Hello and welcome to exampundit. Our very own Aritra (Disqus ID: BlueSky) was selected as a Officer Scale I in Bangiya Gramin Vikash Bank in West Bengal has shared a brief on the growth, salary & job profile of an Officers Scale I in RRB.
JOB
PROFILE & RESPONSIBILITIES OF OFFICER: Officer Scale 1 is
essentially a Management Trainee job. The new recruits are kept on
a probation period for two years. On the successful completion of the
Probation period, the Manager Trainee will be promoted to the Assistant Manager
position. They need to work in various govt social schemes for the sake of the
rural poor people. The job mainly limited to
agriculture advances and dealing with rural populace, particularly small loans.
As basically branches are small, we need to do all kinds of job like cash
handling, passbook printing, various account opening, issuing of cheques, drafts,
cheque clearing, judging borrowers & loan handling, recovery etc. As there
is huge man shortage in RRBs, being an officer you need take responsibilities
of every aspect of banking.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN IBPS & RRB PO :
- Place of posting:
In case of IBPS po you may get posted at any part of the country, but in case
of RRBs you mainly get postings in rural areas of your state. - Salary Difference: In case
of commercial banks you will get around ₹1500-2000
extra which varies from bank to bank due to different allowance and differences
in HRA. - Growth opportunities : As far as I know the chairman
of an RRB is a scale V or VI rank officer of a PSB and hence growth is limited,
whereas in PSB’s the growth prospects and opportunities can keep you busy for
your entire working career .Being a officer of RRB you can reach upto scale
four as a Reigional Manager. - Diversity of work : As I have already
mentioned work range in RRBs mainly
limited to Agricultural loans and small priority sector advances where PSB’s
offer a wide range of work avenues: corporate loans, treasury, forex, managing
HNI’s etc. The range of services is the key here.
CONCLUSIONS:
It depends on your preference or career
goals. If you give importance on career growth and salary go for Commercial
banks. On the other hand if you wish to remain in your home state, limited career
growth and less perquisites in comparison to that in commercial banks you can
opt for RRBs. But I would like to add the job of RRB is also very interesting
as you will get chance to serve the local populace. Though in RRBs you all not
find exposers like PSBs but you will feel
a job satisfaction after serving poor rural people. Now you have to take
the final decision.
