I heard that IBPS will stop conducting bank exams hereafter.Is it true?

No.Its completely false.

It is true that public sector banks are under severe stress due to rising NPAs. It was due to this reason, IOB did not recruit for few years as RBI imposed PCA action on them to clean their accounts.

But other banks will continue to recruit freshers for entry level jobs.For that to happen, IBPS bank exams needs to happen as planned. Due to operational reasons, the number of vacancies ‘might’ get reduced but it is too early predict now.

It’s Exam Time from August!!

Looking at the table, you need to allot the later half of the year 2022 completely for bank exams.

The common written examination for Officers (scale I,II & III) & Office Assistants in Regional Rural Banks (CWE RRB-XI) is scheduled in August 2022.

Similarly, you will have to appear for IBPS PO (CWE PO/ MT-XII) & IBPS Clerk (CWE CLERK-XII) during October, November & December 2022 respectively.

They will be followed with the IBPS SO (Specialist-XII) prelims in December & Mains in January 2022.

How Many Vacancies?

IBPS normally the releases the vacancy list for PO, Clerk & Specialist officers only after publication of exam results.

So you won’t be able to get the exact no. of bank jobs in 2022-2023 at this point of time. But just like previous years, public sector banks could hire in the following range:

  • PO: 1000 – 2000
  • Clerk: 4000 – 6000
  • Specialist Officer: 1000 – 2000
