Corporation Bank SO Exam Guide and Practice Questions
132 topics across 6 subjects. Every question carries a written explanation.
Corporation Bank no longer exists, so there is no Corporation Bank SO recruitment.
Under the Government of India's amalgamation scheme, Corporation Bank and Andhra Bank were merged into Union Bank of India with effect from 1 April 2020, making Union Bank the fifth largest public sector bank. Corporation Bank's branches, staff and customers moved across, and it has not recruited since.
For specialist officer jobs now, look at Union Bank of India, which runs its own specialist officer recruitment (see the Union Bank recruitment page), or IBPS SO, the common process that fills specialist officer posts in eleven public sector banks, Union Bank among them.
The practice questions here are still useful: banking, reasoning, quantitative and English material is common to every bank SO paper.
