L
interview date - 27 nov 2014
the very first question by the chairman of the panel - You have done Btech, Mtech why do u want to join RBI?
Ans - decided to prepare for govt jobs right after the grad..but enrolled in Mtech coz didnt felt it thoughtful to sit idle and just prepare for competition..
the why in the field of economics and finance??
Ans - Ā those days are gone when a less developed economy could subjugate another merely on the basis of its defence sector's strength..now is the era of economics...a country is revered globally on the basis of its economic might..
then i gave the example of north korea...high spending on defence but people dont know how to operate an ATM..
Chairman gave me 2 counter examples - Russia and China...couldnt counter him ..and then topic was changed
Chairman started the debate of socialism and communism...which one is better..asked when socialist term was added to preamble..thnx to UPSC prepn 42nd Amd Act 1976...then he asked another term which was added..couldnt recall..
another member then came to my rescue..he asked the chairman to change the topic...then the chairman asked a few questions on simple economics - why should we promote economic devt and all..n
another member asked about India being underbanked overbanked or what and why?
how many bank branches in India (asked for approx no.)
another member asked about financial inclusion, business correspondents, business facilitators..answered all but business facilitators..
lady member asked about notification regarding the notes prior to 2005 not to be henceforth valid..reason and why..told her to prevent money laundering,...what is money laundering??
thats it..20-25 mins

Guys, if anyone has interview in Jan/Feb & also wants to prepare MacroEconomics as a subject or "area of Ā interest" then do study on the following MacroEconomic Theories:
1. Adam Smith's "classical theory" - Pre 1929.
2. Keynesian Theory (By Maynard Keynes) - 1933 to 1970
3. Monetarism (Milton Friedman) - RBI has followed this for good 50 yrs for moneys stock targeting.
4. Neo Classical - Late 70s
5. New Keynesian approach.
If you guys can, do add whatever is left to the above list. Since I am not from Eco background some Eco guy can add to the list.Lets discuss these one by one in different posts :)Ā
