Hi everyone, didn't see a thread for 2020 Citi Sophomore Leadership Program, so thought I would start one.
Anyone have any updates? I just applied at the beginning of this week, so didn't know if there were any people who applied earlier and heard back yet. Thanks!

I know last year they held interviews in the fall
Same, applications last year weren’t open until mid-September. Not sure if they’re pushing it forward since they pushed junior recruiting 2020 forward
Do you know if it is mainly diversity?
Probably all diversity
Applied but haven't heard anything back
Target?
When I saw a notification about Citi thought I had got something... turns out it was WSO lol rip.
Anyways I'm non-target, non-diversity. I was under the impression targets apply through OCR/referrals but not sure.
I applied about 3-4 weeks ago and haven't received anything
Still nothing. Anyone know the recruiting process for the program? Hirevue, phone screens, superday?
don't expect to hear until september, applications are not reviewed on a rolling basis
pretty sure it goes straight to phone screen (no hirevue)
Interviews are in September/October. Phone screen and then super day. Expect an offer around October
Has anyone heard anything back?
Honestly if you are nondiversity there isn't even a point tbh. I just threw an application in, but I don't expect anything.
completely wrong, there were >10 nondiversity SLP interns this year. example of only diversity would be cs sophomore program. network instead of just "throwing applications in" - serious advice.
anyone have any updates on this?
Heard nothing, target.
Has anyone heard anything yet?
Talked to analyst on recruiting team, they are reviewing apps and will send out first-round interviews early next week (Columbus Day ish). Superday at end of month. People have already received positions though at non-targets.
Some who were part of the freshman insight event received offers already
targets have offers as well...unless you consider columbia, penn, cornell to not be targets.
When did they hear back?
Does Citi sponsor international students?
Yes, they do. Have a few international friends at Citi.
Just received a phone interview—semi target, but was referred by an MD.
Target, haven’t heard anything
-
Did you hear back yet?
For people that got the 1st round invitation on Friday, did you get a confirmation email yet after filling out the survey? I still haven’t after doing it earlier today
Nothing for me yet
No confirmation either!
Target urm havent heard anything yet
Just received phone interview confirmation! I'm speaking with an analyst form non-target, female like me...wonder if it's matched on purpose.
-
Received as well
how much did you guys network / did someone refer you
Got referred by associate, VP, and MD and havent heard anything yet
are they done sending out the phone interview invites or are they gonna send out another round of them?
another round is otw
is it really? did you speak to a recruiter?
not telling you how I know but believe me if you want lmao, SLP is done in waves thats why some offers are out already
What were phone screens like? Behavioral or technical?
Behavioral
Had a phone screen today. What are the next steps? When do people hear back?
straight to superday
Any idea when?
Did anyone ask what the timeline is of when we hear about superday
I didn't, but I'm pretty sure superdays are this month. If anyone hears back, pls post!
If superdays are this month we should be hearing back fairly soon
I haven't heard anything. Portal still shows "Application Submitted". Any ideas as to what I should expect?
would also like to hear if anyone has any insight
Has anyone heard about a superday?
Did anyone get an email asking them to complete their application after the phone interview?
I just did. Any idea what this may mean?
Ditto.
-
Not yet. Did you upload a cover letter?
spoke to someone at citi who said that the email was sent because a glitch in the system was not generating one of the questions on the form. No indication of superdays- everyone received. But hopefully a sign that invites will be sent soon!
Do we still need to complete the application? Also, did you have a phon screen? Thanks!!
yes to both
Do we need a cover letter as well?
stop asking this dumb shit, jesus
Hey now now let’s be civil, it was an honest question. I’d argue yes for a cover letter.
sounds like super day invites will be sent out within 72 hours per campus recruiter.
Just received a superday invite. Black Non-ivy target student
When’s the superday if you don’t mind me asking?
monday
has anyone else heard back yet?
Haven’t heard..
Just received superday invite. Monday. Hispanic non-ivy target
Haven’t heard anything... I guess we are dinged
Is it related to being black or Hispanic? There’s specific boxes you check in self identification on the app.
Maybe, but either way it seems we’re dinged. I’m non diversity
since it's rotational this year and no longer based on preferences there's no reason why all superday invites wouldn't have been sent out today.
If they're doing multiple superdays, though, they wouldn't notify the second round right now because it gives the second-round students an advantage in having more time. This is strictly my perspective and based on the assumption there will be >1 superdays :)
seeing that it's been over 72 hours I would tend to believe that all superday invites have been sent out. Guess the rest of us have been dinged
-
I was thinking that but I’m uncertain. Thanks for giving me a baby sliver of hope haha. I understand this program is insanely competitive so I can take the L.
Non-Diversity applicant here received a superday
Same*
Could you share some of the stats you have (GPA, internship, extracurriculars)? Thanks
Hey, has anyone received an email from HR after you confirmed the superday?
Not yet
Non-diversity non-target here and my application changed to "application review" a couple days ago. Anyone similar experiences?
Will they notify us in the case that we aren't successful? Considering that all decisions should have been made by now.
How did everyone feel about their interviews? When do we hear back?
Within a week
Anyone hear back?
Nah
Anyone receive a rejection email yet?
Not yet, you?
I feel like we might be dinged since it’s been so long
I feel like we might be dinged since it’s been so long
Bro chill out. They said give them a week. We were all super qualified and it takes time to discern who the best among us were.
That's true, thank ya
I will say, I’m surprised we didn’t hear today though
Yeah same.. maybe there are people who got the invite already?
Sorry I mean offer* and just no one on here.. since they . typically give out offers then rejections
Did they say we will find out Monday for sure?
If we haven't heard anything back since we applied, does that mean we are definitely dinged by now?
youre annoying i hope you get dinged
Why are you mad lmao
LoL- and you will probably work together.
Hopefully today!
i heard thier interviews are way tougher then we thought
Is there a second superday? Has anyone else heard back?
Haven’t heard yet, maybe this afternoon. I think that’s when they called last year.
There's another superday left, 2 have already happened
How did you hear that?
^ are you sure there’s 3 superdays? Did you go to one of them?
Anything?
I haven't heard anything yet
I think offers have already been handed out. Those who haven't heard anything yet (like me) are most likely dinged, considering how late it already is.
Offers are out
How do you know?
Got a call and heard other people got one too
How long did they give you to accept?
2 weeks
Has anyone gotten rejection calls?
Yep I did. I was placed on hold. What about you?
