SBI PO 2016 Success Story: “IMPOSSIBLE IS NOTHING”

Hello friends, I am Swarnendu. You might be thinking that “Omg! Another success story”, but chillax it will not be a story of boast off and the story of hard work and stressful battle. It is a true journey song of an Engineer from the field of diodes and triodes to banking. Though I have never liked engineering but I somehow managed to grab 3 jobs in my final campus placement in 2015 but my heart said to me, “Hey, you have got this job so easily. You should do better”. So, guys I have left them and started to think about which govt job suits me better. As I knew I am not a true engineer so I never tried for GATE exam.

In this way, banking attracts me with its “lucrative package and perks”. My first attempt was IBPS PO V and by gods’ grace, I managed to clear written but due to my overwhelming joy and over confidence I lost it by a margin of 1 marks in the final list. In this case, we strugglers generally curse our luck and god and I also did the same. But, I was determined to achieve success in these govt exams and I again failed in UIIC and LIC AAO written exam too. I never gave up my fight and I knew success is a matter of 3 days (prelims, mains and interview).

So, I again started preparation but friends I was never been among the top 5 percentile students of any mock tests. I just focused on consistency and analysis of my weakness. Then SBI PO mains exam day came and seriously it just landed a big punch to my face, but as I decided not to give up, I analyzed the whole paper and came up with decent attempts and finally after clearing GD and interview successfully now I become an SBI PO.

When I found my roll no. on that final pdf, I could not believe my eyes but suddenly I have realized that it is God’s grace as after massacre in IBPS PO, I never thought about the packages and perks, I started loving this sector because of the good things like responsibility, social cause and somehow my determination, motivation and eagerness moved God. So, friends, never lose your faith in God and in yourself. Keep self-belief and be loyal to yourself and be motivated whenever other “surrounding chit chats” try to depress you.I will not tell you about how you study and in which way you should prepare yourself because I know you all are self -sufficient and you all have potential and I also believe all 4767 people who has made to the interview phase of SBI PO are equally great and talented.

I also thankful to career power Kolkata for their immense help towards me and my batchmates during interview preparation for IBPS and SBI. Thank you, sirs and madams, and friends I will be very much glad to see your success story in upcoming exams. I believe that if I can achieve this, anyone can do it –“IMPOSSIBLE IS NOTHING”.
