India / 1.7 million apply for 1500 jobs in India’s largest state-run bank

India’s largest state-run bank has received 1.7 million applications for 1500 entry-level clerk jobs – and has promised to examine all of them.

State Bank of India chairman Pratip Chaudhuri attributed the huge interest to good marketing and attractive employment terms, with the number of applications underlining the appeal of “jobs for life” in the Indian public sector.

For positions in Mumbai, the bank offered a starting package of 69,000 rupees ($A1,245) a month.

Job opportunities in the Indian private sector have fallen in the past 18 months as economic growth has dropped to its lowest level in a decade.

The government forecasts that India’s once-booming economy will grow by five per cent in the financial year to March 31.
