I entered the room and wished everyone. They offered me to take my seat.
M1 : You have been here already ? Is this your first interview? I think I have seen you before.

L1 : You have done M.sc Computer Science and said what is the future of Computer Science… You can become a Teacher na ?  (thank god for asking this question)
Me: I said No mam I have a passion for Banking (before their asking why I myself started to answer for that question :P) I said I am a person who seeks happiness in making others happy… And I always wanted to do a service and a job as in Bank .  In Banks clerks  face several customers .  If I become a clerk I will serve them and I will be more happy if I am posted in a rural area as I can help villagers in their  financial dealings.
L1 : ( she was laughing :D ) And said nowadays customers will scold you pa if they didn’t get fast service…
Me : I said I will be enthusiastic and will serve .. I said an example of an employee in my bank who will be very jovial and enthusiastic in doing the job and I want to be like that. Then I said in Banks it will be great to work with Managers who are very good and if they motivate and help us it will be a great team work.
M1 : In IT also there is a Team Leader and a Project Manger. You can also work as a team there..
Me : I said they are not those kind of people ….they will say that the work is done because of him but in Bank the mangers will say its done by us… 
(Now all of them smiled … )

M4 : He said ok no problem and said there is a limit in it.

Then all the members were seeing each other like any more questions and they all said ok ok… …. Then I thanked all of them and came out.
The whole Interview was in Tamil.

Suggestions to aspirants :
·       They were asking different kind of questions for each person and so don’t expect some questions by hearing your candidates in the panel..  They were randomly asking from certain areas
·       Some of the questions asked to my panel mates were who is the head of TCS, Infosys and asked about some famous Dancers in India and asked to tell some 4 Chief Ministers name and asked in elections congress won in two southern regions what are they and about recent world cup and asked the stadiums in Australia and New Zealand and for one candidate they asked about director Shankar :P.etc……
·       The panel members are very kind and very friendly people. If you start any answer and struggle in the middle they are giving the answers.  Don’t worry if you don’t know any answer because there is no one who  answers correctly may be one or two.. And also the panel members are not expecting you to tell all the answers just they are checking your confidence and expecting that you know something about it.
·       Confidence is the only key again …. J Definitely everyone will get some sort of fear at that time. Especially when your are the next candidate to enter the interview room .  Just remember one thing if you get fear they may dominate you but if you are confident you can drive it in your way. Presence of mind is the important thing here… So be confident…
·       Each and every candidate who came for the interview may not prepared or studied of what they actually wanted to complete. Especially in my case :D …. Only 50 % I executed in my plan. In everyone’s mind there will be a confusion that I didn’t prepare that much so it’s a mistake I may fail in this..And most of them think about the written score…. but just think of the pain or feel of a candidate who has not cleared this exam…  So think that God has given a wonderful opportunity for us. A wonderful chance to attend an interview. No matter if anyone who fails in this.. they will definitely rock in 2015 IBPS exams. So no matter what it happens just give your best…. And you must not think that if I were confident I could have done better…. No Not that statement!!……  So be confident and face it…
I was satisfied with my interview but don’t know about the final selection as written mark decides it.  Let’s hope for the best
   I hope this review helps you. J

All the best for Candidates who are going to attend in upcoming days!!!
