    About You

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy the insight?

    • I really enjoyed this insight. I expected a lot of it when I applied and was disappointed for it to be cancelled because of the global circumstances. However, I really appreciated the transition to the virtual insight and I am really thankful for having had this opportunity to get to know Citi and many of its people better!

    • Great!

    5/5
  • 4. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and information you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • I feel like coming from business and global affairs-related areas, I learned a lot during the different sessions. We were especially given great insights as regards to the current and future management of the Covid crisis that is going on everywhere in the world. This macroeconomic view on the impact of the crisis was really insightful.

    The Company

  • 5. How well structured was the insight?

    • Despite some technical issues that every one of us could have had, especially regarding wifi connections or different timelines, the insight was well structured according to me. What I particularly enjoyed is that each session was given a large amount of time for us to ask questions and get insights from professionals!

    4/5
  • 6. How was the general atmosphere during your insight?

    • I think we could not enjoy fully the atmosphere of the insight due to the inability for all of us (both students and Citi professionals) to meet in real. However, presenters did a great job involving us in every presentation and addressing our concerns. Fun time also among us through whatsapp group!
