Getting a job as a probationary officer in any public bank has never been an easier task. One has to qualify its entrance test i.e. IBPS exam. Earlier, every nationalized bank used to conduct their own entrance exam but in the year 2011 IBPS (Institute of Banking Personnel Section) has made it compulsory for all 19 major public banks to conduct the national level eligibility exam for selection to these banks. 

BANK PO exam is conducted every year for those candidates who wish to get jobs in the posts of Probationary Officer and Clerical Post (Clerk).
