📌 Short Information
Institute of Banking Personnel Selection (IBPS) has opened the Common Recruitment Process for Regional Rural Banks (CRP-RRBs-XV). The recruitment covers Office Assistant (Multipurpose) and Officer Scale I, II and III posts in participating Gramin Banks across the country. According to the updated vacancy position, 13,706 posts are currently available.
Online applications can be submitted from 01 to 21 September 2026. Office Assistant and Officer applications are separate. A candidate may apply for Office Assistant as well as an Officer post, but only one option can be chosen from Officer Scale I, Scale II and Scale III.
The qualification and selection process are not the same for every post. Office Assistant and Officer Scale I mainly require a Bachelor's Degree, while Scale II and III posts have additional qualification and work-experience conditions. Candidates should therefore check the eligibility for their chosen post before paying the application fee.
