As most of you would be aware of
already, SBI Associate PO Interview call letters have been issued. Many of you would
be appearing for this Interview process which starts from February 16, 2015.
For this process, along with the call
letter, a bio-data form has been released. Candidates are required to fill this
form themselves and carry it to the interview venue.
We are receiving lots of queries from
students regarding these bio-data forms. How should we fill the bio-data form? From
where should we get the Character Certificate issued? Is the Character
certificate issued during School or College valid or not? These are some of the
typical questions that we have been getting.
In this article, we’ll try to address some of
those concerns.
What does the bio-data form comprise?
The bio-data form consists of
factual information about a candidate. It carries information related to the candidate’s
academic background and work experiences. Fill in all the correct details in
the bio-data form.
Character certificate – You can
produce a character certificate in any format issued by your school, your college,
your company or any gazetted officer.
Character certificate can be issued by –
1. Last
Educational Institute
2. Past/Present
Employer
3. Gazetted
Officer of State/ Central Govt., MLA, MLC, MP, Branch Head of State Bank of
India or a Nationalised Bank
A Character certificate that was issued more
than 6 months prior to the interview would also suffice.

state/central Govt., MLA, MLC, MP, Branch Head of State Bank of India or a Nationalised

Character certificates issued by different officers and one identity
