My state has no or less no. of vacancies.Can I apply to other state? Yes but remember the following points you will have to appear for the clerical exam in the state you apply for. knowledge of local language.Although not compulsory, it can fetch you extra marks in personal interview If selected, you may have to work in a branch located in that state for first few years.

I don't know the local language of a state.Is that a problem?
It is not a problem but ‘may’ lower your chance of final selection.Since state bank considers it to be an added qualification, the person with language skills could be selected over someone who doesn't know it.
Although you cannot enter degree marks in application, it is possible to specify your std.12 marks (above 60% only) & submit the online application form.

I am currently in 3rd year of college.If appointed, can I join the bank after my course completion?
