Interview
[Note - I have just given first interview only as of now which is screening round]
Citi has partnered with Karat for screening process. In this your interview is scheduled with Karat and some random person is assigned who is not from Citi.
Format is like this:
First brief introduction about myself, then for every round is times according to section and the interviewer sets counter.
Second section was for abinitio where 10 minutes were allocated and asked generic questions.
Third section was of 20 minutes for SQL where w3schools like platform was provided by Karat where they ask questions and we have to write answer and generate output. Whatever they do and we do are visible to each other in real time.
Fourth section was of 20 minutes for python coding (yes even though I am an abinitio developer) but as per interviewer it is mandatory to write code using our own chosen programming language.
After applied online, an email will be sent to complete an online Assessment, which is required to be completed in the next 48 hours. It consists of four parts, numeric reasoning, logical thinking, and some others. Some practice questions are provided before the actual questions start.
