I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Citi (Ho Chi Minh City) in Mar 2023
Interview
It was pretty challenging for the first round which was a group interview and we had to read 2 papers about foreign direct investments into vietnam at the time. There were a total of 12 interviewees that were divided into 2 breakout rooms and then we took turns to answer the questions that were asked by the hiring managers.
Domande personali (obbiettivi, perché la posizione); domande tecniche; domande logiche. Questo è stato il mio primo colloquio, prima si fa un test online attitudinale. Nel caso di second colloquio un business case.
Initial screening call followed by technical assessment. First round around your fit for Citi, why investment banking, why the specific section, your past experiences, etc. Quite standard questions to assess fit.
