PLEASE READ BLOG ON THE SAME TOPIC DATED AUGUST 23, 2011

Over 50 lakh expected to apply for vacancies in 19 public sector banks

HYDERABAD, AUG. 19:
The first-ever Common Written Exam (CWE) for clerical positions in 19 public sector banks will be conducted by the Institute of Banking Personnel Selection (IBPS) in November this year.

The online registration for the exam would commence from August 25, 2011, Mr M. Balachandran, Director, IBPS, told Business Line.

The interested candidates would have to register themselves with IBPS before September 25, 2011.

The score achieved by a candidate (to be valid for one year) would be used by banks while filling up vacant clerical positions to be announced in due course.

“The job-seekers need not attend any written test for jobs in participating banks again. They will be called for interview/personality test directly based on their score,” Mr Balachandran said.

The candidates should the complete registration process early to avoid last-minute problems, he added.

The pattern of the exam is almost similar to existing clerical recruitment tests with questions in reasoning and numerical aptitude, among others.

Clerical recruitment in public sector banks has been significant, with vacancies ranging from 30,000 to 40,000 for the last three years as per the hiring figures of various banks.

OFFICERS' EXAM

In response to the CWE for probationary officer posts notified last month, about 14.5 lakh candidates had applied. “We expected 10 lakh applicants,” the Director said.

IBPS is gearing up to conduct the exam on September 18, 2011. All the participating banks would share the responsibility of conducting the exam.

“Each participating bank is being entrusted with responsibility for at least one State,” he said.

Except State Bank of India, almost all other major banks are part of the common exam
