CHOOSING OF PREFERENCES :

Since there are many banks have NIL vacancies and NR , the best choice is to fill the preferences according to the Maximum number of vacancies available. We prefer this type of strategy for your preferential selection because , the banks which have NIL vacancies are Bank of Baroda, Indian Overseas bank , IDBI Bank , Punjab & Sind Bank , United Bank of India , Syndicate Bank and Vijaya Bank.

Out of these banks many banks individually keep separate exams to recruit candidates through MANIPAL , so the chances of these banks recruiting in this IBPS is really a question. We don’t know the exact status of the NR related vacancies , so the wise strategy would be to pick the maximum number of vacancies first and then the NR and then the NIL vacancies in your preferential order.

Also another strategy would be to choose NR vacancies in between the maximum vacancies banks and use the Nil vacancies banks as the last preferred one. As this will not affect the entire preferences because if Nil Vacancies are still in the same category in the end, then your preferences don’t get affected in a massive way.

Another alternative strategy is fill the preferences by choosing the NR vacancies First and then the Nil vacancies and then fill the banks which has the maximum vacancies. This will not affect the preferences if there is little changes in the vacancies list.

The best choice which our team suggest is to by the above three ways. The banks which has the maximum number of vacancies is to be filled first , if you go by the first method. So it’s upto you to choose the preferences and choices. The banks which have the maximum number of vacancies in the descending order is
