KNOWING THE MANAGER
WHAT MADE YOU ENTER INTO
BANKING ?
“It was my dream from the time I entered
in my college. I wanted myself to be in the
banking sector. It was my personal
opinion that the banking sector is the
most growing sector in finance. And I
personally believe in organizational
growth.”
HOW IS THE WORK-LIFE
BALANCE BEING WORKING IN A
BANK ?
“My work – life & my personal – life,
both are at balance. I believe that if
you can, you can. And if you cannot,
you certainly cannot. And I enjoy both,
my personal life as well as
professional.”
TELL US ABOUT YOUR

“My first achievement was CASA, which
stands for CURRENT a/c – SAVINGS a/c. I
& my team worked for attracting many
of our customers for CASA. We also
attracted many customers to open
Fixed Deposit a/c & Demat a/c.”
DID YOU EVER APPLY TO ANY
OTHER AREA THAN BANKING ?
„NO‟.
WHAT DO YOU ENJOY ABOUT
THIS INDUSTRY ?
“I enjoy the growth part, money & the
service giving nature of our bank.”
KNOWING THE BANK
WHAT IS YOUR BANK’S
RECRUITMENT PATTERN ?
“Our recruitment pattern is that we
take students of Management as
Trainees directly from the Colleges. We
even take those students who have
experience in Finance field. We also
recruit students having a professional
background like CA, CS.”
HOW DO YOU KEEP YOUR
STAFF MOTIVATED ?

staff to know about their interest & in
which area of banking do they suit

change is that now it is not that
hard to withdraw cash. Until 2002
we could not swipe ATM cards but
then the era of debit card arrived
which helped each & every
customer to receive money just by
swiping a card. Anywhere banking
has also arrived.”
KNOWING THE CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP
MANAGEMENT
WHICH WAS THE MOST DIFFICULT
SITUATION YOU HAVE HAD TO
FACE ? HOW DID YOU TACKLE IT ?
NO SUCH SITUATION.
TELL US ABOUT A TIME WHENYOU
HAD TO DEAL WITH THE
BEHAVIOURAL TRAITS OF
CUSTOMER ?
“We once had a lady whose debit card was
stuck in our ATM machine. She became very
nervous & tensed. She even started crying.
She was not ready to understand the
procedure there after. I made her calm
down, then explained her that since her card
was of another bank, she’ll have to bring a
letter from that respective bank then only
we can hand over the card to her. Again, she
will have to apply for a new card at her
bank. A whole lot of mess was created
during this incident. It was really like an
achievement to make her understand all of
that.”
“CAN YOU DESCRIBE THE
COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS
YOU ARE PART OF AND THE
IMPORTANCE OF BEING

sole of ICICI.

Life Insurance.
ICICI Lombard, General Insurance.
ICICI Direct, For Trading.
Talking about the local

competition, essay writing,
drawing competition for the kids &
women.”
THE FUTURE OF BANKING

SCOPE FOR BANKING IN
NAVI MUMBAI ?
“We’ll be opening 12 New
ICICI Bank Branches in Navi

BANKING SECTOR, HOW DOES
ICICI MAINTAIN IT‟S LEADERSHIP
POSITION ? AND WILL THERE BE
ANY MERGERS/ACQUISITIONS BY
