1. Inspiring Success Story of Preeti Sharma

Never think of giving up, whatever the conditions are!

Hello Friends,

I am Preeti Sharma. I am selected in Union Bank of India as Clerk. I completed my B.tech from EC. After completing my graduation, I opted to go for government exams.

I wrote SSC, NTPC, and IBPS Clerk in 1st year of my preparation but missed by 2 and 1.5 marks respectively and cleared Prelims. I gained confidence.

Then I decided to pursue my career in the Banking sector so started preparing for banking exams. In the first two years, I was able to clear prelims only.

The main reason for not qualifying for mains was a lack of practicing of mains level questions and not having the knowledge of good platforms like Oliveboard. In 2018 I Joined Oliveboard’s online platform and it was one of the best decisions I made.
