There are good chances of career growth in RBI after getting appointed as an assisstant. As season of RBI Assistant examination is going on, I appreciate ur this question in the community. Assistant post is equal to a clerk post. U will be doing clerical work there but what matters is the goodwill in this that assistant/clerk of RBI. Apart from this i would also like to tell u that since this is only clerical post so u will always have good promotion options therein to get into officers post and also its various scales. Apart from all this u will enjoy benefits of various allowances for various expenses depending upon ur post from time to time for working in the premium bank.
