You have'nt mentioned that which type of Bank exam you are appearing for,so that I can guide you accordingly.Niether you have mentioned your qualification.

However,Banking entrance exams are not as much tough as other entrances of any good recruiting companies.

Nothing to worry use "PRatyogita Darpan" and "Upkar Prakashan" books for preparation of any type of Bank exams.They are the best books for preparing for it.And also the best choice of aspirants.

However,you can also use books of G.K.Publications.If you feel that it is very difficult for you to crak any entrance then better switch to some coaching,they will guide you properly.

Best of Luck

For Selection in banking
Level 1: Aptitude
for cearing it :
start solving Shakuntala Devi
follow the notes of institute which give coaching regarding these Examination
solve R.S Arrarwal this helps in clearing MAt,Bank PO, SBI-PO,SSC,Ralway Recuritment
increase your verbal level
2. Interview
Make an Effective CV(Curirculam Vita)
Be Confident
Littel Knowledge about your job

the preparation for bank exams should be on the lines of mba and ias combined because there are questions based on aptitude and also on general topics,
but the questions are quite easy and an average student can get very good marks,
follow books like aptitude series like r.s.agrwal also follow the materials of time academy
read the newspaper regularly and make notes of important events
all the best

Dear friend,

There are so many bank exams in India conducted by several national and multinational banks in India.

Now-a-days, it has become so easy to prepare for these exams as the candidates can avail the study through electronic or telegraphic media.

You can get the online books for bank exams from the important sites like:

www.bankingexams.com

www.serviceexams.co.in/.../Bank-Pobationary-Officers-Exam-Preparation

www.scribd.com/.../Bank-Exam-Preparation-GuideQuestionBankAllTopics

From the market, you can search for the books for aptitude, general knowledge, current affairs etc.
You can follow the books of R.S.Aggarwal for different aptitude problems, aptitude solving books of G.K. publication, current affairs of Brilliant publishers.

Good luck!

Better try to complete your question.You didn't mention that whether you want to go forward for the jobs as officers or as Bank PO i.e the position of clerk.

The questions will be mainly testing your aptitude level,mental ability and IQ level.
Refer books of R.s Agarwal,Barron,G.k publications,Upkar prakashan which will be available in the market .

If you still feel uneasy to go through the exam then its better that you go for coaching centers.

all the best

Hi,

You have to prepare for quantitative, aptitude, reasoning, english and current affairs to get into a bank job. You can get the knowledge of current affairs from pratiyogita darpan magazine and for the rest you can consult RS Aggarwal's books.

for interview, they mainly ask banking terms like bank rate, repo rate, reverse repo, etc. you need to understand all the terminologies used in the banking sector.

hi!

There are 2 ways in which you can join a bank: either as a clerk or as a PO.

The written exam pattern for both clerk & PO is same. The only difference lies in the level of difficulty. The exam consists of questions from 4 sections:

numerical ability
reasoning
english
general knowledge

For solving questions on reasoning & numerical ability refer the book by r.s.agarwal.
For GK refer pratiyoigita darpan & also read newspaper daily.

Post Re: Preparation for banking sector jobs? written exam, interview preparations?

Good morning-:
it is not mentioned here that which type of banking exam, but i give brief idea about banking exam-
Written exam

it consists following:
- apptitude ( for apptitude follow R.S.Agarwal)
-General knowldege (for GK follow Pritiyogita Darpan )
-computer& Banking questions(follow Arihant Publication books )
Now In case of Interview-
-mainly interviewer ask a question- Tell me about your self
-include how your strengths meet the jobs requirement
-use your personal commercial or advertisment to the job description.
-Be honest.
-share career objective
-use a specific example and try to relate the example to the needed job skills.
- mostly a question is asked in banking sector i.e. "
what do you want join banking sector, so be prepare for this question.

TOp reasons for interviewers rejecting a candidates are as:

-poor personal appearence.
-overconfidence.
-lack of planning for career.
-lack of confidence.
-expects too much too soon.
-lack of tact.
-lack of maturity.
-lack of vitality.
-indecision.
-limp or "dead fish" hand shake.
-only want a job for short time.
-low moral standards.
-fails to make eye contact.
- late to interview without good reason.
so remove these things......

[QUOTE=Unregistered;192864]pls suggest me some of the books for preparing the banking exam[/QUOT

for maths apptitude use R.S.Agarwall.,

Reasoning also use R.S. Agarwall.,


Try to english fluently and practise it by that way you can avoid grammatical mistakes.

Read the english newspaper by that way english fluency improved and note down the current events from the daily newspaper
