SBI PO Selection Process

The SBI PO selection process consists of three stages: Preliminary exam, Mains examination, and Psychometric Test (Group Discussion/Interview). Let’s discuss each stage in detail:

1. Preliminary Exam

The first stage of the selection process is the preliminary exam, which is qualifying in nature. The prelims exam consists of objective-type questions from three sections: English Language, Quantitative Aptitude, and Reasoning Ability. The total marks for the exam are 100, and the duration is one hour. The cutoff marks for the preliminary exam are determined by the SBI based on various factors, including the difficulty level of the exam and the number of vacancies.

2. Mains Exam

The second stage of the selection process is the mains exam, which consists of objective and descriptive tests. The objective test is further divided into four sections: Reasoning and Computer Aptitude, Data Analysis and Interpretation, General/Economy/Banking Awareness, and English Language. The descriptive test includes Letter Writing and Essay Writing. The total marks for the mains exam are 250, and the duration is three hours. The cutoff marks for the mains exam are also determined by the SBI based on various factors.

3. Psychometric Test (Group Discussion/Interview)

The third and final stage of the selection process is the psychometric test, which includes a group discussion and interview. Candidates who qualify the mains exam are called for the psychometric test. The group discussion is conducted to assess the candidate’s communication and leadership skills, while the interview is conducted to assess the candidate’s overall personality. The marks obtained in the psychometric test are added to the marks obtained in the mains exam to prepare the final merit list.

The final selection of candidates is based on the combined performance in the mains exam and the psychometric test. The marks secured in the mains exam (out of 250 marks) are converted to out of 75 marks, and the marks secured in the psychometric test (out of 50 marks) are converted to out of 25 marks. The final merit list is prepared by aggregating the converted marks out of 100.

It is important for candidates to note that the cutoff marks for each stage will be different and will be separately published by the SBI. The cutoff marks are used to shortlist candidates for further rounds of the selection process.
