IBPS PO is a national-level exam conducted annually by the Institute of Banking Personnel Selection to recruit Probationary Officers (Management Trainees) across 11 public sector banks in India.
IBPS PO in-hand salary ranges between ₹74,000 and ₹76,000 per month after deductions, with a starting basic pay of ₹48,480 and a gross monthly salary of around ₹90,000, including DA, HRA, Special Allowance, and other perks.
Indian citizens aged 20–30 years (relaxations apply) with a graduation degree in any discipline from a recognized university and basic computer knowledge are eligible to apply.
IBPS PO has 3 stages: Prelims (100 Q, 100 Marks, 60 min), Mains (155 Q, 200 Marks, 180 min + Descriptive Paper 25 Marks, 30 min), and a Personal Interview (100 Marks).
Yes, 0.25 marks are deducted for each wrong answer in both Prelims and Mains, so attempt questions carefully and avoid random guessing.
Both recruit Probationary Officers, but SBI PO is conducted by SBI exclusively for State Bank of India, while IBPS PO recruits for 11 different public sector banks. SBI PO is considered slightly more competitive due to fewer vacancies.
Yes, IBPS PO includes a Personal Interview round (100 Marks) after clearing Prelims and Mains. Final selection is based on the combined Mains + Interview score.
IBPS POs can progress from Junior Management Grade Scale I (entry level) to Middle Manager, Senior Manager, Chief Manager, Assistant General Manager, Deputy General Manager, General Manager, Executive Director, and Chairman & Managing Director.
4–6 months of focused preparation covering Prelims, Mains, and Interview stages — with daily mock tests, sectional practice, and descriptive writing sessions — is typically sufficient to crack IBPS PO.
