SBI PO admit cards (call letters) and results are issued exclusively through the official State Bank of India careers portal, sbi.co.in/careers. We don't host, check, or store your admit card or result — this guide explains the process and links you straight to the official site.
SBI PO Is a Single-Bank Exam — Unlike IBPS PO
Worth knowing up front, especially if you're also applying to IBPS PO: SBI PO is recruited entirely by one bank, not a joint process across multiple banks. Your admit card, your final posting, and every stage of communication comes from SBI directly — there's no separate "allotment" stage where you wait to find out which bank you'll actually join, the way IBPS PO candidates do. If you clear SBI PO, you're joining SBI, full stop.
The final stage also has its own distinct name and format: after clearing Mains, shortlisted candidates go through a combined Interview and Group Exercise — the Group Exercise is SBI's version of a group discussion/case-study round, assessed alongside the interview, together carrying real weight (historically around 50 marks) in your final merit. Both are covered by a single call letter with your reporting time, venue, and group batch details.
How to Download Your SBI PO Admit Card
SBI releases a call letter separately for each stage — Preliminary, Mains, and the combined Interview/Group Exercise for shortlisted candidates:
- Go to the official SBI careers portal, sbi.co.in/careers (also accessible via bank.sbi/careers)
- Find the current PO recruitment notification, then the call letter/admit card link
- Log in using your registration number and password, as instructed
- Download the PDF and save at least two copies — one on your phone, one printed
- Check your name, photo, exam date, and venue as soon as you download it — not the night before
What Your Admit Card Will Show
Your call letter carries forward the photo and signature you uploaded during registration, along with your exam venue and reporting instructions. This is exactly why getting your photo and signature right at the application stage matters.
If you haven't resized your photo and signature to SBI's specification yet, our SBI PO Photo & Signature guide covers the exact dimensions and KB limits — including the minimum file size limit that catches many candidates off guard.
Common Admit Card Issues — and What to Do
Photo or signature unclear
If your photo looks blurry or doesn't match what you uploaded, this usually traces back to a photo that didn't meet the exact upload specification. Contact SBI's recruitment helpdesk immediately — don't wait until the exam date.
Name, category, or venue mismatch
Do not try to correct these yourself or edit the PDF. Reach out to SBI's recruitment cell through the official helpdesk or grievance channel listed on the careers portal as soon as you spot the error.
Call letter not visible yet
Call letters are typically released a short window before each stage, and timing can vary by cycle. If it isn't available yet, keep checking sbi.co.in/careers directly — there is no way to "check status" faster through a third party.

Open SBI PO Resizer →How to Check Your SBI PO Result
SBI publishes results for Prelims, Mains, and the final interview/group exercise stage on the careers portal, typically through a login-based system or a published roll number list. There's no separate third-party "result checker" — you check directly on the official site.
- Visit sbi.co.in/careers and look for the current PO recruitment results section
- Log in with your registration number and password, if the stage requires login
- Alternatively, search the published roll number list PDF for your roll number
After the Result — Straight to SBI, No Separate Allotment Wait
SBI PO runs through Preliminary → Mains → Interview/Group Exercise, followed directly by a final merit list and joining formalities with SBI itself — since, unlike IBPS PO, there's no multi-bank allotment stage to wait through. Once your final result is out, SBI's own recruitment cell handles all further communication about joining dates and documentation. Each stage typically has its own timeline and, sometimes, its own document upload requirement, so keep your registration details, past call letters, and correctly-sized photo and signature saved and ready throughout.
