Bank of Baroda (BOB) has declared the result for its Apprentice Recruitment 2026, releasing a state-wise provisional selection list of candidates who cleared the online written examination held on 21 June 2026. This is for the Bank’s large-scale engagement of 5,000 Apprentice posts across India, conducted under the Apprentices Act, 1961.
1. Recruitment Overview
Bank of Baroda had earlier advertised 5,000 apprenticeship openings nationwide, drawing applications through the BFSI Sector Skill Council (BFSI SSC) portal alongside the National Apprenticeship Training Scheme (NATS) and National Apprenticeship Promotion Scheme (NAPS) frameworks. With the written exam now complete, this result marks the transition from Stage 1 (online examination) to Stage 2 (document verification and further checks) for provisionally shortlisted candidates.
| Particulars | Details |
|---|---|
| Recruiting Bank | Bank of Baroda (BOB) |
| Conducting Agency | BFSI Sector Skill Council (BFSI SSC) |
| Post | Apprentice (under Apprentices Act, 1961) |
| Total Vacancies (original notification) | 5,000 |
| Written Exam Date | 21 June 2026 |
| Result Declaration Date | 18 July 2026 |
| Result Format | State-wise Provisional Selection List (roll numbers only) |
| Official Website | bankofbaroda.bank.in |
Since the list is organised state-wise rather than as one giant combined roll — and covers states from Andhra Pradesh and Assam through to West Bengal — candidates should go directly to their own applied state’s section rather than scanning the entire document, which saves considerable time given the scale of this list.
2. Important Dates
| Event | Date |
|---|---|
| Online Application Start Date | 19 May 2026 |
| Online Application Last Date | 15 June 2026 |
| Online Written Examination | 21 June 2026 |
| Result Declared | 18 July 2026 |
| Document Verification | To be notified separately, state/UT-wise |
Provisionally selected candidates should start preparing their document set now rather than waiting for the formal DV call — the notification structure (large scale, state-wise rollout) means DV dates are likely to be staggered, and being document-ready in advance avoids any last-minute scramble once your specific date is announced.
3. Vacancy Details
The original Bank of Baroda Apprentice Recruitment 2026 notification sanctioned 5,000 training seats for Apprentices under the Apprentices Act, 1961, distributed across states and Union Territories including Andhra Pradesh, Assam, Bihar, Delhi, Gujarat, Haryana, Karnataka, Kerala, Maharashtra, Odisha, Punjab, Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu, Telangana, Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal, and several others.
Important caveat directly from the Bank: The number of training seats mentioned in the original notification is provisional and may vary according to the Bank’s actual requirement — meaning the final number of candidates engaged after document verification could differ from the originally advertised 5,000.
4. Eligibility Criteria
Eligibility for this recruitment was fixed at the application stage (Advt. dated 19 May 2026) and gets formally re-verified only now, at the document verification stage — not before.
Key point on verification timing: All candidates were admitted to the written exam provisionally, based purely on the information they themselves entered in their online application. Their actual eligibility — covering age, educational qualification, and category (SC/ST/OBC/EWS/PwBD) — is determined only at the time of Document Verification, after they’ve qualified in the written test. This means clearing the written exam is not the same as being confirmed eligible; DV is where that gets settled.
For NATS-registered candidates specifically: The date of passing Graduation should not be more than 4 years prior to the cut-off date of 01 May 2026.
Since this notice doesn’t restate the full original eligibility conditions (educational qualification, age limit, category-wise relaxations), candidates should refer back to the original Advt. dated 19 May 2026 for the complete criteria that applied at the time of application.
5. Selection Process
Selection for BOB Apprentice 2026 runs through multiple sequential stages, and this result marks the completion of Stage 1 only:
- Online Written Examination (completed) — Held on 21 June 2026. Candidates whose roll numbers appear in the provisional selection list have qualified this stage.
- Document Verification (DV) — Conducted at a centre decided by the Bank, within the State/UT the candidate applied for. Candidates must attend at their own expense; the Bank does not reimburse travel costs for DV.
- Local Language Proficiency Test — Assesses the candidate’s ability to read, write, and speak the local language of the state/region they’ve applied for.
- Medical Examination — Conducted as per the Bank’s prescribed medical fitness standards.
Important: Being provisionally shortlisted in this result is not a final confirmation of selection — actual eligibility with respect to age, qualification, and category is verified only at the DV stage, and candidates found ineligible at that point will not proceed further regardless of their exam performance.
Bank’s right to cancel: The Bank retains the right to cancel an apprentice’s engagement at any point, without prior notice, in case of any misconduct by the apprentice.

Documents to start preparing now (based on the Bank’s DV requirements for this recruitment):
- Educational qualification certificates/mark sheets
- Caste certificate (SC/ST/OBC-NCL — the Non-Creamy Layer certificate must be valid as on the date of the advertisement, i.e., issued within one year prior)
- EWS/PwBD certificate, where applicable
- Character certificates from 2 referees (certificates from relatives are not accepted)
- 4 passport-size photographs (same as uploaded on the NATS/NAPS portal)
- Address proof — both permanent and communication address
Note on OBC certificates: The caste name mentioned in the certificate must match letter-by-letter with the Central Government’s OBC list — mismatches here are a common and avoidable reason for rejection at DV, so double-check this carefully before your verification date.
