I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Citco (Singapore) in Jun 2017
Interview
1 hour test testing accounting knowledge plus an interview. There are 2 interviewers. After this round it is straight hire/reject. But they might reuse your application and transfer your application to another team but tell you that you passed the first interview (actually you failed, thinking that applicants do not know). Some teams take 1 week for the interview result, some with immediate result after interview. Overall, interviewers were nice and as long as you have accounting background and is interested in this industry, you might have a chance.
Interview questions [3]
Question 1
They asked 1 journal entry question to test your accounting knowledge.
The interview was a Whats App phone call for 15mins. Technology is so poor they do the interviews over whats app - computers don't have video calls, no teams or anything. Very few questions - barely felt like an interview.
Smooth yung hiring process. First ay Assessment and Written Interview then 2nd is Final Interview with supervisor and manager. Yung mga questions ay usual interview questions like tell me about yourself, how do you handle stress/pressure, etc.
2-3 weeks yung period ng hiring process.
