The State Bank of India (SBI) has released the first wait list for the SBI Clerk 2024 recruitment. This announcement is very important for candidates who appeared in the exam but did not find their names in the main merit list. With the release of the wait list, many aspirants now get a second chance to secure their dream job as a Junior Associate (Customer Support & Sales) in one of the largest banks of the country.
What is the SBI Clerk Wait List?
The SBI Clerk wait list is an additional list of candidates who are considered for appointment if the selected candidates from the final merit list do not join or fail to complete the required formalities. This ensures that the bank does not face a shortage of manpower and that deserving aspirants get a fair chance.
The first wait list is generally released a few months after the final result declaration. It contains the roll numbers and marks of candidates who are provisionally selected for the next stage, usually document verification and joining formalities.
