State Bank of India will recruit 7,740 clerks to work in its associate banks.
According to a notification posted on SBI’s portal, the online registration of applications would begin on July 30 and will continue till August 13.
The written examination is likely to be conducted in two phases on October 7 and 14.
A clerk in SBI would earn approximately Rs 14,200 a month. A first division in intermediate or a degree from a recognised university is the minimum educational qualification required to apply for the examination.
Mr C.S. Vepa, Director of National School of Banking, a coaching institute for bank jobs, says the notification should bring cheer to job aspirants as the number of vacancies are higher than last year.
Last year, the banking behemoth hired a little over 6,000 clerks.
Further, SBI is the only bank which conducts its own state-wide competitive examination for recruitment.
Other public sector banks use scores obtained by candidates in a common written examination conducted by the Institute for Banking Personnel Selection, for short-listing candidates for interview.
