Jammu and Kashmir Bank Limited (J&K Bank) has declared the result of the Written Examination for Engagement of Apprentices held on 31 May 2026, under Recruitment Reference No. JKB/HR/Rectt/2026-182, for 614 Apprentice vacancies under the National Apprenticeship Training Scheme (NATS). The result was declared on 1 August 2026. Candidates who appeared for the online written examination can now log in through the official J&K Bank careers page at jkb.bank.in/career to check their result. Candidates who qualify the written examination will proceed to the Document Verification stage – there is no interview. The apprenticeship is for a period of 12 months, with a monthly stipend of Rs. 13,500 (Rs. 9,000 from the Bank + Rs. 4,500 from the Government via DBT).
Important Note: Three things to note carefully. First, the result was declared today, 1 August 2026, and the official J&K Bank careers page at jkb.bank.in/career may take a few hours to display the result link – candidates should check periodically. The result login is through the IBPS examination platform, which is the official platform used by J&K Bank for this recruitment, so this is the correct route. Second, a waitlist of 50% of the notified vacancies is maintained for one year from the result date or until the next recruitment exercise, whichever is earlier. Third, selection as an apprentice does not guarantee employment at J&K Bank after completion of the 12-month engagement – this is a training engagement under NATS only.
