Hello puys,
My name is Farhan. Today I attended interview for IBPS PO at Dena Bank HQ, Ahmedabad. Interview time was 1 PM. I reached venue at exact 1 PM. Some candidates were already present in auditorium. We were offered tea and biscuits as refreshments. After that doc verification started. Mine number was 17 and my verification completed at 3.35 PM. Since I was too far in list I have to wait. Waiting period completed at 5 PM. Last 8 candidates including me were being told to reach the waiting area where interview was going on. My panel number was 2. At about 5.30 PM my turn came.
I opened the door asked the permission to get it. There were 4 persons 1F (observer) and 3M. I wished mam first and then other sirs.They wished me back. Head interviewer asked me to sit, I thanked and he asked first question.

Then my interview was over. I thanked them and wished good day.
All the questions were unexpected. There was no why bank, why PO, why not IT officer, GK questions, banking questions. It was great experience. It hardly took 7-10 mins to complete the interview I don’t know whether they were in hurry or what, but I completed my part. Now it’s their turn. If not selected then I still have IBPS clerk and RRB officer scale-1 interview in pipeline.
I am thankful to whole PG family, especially @nikskrish and @ank_mission_IIM to guide me for interview.
Best of Luck ?
