I applied online. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at Citi (Tampa, FL) in Mar 2015
Interview
HR is very slow and hard to get ahold of. Hiring process very lengthy and not streamlined at all. Definitely could use improvement in this area. Also no preference is given to internal development.
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Citi (Gurgaon, Haryana) in Oct 2014
Interview
Interview process was elaborate & went on for over 3 months with different stakeholders. Most questions were around past experience and domain knowledge. There was a written test which I thought was a little too much for a senior position.
Most of the times it will be people at you own level asking you technical questions which can be a little intimidating.
No body talks about the hierarchial work culture & colonial mindset in the interviews.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Citi (Singapur) in Apr 2014
Interview
Comfortable, a few rounds of interviews including phone interviews. There was a face to face with the hiring manager, followed by hr phone screening, phone interview with Unit head base in New York. A long process but they were friendly and it was more like a chat. Ask a lot of questions because they seem to look out for that.
