seems like their 'new intake' just re-open! XD

what major are you guys in?
I have got 9 papers exemptions in ACCA plus passed 4/5 Professional Papers. Can I apply?

Yea I would also like to ask the same question, is there a difference? Salary wise? Career scope wise? Any insight would be helpful

wow so fast? mind to tell us whats ur qualifications?

I just got back from the interview today. (In the previous page, i have posted my initial story as 27tees)

It was difficult. They ask you tough questions and are quick to catch small mistakes. So, if you were to lie, you WILL get caught, although i didnt. Im sure its normal because they must get alot of BS coming from interviewees' mouths.

All in all, it was a tough interview, tough questions asked about my previous experiences, about what i like about citibank, about the banking industry and so on. But as long as you dont fabricate any information in your CV, youll be fine or you WILL get caught out.

The interview lasted 1 and a half hours and i he told me that it went good and told me a salary that is different from 3.5k (dont knw if he tells everyone that). Hope this helps some of you prepare for your upcoming interviews. Good luck!

What do you mean by tough questions about your previous experiences? Care to give an example?

Just curious, would you leave Microsoft if Citibank offers you this position?

hahah.. how is the salary different wise.. better or worst =)
what qualifications do you guys possess.. mind to share..
i hold a bachelor of business and my fren's a masters in risk management.. but we didnt get any call back =(

hi guys

i am a GE in Citibank...I can tell you that Citibank Marketing is planning to expand the program so we're definitely hiring more GEs

To answer the main question...You do not have to be a foreign grad to be a GE but I can say that 90% of my fellow GEs are foreign grads (ALL have 2nd upper and above results).

They are looking for dynamic fresh grads who MUST speak good English and MUST be able to do presentations well.

You are expected to be a fast learner and work through tight deadlines

If you enjoy marketing, I recommend it but be prepared for long hours if the project u are working on demands it.

Hi kycha, I am having my interview next tuesday. I juz wanna ask if the GE program is a rotational program or we have to choose a department to work in? Thx ^^

Its a rotational program within a department

For example if you are placed in Cards department, you'll have 2 rotations in either Usage, Retention, Strategy, Merchant, Creative, Rewards, Portfolio

You'll definitely have one rotation in Sales to learn what the man on the ground faces

a final rotation in backroom ops - risk, legal, IT

should be about 16-17 months all in all

I got a call today morning too! But I can't remember the HR lady's name. Was it May or Amy? I'm really poor at remembering names.

=(

Added on March 24, 2011, 2:58 pmDear Kycha,

I'm guessing the GE program doesn't rotate you to corporate banking yeah or any other divisions within CitiGroup?

Considering that CitiBank is a consumer bank and this GE program is structured around personal banking etc.

Which means by the end of the program, you will have a full insight in Retail banking.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks Kycha!
