Let me guess....you got hired from Graduan Australia...me too!

Melbourne...got interviewed by the young guy

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.

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

Sorry for the late reply

The GE program is quite new so currently there's no rotation in Corporate Banking......I don't think there will be for awhile

There's GE programs for Retail, Cards Marketing & Finance Dept (by special request)

I think the bulk of u who are interviewing are studying in the UK right?

Good Luck

Every single MA i know has a Masters degree
