The selection will be made by the Appointments Board as per the existing methodology of interaction of the candidates with three panels of the sub-committee of the Appointments Board.
The candidates will be rated out of 100 marks with 50 marks to be awarded for Annual Performance Appraisal Reports (APARs) of five years and 50 marks assigned on the basis of performance during interaction with the sub-committee.
Guidelines have also been prescribed for eligibility criteria for the post of executive directors of nationalised banks. General managers of nationalised banks and chief general managers (CGMs) of associate banks of SBI who have risen from the Associate Banks Service, and who have completed two years of service are eligible for consideration for the post of executive director.
