Analyst
Being an Investment Banking Analyst at
Citi
Analysts are critical to the success of our
investment bank. They provide the foundation for everything we do,
from research, valuation and modeling to coordination.
Initial Training
Your training starts with an
orientation that provides you with an overview of Citi and, more
specifically, the Institutional Clients Group. You’ll also get to
meet people from the different teams that make up the Investment
Banking Division and ultimately decide which team you would like to
join. You will be placed depending on your preference as well as
where we might need you.
The in-depth training program is taught by some of the industry’s
most qualified professionals with years of real-world experience.
These fundamental aspects of the Analyst role will be covered:
- Tracking business development (industry trends, organizing
data);
- Financial analysis (financial models, valuation / pro-forma
analysis, corporate finance);
- Client development (assist in the presentation of new ideas to
clients).
What You’ll Learn as an Analyst at
Citi
There’s still a lot to learn after your initial
training. Senior management and client interaction, as well as
mentorship, will help shape your new position as an analyst.
- At the end of the first year as an analyst you can expect to be
an expert in financial modeling & have worked on multiple
interesting projects;
- At the end of your second year as an analyst you can expect to
worked directly with several members of senior management;
- For those who are invited to stay on for a third year, you can
expect to learn a portion of the associate role.
Who We’re Looking For
We are looking for
the best people who have business degrees as well as those with
other backgrounds. What matters most is a high level of motivation,
excellent communication skills and, of course, your academic
performance. A true passion for the business is also vital.
Summer Analyst
The summer internship
program starts in June with a one-week in-depth training program.
During the first day you’ll get an overview of Citi and our
Investment Banking Division. After that you’ll jump into four days
of classroom training and learn these basic parts of the Summer
Analyst role:
- Fundamentals of valuation
- Citi’s library and information services
- External information systems (e.g. Bloomberg)
- Important financial products commonly used
After Training
Depending on where we need
you and what you’re interested in, you’ll be assigned to an
industry or product coverage group where you’ll focus on financial
analysis and business development.
You will make the most of the summer by taking advantage of all our
programs like the Distinguished Speaker Series, where senior
management host discussions and answer questions. You can also
become involved in the formal mentor program that allows you to
establish connections with Citi’s more experienced bankers to gain
invaluable knowledge. And when it comes to fun, our calendar of
events for the summer will also feature the best of everything your
city has to offer.
