    Responsibilities

  • 3. Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
  • Extensive responsibility - I fortunate enough to work on projects where I could take initiative and lead large portions. I would say that this is on a case-by-case basis - dependent on the intern, the team they work with, management, etc.

  • 7. Would you recommend Citi to a friend?
  • Yes


  • 8. What advice would you give to others applying to Citi
  • Research the division you are applying to thoroughly and demonstrate in interviews - for instance, TTS is heavily product-based and a lot of information about these products can be found publicly online, so you should learn some and explore one or two in-depth that interest you. They don't expect you to understand how the company is structured unless you have previous experience in a bank.
