During my journey of 13 years in State Bank, I have worked across various departments and levels, from Field Officer in Agriculture business branch to Credit Analyst in Credit Processing Cell. In 2012, I was selected for an overseas assignment in China. I was posted for a period of 3 years as Asst. Vice President (Trade Finance & Credit) of Tianjin Branch. The Bank took care of all of my professional requirements with credit appraisal training in Singapore, orientation program in Dubai and software training in Hong Kong. The accommodation and package offered at foreign offices is unimaginable. The best thing that I liked about my stay was the hospitality offered in a place as culturally different as China. All my apprehensions about my stay went away when the CEO & Country Head (China Operations), telephoned me himself within half an hour of my arrival to welcome me. On personal front, my kids got the opportunity to study in one of the best international schools. My 3 years of stay at Tianjin branch is certainly the best period of my professional as well as personal life and I feel privileged working with State Bank of India.

My journey of 5 years, which began, as a Probationary Officer in March 2011, has been exciting, rewarding and fulfilling. In this short span, the Bank has provided me with ample opportunities to work in challenging environments in various capacities like Customer Relationship Officer (CRO), Relationship Manager (Premier Banking) and Dealer in different locations. In my daily work, I get to interact with the dealers of other PSU, Private & Foreign Banks, which is a great learning experience. While being a part of the largest treasury of India is heartening, the opportunity to interact and work with the brightest minds is equally fascinating. It is the only bank that allows the officers to be placed in Middle Management group directly from Probationary Officer upon completion of probation. The policy of the Bank to provide equal career opportunities to its women workforce, extending full support during maternity leaves, accommodating location change to be with your spouse, and complete medical coverage of self & family makes the Bank an ideal employer and a great place to work.
