Applied online and got a call from HR. After initial screening, 1st round of interview was scheduled. The position was for application test lead. The first question asked by the interviewer was: do you have experience in banking domain. As I said no, it seems he just took interview for the sake of taking and completed the interview in 15 minutes. Got a rejection email after a day.

There is a big disconnect from the JD and the interview at Citi. This is my 2nd experience. They wanted someone for automation but not a single question from team leader perspective, automation. Just few scripted questions they have. Asking fresher level questions to 9 years experienced person. Not sure what Citi is looking for.

Do you have banking domain experience?
