About 1,11,993 candidates have passed the first common written exam (CWE) for probationary officers in 19 nationalised banks. The exams were conducted by the Institute of Banking Personnel Selection (IBPS) in September this year.
A little over 10 lakh candidates had appeared for the exam. Of them, 36 per cent of the successful candidates were women, while a similar number of candidates were from the rural areas.
The CWE for clerical posts has been held across the country over the past three Sundays. Nearly 43 lakh candidates have appeared for the exam. “The results would be available in February,” said Prof Konar, senior faculty of the institute, here on Wednesday.
