Interviewed Dec 2011 in New York, NY (took a day)
Why Citi? Why IB? What are ways to value companies? The interviewer was challenging but very nice. Asked me who the CEO, chairman and the presidents are and what the ratios are as well. Pretty straightforward but do need to prepare for the interview.

Interviewed Feb 2011 in New York, NY (took a day)
Did two 2 on 1 interviews, mostly fit - most important is to be relaxed and show them who you are, and to show interest, do some research about the group.

Initially applied through school career resource center. Talked with recruiters at career fair. Called in for a 1st round interview on campus with 2 employees. Called about a week later saying I was invited to an onsite interview day. Consisted of an interview with 2 technical managers, 1:1 interview with an HR manager, an individual case study, and finally a group case study with a group presentation to around 4 interviewers.

Interviewed Jan 2011 in Los Angeles, CA (took a day)
This is for the IBD group at Citi.
My resume was submitted in the morning, and someone called me that afternoon to schedule a first round phone interview within the beginning of the next work week. The call was to two associates in the firm, on speakerphone, although only one spoke/asked questions. After running through my resume, we moved onto the technical portion of the interview. Typical questions were asked on Accounting (Income/Balance sheets) and Valuations (DCF, different valuation methods). The interview lasted approximately 30 minutes, and at the end I was informed that I would be recommended for the next round. Someone called me later that evening to schedule the next interview.
