Summer 2018 Citigroup Summer Sophomore Leadership Program

Hey guys, I just got an e-mail from Citigroup replying to my submitted application for the Sophomore Summer Leadership Program. It is just asking "to preference your business line of interest." I'm assuming the fact that I got an e-mail back is a good thing. Did a lot of people get this, or is this a part of the interview process for Citi to breakdown people and see who they want for next summer? Does anyone have any advice on this process? This is my first time really dealing with something like this.

Citi Summer Internship for Sophomores Group Preference

During the application process for the Citi sophomore leadership program, candidates must submit their group preferences. According to our users, it seems that this step is the next step past the resume screen. However, you are not guaranteed an interview because you receive an email.

cgained:
I believe that the email is a "second-step" past a resume screening. I have a couple friends who applied as well and they didn't get emails.

kcwelch5184:
From what I heard everyone who made it through basic resume screening receives the email.

Did you hear directly from your interviewer or from HR/Recruiting ? (I'm trying to understand whether it depends on your interviewer to notify you or all the superday invites have been sent by HR at the same time)
