I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Citi (London, England) in May 2022
Interview
Initial application, then a test invite a few days later. After that, Business Review. Invited to First round interview after a few weeks which was 2 back-to-back 30 minute long interviews with Juniors. Invited to Assessment Centre 2 days later because they were recruiting very quickly for this role.
Assessment centre was 3 half an hour interviews with seniors (one Director, two VPs).
They're mostly seeing if you'd be a good cultural fit for the company and then the Seniors will decide if they want you on their desk or not.
Smooth, quick process. Enjoyable. Interview questions slightly trickier than at other Bulge Bracket bank/s I've interviewed at.
