Analyst Review

I really enjoyed the exposure to the different asset classes so I could get an idea of where I would best fit in. I think this is a great way to get interns to get a broader experience.

I got constant feedback from the desks I rotated on. I was told what kind of tasks would be helpful to the desk and so when I completed those, I got the sense that my work was valued and appreciated.

Although the trading floor was extremely busy at times, I always felt like I had the opportunity to speak to my manager and there was always support from not only my manager but also my colleagues on the desk.

I always had something to do. Mostly quick turn around tasks but in-between I would work on longer projects for the desk.

One of the best parts of this internship is that I was able to carry out tasks which directly helped the desk I was on. Therefore I did feel like I was given a good deal of responsibility as colleagues depending on the accuracy of my work.

I certainly have come away from the internship a lot more efficient and I have learned how to prioritise better.

It was a really great atmosphere throughout. Colleagues are always willing to help and explain. I was included in desk social events and was treated as an equal.

Very well indeed. I got both the desk rotations I wanted and all the activities organised by the HR staff was a great way to get to know everyone and relax. The whole 10 weeks was well structured and very professional.

I was always expected to ask questions and learn more about the finance industry and not shy away from my own personal development. I was encouraged to learn as much as I could in the 10 weeks so that I knew what to expect in a full time position. We got regular talks by senior management and also junior staff and therefore got a 360 degree view of the markets business.

I was offered a full time position within Citi starting next year and I am very happy to have accepted. We have been told about the focus on graduates and the drive to hire more and invest in us. Therefore I am very confident that future employment prospects are very positive at Citi.

Yes, we had regular drinks on a Friday but also had HR organised social events throughout and therefore really had a chance to unwind and relax.

Although canary wharf isn't cheap, the salary from the internship covered living expenses and entertainment costs.

There are great bars and restaurants in the surrounding area and therefore there is always a place to go for a drink with colleagues or go for dinner.

There are many clubs and societies at Citi. Many of these have regular events. I played cricket for my desk against one of the clients which was really enjoyable and when I start full time I will think about getting involved in more sporting activities at Citi
