I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Citi (Belfast, Northern Ireland) in Mar 2018
Interview
Very easy, applied online and then got invited to face to face interview. Panel of manager and assistant. Just basic scenario questions, tell me about yourself etc. Didn’t hear back for almost 4 weeks and then got an email telling me I was successful. Please note that NOTHING moves quickly at Citi.
Much more fit questions than technical questions asked, prepare strong elevator pitch and research on the fit and culture. Hiring interviews proceed fairly quickly if hiring manager is keen but do engage with HR regularly for updates.
Had one call, asked high level technical questions for example on the yield curve, current news, and interest rates. The interviewer gave me no indication of whether I would move on to the next round or not or how I was doing during the interview.
three rounds not that hard. applied 10 days before contacted for an email questionaire, then 1st round panel interview with two people, two days later got an email calendar invite for a 2nd round interview in two business says.
