Citi IB Interview Questions

Q: What is the Citi investment banking interview process?

Typically a first round of one or two 30-minute interviews mixing technical and behavioral, followed by a superday of several interviews with associates and VPs in the target group. Citi weighs fit and group interest heavily alongside technical accuracy. OFFERGOBLIN's Bank & Round mode mirrors the format.

Q: How technical are Citi interviews?

First rounds stay close to the core — the three statements, valuation methodologies, a DCF walkthrough, and a basic LBO. Depth increases in later rounds and varies by group. OFFERGOBLIN's Citi-tagged questions span the range so you can drill from screen to superday.

Citi is a global bulge-bracket bank with a full-service investment banking platform across coverage and product groups. First rounds lean on core accounting and valuation; superdays go deeper on the coverage or product group you are recruiting for.
