Quick Overview Bank of Baroda Recruitment 2026

What This Recruitment Drive Is About

This year marks Bank of Baroda’s 119th Foundation Year, and the bank has decided to bring in fresh talent across six departments on a regular (not contractual) basis. Unlike the usual clerk or PO recruitment that most candidates are familiar with, this drive is aimed at more specialised, mid-to-senior level roles — things like Digital Product Managers, Data Scientists, Civil and Electrical Engineers for facility management, Information Security professionals, and Chartered Accountants for the taxation and accounts wing.

Because the roles are specialised, the eligibility requirements differ quite a bit from post to post, so it’s important to check the exact qualification and experience needed for the specific post you’re interested in rather than assuming general banking exam eligibility applies here.

Department-wise Vacancy Break-up

Candidates should review the complete vacancy details before applying through Bank of Baroda Recruitment 2026. Here’s how the 206 vacancies are distributed:

As you can see, Facility Management and Security together account for a big chunk of the openings — over 140 out of the 206 posts. So if you have a background in Civil/Electrical Engineering, or prior service in the Army, Navy, Air Force, or Police, your odds here are decent.

Post-wise Vacancy and Age Limit

Who Can Apply — Eligibility Criteria

Since this is a multi-department drive, there isn’t one single qualification that fits all 22 posts. For those looking into Bank of Baroda Recruitment 2026, here’s a rough breakdown by department so you can quickly figure out where you fit:

Digital Banking & IT roles — You’ll typically need a B.E./B.Tech in Computer Science, IT, or Electronics & Communication (or an MCA for some posts), along with a few years of hands-on experience working on digital products or IT systems in a bank, BFSI company, or FinTech firm.

Facility Management (Civil/Electrical Engineer roles) — A BE/B.Tech (or equivalent) in Civil or Electrical Engineering is mandatory, plus prior experience in construction supervision, tendering, or maintenance work — ideally within a bank, financial institution, or similar organisation.

Information Security roles — Full-time BE/B.Tech in a relevant stream, or MCA/M.Sc./M.Tech, combined with certifications such as CEH, CompTIA Security+, CCNA/CISA at the entry level, or CISSP/CISM/CISA for the senior manager post.

Security department — This one’s different from the rest. It’s open to Graduates who’ve served as Officers in the Army/Navy/Air Force, or as Police officers not below the rank of Deputy Superintendent, or in equivalent paramilitary ranks — with a minimum of 5 years of Class-I Gazetted service.

Enterprise Data Management Office — B.E./B.Tech/M.Tech, BCA, MCA, or a graduation in Data Science/Statistics/Applied Mathematics, backed by relevant experience in data science, data profiling, or BI/dashboard development depending on the specific post.

Corporate Accounts & Taxation — Chartered Accountant or ICWA for the Taxation and Accounts posts, while the Chief Manager – Investor Relations post asks for a graduation in Economics or Commerce, with CA/MBA being preferred.

Given how detailed and post-specific these criteria are, it really is worth reading the full official notification before you apply — meeting the broad qualification isn’t enough if you’re short on the required years of experience.

Selection Process

• Psychometric Test / Group Discussion, wherever applicable.
• Personal Interview for shortlisted candidates.

A small but important detail: there’s a penalty of 0.25 marks for every wrong answer in the online test, so guessing blindly isn’t the best strategy here. For the interview stage, candidates need to score at least 60% (General/EWS) or 55% (other reserved categories) to be considered qualified.
