The SBI PO 2025 notification was officially released on 23rd June 2025, and as per the schedule provided in the PDF, the Preliminary Examination is expected to be held in August 2025, followed by the Main Examination in September/October 2025. The Interview and Final Selection phase (Phase III) is likely to be conducted in October–November 2025, and the final result will be declared thereafter. While exact dates for each phase are not always announced in the notification, they are later shared via the official website of the State Bank of India (https://sbi.co.in) under the careers section. Candidates are advised to regularly check the website and registered email/SMS for updates regarding admit cards, exam dates, and other instructions. The entire SBI PO recruitment process usually spans around 5–6 months from the release of the notification to final appointment. Given the limited time between the notification and the exam, candidates should begin preparation immediately after applying. The SBI PO exam is conducted once every year and remains consistent in its timeline, with the Prelims usually happening 6–8 weeks after the notification is released. For 2025, August is the tentative exam month for SBI PO Prelims
