[QUOTE=Stalin;557169]Currency notes are printed at State Bank of Pakistan
Customer dealing qualitites entails good communication skills, and so on, seach it on google. Deeply disappointed to hear that we'll be hired for counter jobs :'([/QUOTE]

Currency notes and coins are printed and minted at Pakistan Mint. Its located at Shalamar Lahore, I believe. However even it you don't know that that should not be much of a problem.

They don't need that level of intellect for a person based on counter exactly how many a times are customers going to turn up and ask for Pakistan mint?

[QUOTE=Stalin;557197]Dear, I am not sure of the department, but i don't think the Interview panel will ask such a question. Obviously, I will take whatever SBP gives us. I appeared for both YPIP and Junior Officers, to be honest I think the difficulty level of both the tests was same. I am deeply disappointed in myself too, should have studied harder for YPIP and should have appeared for SBOTS. Well, I can't bring back time now. But a counter job is not what i had in mind. :( :([/QUOTE]

Nothing to be disappointed about. I myself missed out on SBOTS and YPIP. I had OG2 in my mind during my graduation. But I don't thing this is the end of the world. keep your head high, its good if we start low, we would know how things work out.

Keep searching for better opportunities just don't stay idle. Get SBP on your CV and God knows better what he has for us in the bag.

I agree, they will basically see how confident we are, about SPB, SBP-BSC their difference, their functions, and about ourself

Very best of luck to all

Here is how the interview went... Met Tweet!

A panel of four very polite people took the interview. They asked me about the Job description, which I sincerely had no idea, then they carried on explaining. They told me about the horrible job I was about to sign in for. They asked me about my aspirations and how this job fits into that.

Plus they asked three qualities of mine. Then they told me about the three important factors for motivation. Money, environment and jd. They asked which one inspires you the most.

They asked me as to how I would be able to continue with my studies along with the job.

One of the panel member never questioned me. At the end they asked me if I had applied for any other position like YPIP and SBOT... Why did I not apply for those positions.

In a nut shell it was good it ended in about 10 minutes.

I was a list with 38 candidates.

Interview was quite simple....hardly 5 minuts :-(
just asked would you able to do customer dealing job why are you interested in it ? in other words just tried to dissapoint me from all aspects regardint this job :-P
Moreover guys....there were 100 candidates total from all across the pakistan who appeared in interview...and maximum interviews were held here in Lahore of 38 Candiates...its mean in Karachi and Islamabad candidates where less than 38. Moreover ..its still not certain that what are the number of positions. Initial contract is for 2 years and interview panel clearly stated its not sure what would be future after 2 years

Lets hope for best :-)
