Every year almost every bank carry out exams for the clerical cadre. And people in large number give this exams in order to get a good job with good progress. This is a wise decision of those who opt for banking industry as their career.

The age criteria in clerical jobs is very similar to age limit in bank PO jobs which is mostly between 21 – 30 years of age with slight variation depending on the bank to bank. Almost every bank has similar kind of exam pattern for clerical exam. The selection pattern is mostly on the basis of written exam & interview. The bank conducts PO exam & Clerical cadre exam at basic levels. For higher grades, there are other exams also.
If anybody is interested in bank PO exam, then they can go through how to prepare for bank PO exam & bank probationary officer ( PO ) exam Syllabus

The candidates opting for bank clerk exam should make sure that they are eligible for this post i.e. they must fulfill some eligibility criteria like-

  • should be an Indian
  • should have at least 60 % aggregate marks in matriculation or equivalent
  • should have at least 50 % aggregate marks in Higher Secondary Exam of 10 + 2 + 3 pattern

The written exam will have 4 sections in which questions will be on the basis of  following fields :

  1. Reasoning ability – In this reasoning capability of the candidate is asked. The questions will be of types like no. series, alphabet series, blood relations, age calculation problems etc.
  2. Quantitative aptitude – In this maths of class X is asked. So applicant must thorough with all this. The topics like algebra, profit loss, percentage, time & distance, ratio & proportions  etc.
  3. General awareness – The outside world is equally important for you to prepare for bank exam. For this, you must go through news paper, magazines etc daily. Also you must have the knowledge of current affairs.
  4. English – This subject is also equally important. Grammar is main target. The books are available easily in market. You must go through them.
