Dear Bharat,
1. The IP Office does not announce separate exam for TM Agent. The graduate who wants to get registered as TM Attorney/agent need to file the details and apply to The Registrar in Form TM-1. On receipt of such application, the Registrar, if satisfied that the applicant fulfils the prescribed qualifications, shall appoint a date in due course on which the candidate will appear before him for a written examination in Trade Marks Law and practice followed by an interview.
2. TM Agent is a person authorised to do any act on behalf of others for getting TM registered, other than the making of an affidavit.
3. Yes of course, the person with basic knowledge can get job, but his future and career profile depends on his performance. If a person has basic knowledge of IPR and if he wanted to choose it as his career then he must enhance his knowledge (by completing Certificate or diploma course) or may pass the various exams being conducted by IPR Office.
Hope this information is useful to you and may satisfy your above questions.
Regards,
