I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Citi
Interview
Mostly HR and CV based questions to check fit with the role and the company. Also tested simple finance concepts. You need not have a pre-existing finance background. However, sound reasoning as to why you wish to join Citi and giving logical answers to their questions would probably be necessary.
