hello there…btw i got 129 scores in the ibps po exam but when i applied for po vacancy in some of the psu banks like union bank,corporation bank,i got a respond that i am not eligible for the process after entering my registration no & password.kindly tell me whats the problem?or reply to my email pls
only eligible criteria is given in the advertisement of every bank. based on the no. of application recieved ,they will decide the cutoff and call the candidates in the ratio of 1:3 or 1:5 depending on their wish
there is complexity of time for every banks. one bank should wait for the result of another in order to selected the candidates, who was not selected by other banks.we have to wait until all the vacancy of 19 banks and their advertisement regarding vacancy. so , please wait and dont lose confident. if a student got selected in 1 bank then his no. will blocked by ibps even though he applies for othed bank.
