I applied through university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Citi (New York, NY) in Sept 2015
Interview
It was a basic interview with behavioral questions in the starting. Simple questions on team work, leadership. Then, I faced some numerical questions like probability, calculas, trigonometry questions. Over all it was a nice but you definitely needs to be strong in mathematics.
We also discussed that the second round of interview would be more technical and questions on programming skills would be asked.

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.
