To encourage the youth of our country to join the banking sector as young graduates and for their organised recruitment, the Institute of Banking Personnel Selection, commonly known as the IBPS, was established. The IBPS carries out the recruitment of such individuals after a clear assessment of their qualifications and capabilities.
For this purpose, IBPS conducts several examinations pertaining to different posts. Most recently, IBPS had organised the IBPS PO/MT examination, which was carried out for the recruitment of Probationary Officers (PO) or Management Trainees (MT).
Earlier this year, IBPS has announced the vacancy for a total of 4,336 posts for PO and MT in several banks across India. For the selection of Probationary Officers and Management Trainees, the IBPS carried out the selection in two stages comprising of a Preliminary examination and the Main Examination.
