POINTS TO KNOW WHILE SELECTING THE PREFERENCES OF IBPS CLERK 2017


  1. While filling application for recruitment of IBPS Clerk you will also have to be very careful while choosing the state for which you are going to apply. IBPS has clearly mentioned in the notification that the candidate must be fluent in the regional language.
  2. As IBPS Clerk is a state-level job, thus if you are looking forward to work near your hometown you can give preference to the bank which has more number of branches in your state. This can increase the chances that you might get a branch near your hometown. However, which ever bank you'll choose will/can post you at any of their branches within the state you are applying for.
  3. If I'll prefer banks that have not yet declared their vacancies (NR/Nill) then how will this effect my selection?
    • This questions might be bugging you as there are 19 participating banks out of which 3 have not declared their vacancies with the status NR. But if you choose any of these banks as priority in your preference list this will have absolutely No Effect On Your Selection. Remember, as there are 19 participating organisations, all those who have not declared their vacancies yet might declare them on later stage of recruitment. So if you'll select any bank out of these 19 as priority, then upon declaration of complete vacancies you'll have a good chance of getting the Bank of your choice.

    • The headquarters can be criteria for choosing a bank. This is because whatever bank you chose, you will find more number of branches in the state where the headquarter is located. This can increase your chances of staying in or near your hometown while working in that state. So, in this article, we are providing a list of banks and their headquarters.
