❖ Stage II: Shortlisting/Screening: Based on the marks obtained in the online exam, candidates are shortlisted in a specific ratio for the next round. For certain highly specialized roles, the bank may directly shortlist based on academic merit and experience.

❖ Stage III: Group Discussion (GD) and/or Interview: Shortlisted candidates will face a personal interview (and potentially a GD) to assess their communication skills, personality, and technical depth. The bank reserves the right to conduct the interview via video conferencing or in person.
