    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • The event was splitted into two virtual and two in-person days. We have been presented the values of Citi and the different teams within each asset class for the Markets division. We participated in a Sales&Trading simulation in one of the virtual days. During the office days, we had the opportunity to network with senior professionals and to shadow two trading desks.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
  • Yes. First of all, I widened my network, not only with the other competitive spring interns, but also with some very smart and kind analysts and directors which helped me throughout these days. Secondly, I managed to find out new information about some asset classes and improved my technical knowledge in regards with those.

    Business Insight

  • 3. What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
  • We have been presented these aspects in a very nice way, firstly through virtual presentations regarding the values of the Citi's business and, afterwards, through face-to-face presentations made by senior employees, who talked about their specific team and the asset class each of them represented. More than that, I was able to discover Prime Intelligence and Equity derivatives for MQA in a hands-on manner by shadowing their desks.
