**Mumbai, India** – The State Bank of India (SBI) has announced a major recruitment drive, opening 13,735 vacancies for Junior Associates (Customer Support & Sales). Applications open December 17, 2024, and close January 7, 2025.

This significant recruitment initiative provides a substantial opportunity for Indian citizens seeking employment in the banking sector. The positions are state-specific, requiring proficiency in the local language of the chosen state or union territory. While a local language proficiency test will be conducted post-Main Examination, candidates with proof of studying the local language in 10th or 12th grade will be exempt.

The selection process involves a two-stage examination: a Preliminary Exam (tentatively scheduled for February 2025) and a Main Exam (likely in March/April 2025). Applicants must hold a graduate degree from a recognized university and fall within the age limit of 20 to 28 years (relaxations apply as per government norms). Crucially, these positions do not offer inter-circle or interstate transfers.

Interested candidates can apply through the official SBI websites: https://bank.sbi/web/careers/current-openings or https://www.sbi.co.in/web/careers/current-openings. A direct link to the notification PDF is also available. Further updates on exam patterns, admit cards, and other details will be released in due course. For more information on the recruitment process and eligibility criteria, please refer to the official notification.
