hi friends
hope you all are doing well n ready for interview too.. as
you all know , CRR has been cut to 7.5%... you know even
Iceland took over the control of the biggest bank of
country named Kaupthing...n the European bank representing
15 countries that use EURO as currency offered $100 bn
while the bank of england n swiss national bank each
offered $ 10 bn... Bank of Japan also punped $ 40 bn to
get the country out of financial crisis..
n the asin market that was said to be secure so far faced
a fall yesterday when the DOW had fall in prices..
do you know Citi Group is the first largest foreign bank in
India whereas Standard Chartered bank hold second
position.. n StanChar anad many more bank decided to pull
out of the real estate coz of rise in prices in metro
particularly.. as ya all knwo thsi real estate isnt doing
well n coz of stock market is also going down.. Gold is
glittering like anything.. and has touched the heights of
14000 and more..
and i read in newspaper taht inspite of being the largest
bank, our SBI has the minimal employee productivity..
and On Sep 20, RBI proposed to start the mobile banking
services enabling mobile users to make cash transactions
upto Rs 2500.. or Rs 5000.. nearly... but it would be
within country so far..
rest laters.. do keep track of all the current stuff going
on in youe own state...
okie..;
Good luck to all of you.. especially the ones who have
interview on Monday.. do share your experience with us
laters...
take care
stay well y'all

Answer / gopinath
Hi Shivani,
Nothing to Worry. Any Gazetted Officer will surely sign in
a Character Certificate, if you tell them about your
Interview.
Yes . All CC must be recent dated.First get CC from your
Principal and with that Character Certificate go to any
Gazetted officer.
Show him /her the Original Documents with the Call letter
of Interview to trust you. Surely he/she will help you.
Contact any Government Doctors/ Govt. Officers / or you may
also contact the legislative member of your Constituency to
give CC in his / her Own letter head.
If not means , better type the format of CC clearly in a A4
paper and ask them to sign in it showing the documents
Best of Luck. Take Care.
