Down memory lane!
Way back in 1959,just after
graduation,I contacted
Madurai Branch of PNB,
nearer my home for a
job. Mr. Rudhra was the
Manager.
The interview was short
and simple.
First,he gave me a sheet of
paper to write a paragaraph
of my choice but insisted that
the text should contain numerals:
the numerals of a Baner should
be legible.
2. He pulled out from his draw
a pack of neatly cut sheets
of the size of currency notes.
Asked me to imagine the
denomination,count quickly
(he was peeriing athis watch)
and tell the amount.
3. He again pulled out a long
sheet of paper with varous
amonts and paise in a long
column. He asked me to
add up quickly wihout going
back the column and tell
the amount.
Does a recruit Bank Clerk
need any other skill!
He asked me to join the
next Monday.
But as I have to work for
six months as Unpaid Trainee
I changed my mind.
