Hello Sir/Madam,
I recently received an offer from a reputable MNC engaged in manufacturing automotive parts for leading auto giants in the Training & Development department. They are offering me this position with a 2-year bond and a salary increase of around 5k monthly after the first year. As a newcomer in the HR field, I am quite confused about whether to accept this offer or stay home to prepare for Government banking exams. Please advise me on what questions I should ask them regarding the service bond.
Thank you.

Dear Milanantani,
First and foremost, let me comment on the choice of your words. You have used the word "indulged". Do companies engage in manufacturing activities or indulge in it? I request you to check the meaning of the words before their usage. The choice of words is very important, gentleman/gentlewoman. Else, it could land you in trouble!
You have two options. One offer is confirmed, and it is in the private sector. The other is not an offer as such. It is your desire to pursue a career in the banking sector. In the former, you can rise a little faster. On the flip side, the job guarantee is less. In contrast, in the government banking sector, growth may be steady, but job security is there. Therefore, more than the job, I recommend you to look at your career ambition. Above all, at this stage, you are only appearing for the competitive exams. What is the guarantee of success?
"A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush" goes the famous proverb. Whether to live it up or defy it, the choice is yours!
As far as questions are concerned, in addition to the 2-year bond period, you need to ask questions regarding the job profile, to whom this position reports, job challenges, Key Result Areas (KRAs), and so on.
All the best!
