New Delhi: A major and significant recruitment drive has been launched by Bank of Baroda, a leading public sector bank in India, for youth and professionals across the country looking for a bright career in the banking sector. Under the official recruitment advertisement released by the bank, online applications have been invited to fill a total of 1,100 posts across various departments. The most notable aspect of this recruitment drive is that the bank management, keeping applicant convenience in mind, has extended the deadline to apply, giving interested candidates extra time to complete their forms.

Departments and breakdown of vacancies to be filled:

Under this recruitment drive, the 1,100 vacancies announced by Bank of Baroda have been divided mainly into two specific departments. The first department is Wealth Management Services, under which the maximum number of 1,000 vacancies will be filled for the post of Wealth Executive. The second department is Corporate and Institutional Credit, where eligible candidates will be appointed to a total of 100 posts of Credit Analyst (C&IC). The job location for candidates selected across these posts will be on a pan-India basis, meaning candidates can be posted in bank branches and head offices located in different states and cities across the country.

Important dates and extension of the last date:

According to the released schedule, online applications for this recruitment commenced on 4 September 2026. Following the earlier set deadline, the bank has now fixed 16 October 2026 as the revised final date. Eligible and interested candidates can submit their online applications on the bank's official portal up to 16 October 2026. Applicants have been advised to apply well in advance to avoid last-minute website congestion and technical issues.

Eligibility and experience requirements:

The conditions for educational qualifications and professional experience vary for each post under this recruitment process. Therefore, candidates are cautioned not to consider themselves automatically eligible for all posts based purely on a general graduation degree in any discipline. According to the detailed notification issued by the bank, a relevant professional degree, diploma, or required experience in the financial sector may also apply. Consequently, candidates must carefully check the specific criteria provided in advertisement number BOB/HRM/REC/ADVT/2026/17 before filling out the form.

Age limit and relaxation rules:

The age limit criteria differ for both positions. For the post of Wealth Executive, the age of candidates should generally be between 22 and 32 years. On the other hand, for the post of Credit Analyst, the age limit is set between 21 and 33 years. In accordance with government directives and bank guidelines, candidates from reserved categories such as Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, Other Backward Classes, Persons with Disabilities, and Ex-Servicemen will also be granted specific relaxations in the upper age limit according to their respective categories.

Stages of the selection process:

Bank of Baroda will follow a multi-stage and transparent procedure for the final selection of candidates. In this process, the received online applications will first undergo screening to filter out ineligible forms. Following this, depending on requirements, stages like a computer-based online examination, a psychometric test, and group discussion or interview may be conducted. The final merit list will be prepared based purely on the performance of candidates across these stages.
