I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Citi in May 2022
Interview
For financial analyst interns, the interview was short and straightforward. A group presentation followed by a chat with two team leaders to decide which to join if the interview is successful. Got some questions regarding Excel and financial concepts.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Have you ever used VLookup? Are you familiar with the concept of derivatives?
It was a really good interview process that I really liked and enjoyed doing. The first round was very casual and the questions werent challenging in the slightest. It felt low pressure or stress
They asked a mix of behavioral, technical and market questions. Pretty standard interview, no huge curveballs. There were a few brain teasers and mental math questions, no paper pen allowed.
A few rounds of group interview, some with 1 invigilator, some with a panel, and one one-to-one interview. Interviewers appeared stern and not the most friendly, perhaps to give off a sense of seriousness.
