About the Interview
Candidates have to secure minimum percentage marks in interviews to become considered for final selection.But this mark shall be decided by the bank only.
Since clerical jobs are to be filled, certain weightage will be given for individuals possessing knowledge of local language.So you may be asked to answer questions or read a passage in regional language by the panel.
There are books available to help you prepare for sbi clerk interviews.We had published a detailed review of one such book that can purchased from the link here:

More than the selected lot, its the unsuccessful candidates who will be longing to know their marks & cutoffs as such details are not displayed with the results.
Like previous years, State bank of India may disclose the cutoff marks only after the entire selection process is completed.
Congratulations to those who have cleared SBI clerk recruitment.
