SBI has released its official notification for the recruitment of Circle Based Officers (CBO) on its official website. This recruitment drive is for 2600 posts.
A CBO is an experienced banker hired to work in a specific region, called a circle (for example, Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, etc.). CBOs already have at least 2 years of experience in banking who typically manage banking operations, customer relationships, and business development within assigned regional circles. This gives them more job stability and makes it easier for them to stay close to their home or preferred location.
