A PO (Probationary officer/Assistant Manager) in a Bank is the lowest position in the Officer’s cadre. He/She has to do all the work starting from Customer dealing to back office job. A PO has to verify the work that has been done by a SWO/Clerk such as Cheque passing, NEFT/RTGS Verification, Issuing a Cheque Book and many others. From Day begin to Day end, a PO has to take all the reports and also report them to account offices.
