Who Should Apply

The post-wise figures add up to 837. "Senior Relationship Manager" and "Deputy Manager" are the same post, and the 791 are included in the 837. [check] One news site reports 805 vacancies for this recruitment, which I could not reconcile, so check the final count in the notification.

Category-wise (all posts): UR 346, OBC 224, SC 124, EWS 82, ST 61 (total 837). The notification also reserves 35 posts for persons with benchmark disabilities (32 of them Senior Relationship Manager), inside the 837 and not in addition to it. The number of vacancies is provisional and the Bank can change it.

Eligibility & Age Limit

Qualification: A graduate degree in any discipline from a recognised university or institution, with the NISM and/or IRDA certification the post lists. For Senior Relationship Manager, the notification asks for NISM V-A / V-D and/or IRDA IC38. A two-year postgraduate management degree or diploma, an MBA in Finance, Marketing or Banking, CFP, CFA or NISM XIII and XXI-A certification are preferred, not mandatory.

Experience: It must be post-qualification and in the relevant wealth management, investment advisory or portfolio management role, in a public or private sector bank, foreign bank, broking or securities firm, asset management company or other financial services organisation. Clerical-cadre, teaching and training experience does not count, and any stint of less than six months in one organisation is not counted.

How Are Candidates Selected

Why This Job Matters

Bank of Baroda is one of India's largest public sector banks, and these posts staff its Wealth Management Services department, which serves affluent and high net worth customers. The recruitment is unusually large for specialist roles: 791 relationship manager posts alone, and the posting is anywhere in India.

The FreshersLike Take

Best fit: A relationship manager with 3 or more years in wealth management at a bank, broking firm or asset management company, who holds the NISM or IRDA certification and wants a contract role at a public sector bank.

Who should think twice: This is not a fresher post, every position is a contract and not a permanent job, and no salary is published, so you will not know what you will be paid until you are in the process.

Practical tip: Check the exact certification first, because a graduate degree plus experience alone is not enough — Senior Relationship Manager needs NISM V-A/V-D and/or IRDA IC38, and the experience must be as a Relationship Manager in wealth management, investment advisory or portfolio management, not clerical, teaching or training work.

Documents Required

• Current resume or bio-data
• Class 10 certificate or another accepted proof of date of birth
• Graduation certificate and mark sheets, and any postgraduate management qualification you claim
• NISM, IRDA, CFP or CFA certificates, as the post requires
• Experience certificates, appointment and relieving letters, latest salary slips and documents showing your CTC breakup
• Photo ID proof
• SC/ST/OBC/EWS certificate, PwBD certificate, or ex-servicemen service or discharge documents, where applicable

Scan all educational certificates into one PDF as the notification instructs. Bring originals and self-attested copies when called for interview or verification.
