Only roll numbers/registration numbers are published and shortlisted/selected candidates are informed individually through SMS/Email/Post. All details regarding recruitment like notice, interview schedule, final result etc., are published only on  sbi.co.in/careers and  bank.sbi.careers,” as per the notice.
