State Bank of India, the country’s largest lender, said On Tuesday that it is looking to hire more than 4,200 employees for its associate banks — a development that comes within days of its plan to recruit 25,000 people.
SBI said in a public announcement today that it plans to recruit 4,280 clerical staff at its various associate banks for operations across the country.
The recruitment drive for its associate banks follows SBI saying last month that it would hire 25,000 people in the current financial year — a move that comes at a time when banks across the world are mostly trimming their workforces in the backdrop of a global financial crisis.
The various associate banks for which SBI is looking to recruit the staff include State Banks of Bikaner and Jaipur, Hyderabad, Mysore, Indore, Patiala and Travancore.
There are more than 1,000 vacancies each with State Bank of Hyderabad, Patiala and Travancore, 240- 440 would be recruited each for State Bank of Bikaner and Jaipur, Indore and Mysore.
