Institute of Banking Personnel Selection

The banking sector is poised to create eight lakh jobs in the next six years, according to a recent study by Assocham, the highest body of the chambers of commerce of India. This will mainly be due to expansion of branches and addition of new banks, says the study. As many as 26 public sector banks are going to hire 50,000 employees in the current fiscal.

The Common Written Examination (CWE), conducted by the Institute of Banking Personnel Selection (IBPS) for recruitment of probationary officers/management trainees in participating organisations, is one of the gateways to get into the sector.

Any eligible candidate who aspires to join any of the participating organisations such as Allahabad Bank, Corporation Bank, Bank of Baroda, Punjab National Bank and UCO Bank as a probationary officer, management trainee or a similar post in that cadre, is required to take the CWE. Candidates who appear and are shortlisted in the examination will subsequently be called for a common interview to be conducted by the participating organisations and coordinated by IBPS.

IBPS will be conducting the exam on October 26, 2013, and October 27 for selection of POs in 21 PSU banks. Graduates in any stream who are aged between 20 and 30 years are eligible to appear for the exam.
