

But my aspiration to be a PO had not died.I respect my current Infy job but finally you have to take a call one day , you have to take a look of yourself in mirror and ask yourself if you are really enjoying what you are doing .For me the answer was a resounding no inspite of being a CSE engineer and being in a truly great firm like Infosys.

So I decided to take a plunge in PO examinations and went through the grind of searching for that elusive job .When most of my mates were busy with the different exams that was part and parcel of Infy training my thoughts were fixed on being a PO someday.

It took 7 exams .. 2 first round rejection, 1 2nd round rejection, 1 interview rejection before I was finally selected as a PO in State Bank of Patiala.

I still have a interview result pending for Bank of Baroda and my interview for State Bank of India is on 29th of October'10.

One thing I want to share is getting in a PO is not that tough what people think of it.On hindsight I was lucky that there were jobs pouring like never before in PO sector.

7th of September 2010 - The date when I was selected a PO in SBP will always be the one the most defining days of my life.

Still not decided if I would join it or not but my life@PO has begun !
