I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Citi (New York, NY)
Interview
6 candidates, all with very competitive background. There were coding, math tests and case study. The coding and math were easy, but I screwed up in case sudy. The case study is more like consulting.

I applied online. I interviewed at Citi (New York, NY)
Interview
It was a first round with the hiring manager who mostly asked behavioral questions. He described the role and what they do. Overall the questions he asked were trivial like bond market trading hours. I didn’t know about the sessions after the regular trading session.
