That’s it...Interview lasted for last 25-30min....They said Ashwani you can leave now all the best to you.
I said thank you to all of them and left.
It was really a nice experience. I have appeared in various interview from banking to insurance but this experience was very special. I have strong desire to work with NABARD/RBI as their work culture is very different from banking sector and more over that they are apex intuitions.
