Do you want to clear the SBI PO and become a Chief General Manager? It is a question that the majority of aspirants know before competing for the SBI PO exam. And it is a good sign of an intelligent candidate to make a choice after proper research and analysis! Are you one of them? An SBI PO can appear in internal examinations conducted by the State Bank of India for the promotion to become Chief General Manager. One cannot directly apply for a managerial position, as the post requires sufficient experience and managerial knowledge about banking operations.
But to reach there, you will have to clear the prelims and mains written examination and the personal interview round as well. SBI POs carry out the official day-to-day work of the bank on a daily basis. These officers undergo a probation period of two years in the banks. In this period, they learn the day-to-day workings and terms of the Bank, as most of the candidates who apply for the posts have no prior idea about the banking sector.
Let’s now take a look at how your career can experience progress as an SBI Probationary Officer!
The career growth path for an SBI PO is as follows:
Rank-11 | Chairman |
Rank-10 | Managing Director |
Rank-9 | Deputy Managing Director |
Rank-8 | Chief General Manager |
Rank-7 | General Manager |
Rank-6 | Deputy General Manager |
Rank-5 | Assistant General Manager |
Rank-4 | Chief Manager |
Rank-3 | Manager |
Rank-2 | Deputy Manager |
Starting Rank | Assistant Manager |
A probationary officer works on probation for two years. After successful completion of the probation period, he or she becomes an assistant manager.
An assistant bank manager helps the manager in the smooth functioning of the bank and ensures everything gets done on time.
A Branch Manager is responsible for coordinating and directing the operational functions of financial institutions such as banks, building societies, or credit unions. They oversee front-office operations, provide high levels of customer service, and direct regular team meetings and training sessions.
A chief manager is responsible for relationship management within the department and with cross-functional teams. He conveys sales meetings and actively participates in driving companies’ goals and objectives.
An assistant general manager assists the DGM in all his activities and takes care of instructing the juniors in the absence of the DGM. The reports of daily work are taken by the AGM and submitted to the seniors to convey the progress to them.
A deputy general manager manages the actual employees of the company and looks after the Execution of the orders given by his seniors. In case if anything goes wrong in the functioning of the company, the DGM handles it initially.
A chief general manager oversees the functions of all the branches within a state.
As an SBI PO, your career will experience quick promotions and growth, as the promotion process takes lesser time as compared to other PSBs. There, the employees get promoted on basis of merit relatively quickly. SBI PO promotions happen after clearing the internal exams and not on basis of seniority. An SBI PO has the chance to get promoted to a higher rank, mentioned above, every year on clearing a written examination and an interview. Hence, Chief General Manager’s journey doesn’t stop at where he reaches! Reaching this post opens up the gateway to becoming the General Manager (GM) Deputy Managing Director, Managing Director, and finally the Chairman of the SBI. But the promotions solely depend on SBI PO promotion policies. Sometimes it may take 35-40 years of service at State Bank of India, as in the case of the current Chairman of SBI, Rajnish Kumar, and sometimes 30-40 years of service, as reflected by the career growth of the former Chairman of SBI, Arundhati Bhattacharya, who joined SBI as an SBI PO in the year 1977. So, we can deduce from these two cases that within 30-40 years of service with SBI, an SBI PO can possibly reach the top position.
