The notice does not state any number of posts. So do not wait for a seat count before deciding. If you meet every condition below, apply within the window and keep your documents ready.
This engagement suits a specific group of people. You should be a retired officer, not a serving one. You should have handled real credit work, such as large loans, project finance, consortium accounts or foreign exchange business. And you should still be comfortable working on a computer every day. If all three describe you, read on.

Service and Experience Conditions
| Condition | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Retirement | Retired honourably, either on superannuation or through VRS |
| Service record | Not awarded any punishment (major or minor), and not charge sheeted & punished for serious lapses/offences in active service |
| Certificate (other PSU banks) | Retired officers of other PSU banks must furnish a certificate in the prescribed Annexure from the HR Department of their bank’s Head Office |
| Scale at retirement | Scale III or above |
| Total experience | Minimum 15 years as an Officer in the bank, with a satisfactory track record |
| Credit experience | At least 3 years in high value credit, project finance, consortium lending or foreign exchange portfolio, at branches, at controlling office/s, or as Credit Auditor |
| Computer skills | Adequate computer knowledge; must handle computers independently, as the inspection report has to be punched online |
| CBS knowledge | Must be well versed and familiar with Finacle Core Banking Solution (CBS) |
The 15 years must be service as an Officer, and the 3 years of credit work is counted inside that service. Experience as a Credit Auditor also counts towards those 3 years, along with credit work at branches or controlling offices.
Notice the service-record condition carefully. It is not only about major penalties. Even a minor punishment in your active service makes you ineligible under this notice. If you retired from another PSU bank, request the HR certificate from your old Head Office early, because you cannot send the hard copy without it.
