Is RBI Assistant better than IBPS PO?



Banking sector offers a prestigious career option to the graduates of our country. There are various exams such as IBPS PO, IBPS Clerk, SBI PO, SBI Clerk, RBI Assistant, etc. Every year these posts are notified but the most preferred once are PO level jobs especially RBI Assistant, SBI PO and IBPS PO.

RBI Assistant job is preferred over other bank these days irrespective of the fact that this is a clerical job and offers fewer emoluments than other bank PO jobs. The reasons that led to be as RBI Assistant job to be the most preferred one are given below:

1. Transfer Policy:

RBI transfers its employees after 5 years where as Banks with IBPS PO exam and others offer it after every three years. It makes very difficult for the family to adjust to new environment or region every 3 years but 5 years is tolerable.

2. Work stress:

RBI has less work pressure for the employees than other nationalized banks. It helps the employees to maintain a balance between home and work.


3. Postings:

The postings offered by RBI are in the urban regions where as other nationalized banks have most of the times rural areas especially in the event of promotions with transfers. The other reason for RBI giving such an option is that it does not have any branches in rural areas.

4. Brand name:

RBI is the father of all the nationalized banks of India and thus enjoys number one position. Working in RBI itself is a prestigious one.

5. Working hours and days:

RBI has 5 days working in a week and other nationalized banks have six days working. The timings for work in RBI are from 9.15 a.m to 5.15 p.m. whereas other banks do not release the POs early from the branch unless the table is not clear of day’s transactions and other related work.
                                                         
These are some of the reasons which makes RBI Assistant job as most preferred one. Though IBPS PO job is a better option for those who look for salary only but it has more work pressure than RBI Assistant job.

Make a choice according to your preferences to give a comfortable ride to your career as job satisfaction is more important than only to earn money through Bank Coaching in Chennai.
