My interview went for 10 mins, I had 90 in the test. I am a gold medalist too in MBA Finance if it makes any difference.
They started with the pronunciation of my name and made some comments on it which I tried to dismiss humorously. Then one of them asked me about my favourite area in finance. I told them that i took a thesis on Basel, which was surprising for them and I think impressed them, i was asked who allows such difficult topic for thesis (jokingly) and how can a student achieve that.
Then they asked 2 to 3 questions -or was it a discussion i am not sure- about Basel accords. They were pretty impressed by my academic achievements, one of them asked about negotiable instruments, promissory note and while explaining promissory i said that currency is too a promissory note, then he asked if this is backed by anything then i said gold upto a minimum 1.2 billion pkr, he said its more than that i said yes its 287bn against 3.55tr of circulation, the other one said that you would obviously know about the monetary policy and fiscal policy and such because you are a bright student, so no need to ask that, then he fired the shot that took me down, and asked will there be any issue if you were to be posted elsewhere?, i said yes but i dont think it will remain an issue in the years to come. I tried defending my position by telling them why i am not allowed to work elsewhere, and how i was an orphan looking to support my family which is dependent upon my paternal family. and they started an advisory session. and told me that such a limitation will hinder my career goals and opportunity to work with sbp or any other organization for that matter, and i needed to convince my family to be less conservative, one of them said that i can, if i were to get this job move my family to other cities as the pay will be enough to cover the costs, but i remained somewhat apprehensive and anxious throughout this advisory session. after about 10 mins they said i can go and thanked me, then before leaving i asked if i had any chance, the middle one smiled and said beta your chances are good as any other candidate sitting out there.
Please tell me what should i expect as i am going over the dreadful 10 mins in my mind again and again and any hope left in me is getting crushed each time.
