I applied online. I interviewed at Citizens (New York, NY) in Jun 2026
Interview
Multi step process, had to play games in an assessment and do video recordings. Honestly a waste of time. Way too many steps for a part time position. Should have been a simpler process.

Interview
Easy interview—behavioral only, no coding. I genuinely think you have a strong chance. Stay confident, prepare your stories well, and keep working hard. You’ve already done the difficult part by getting the interview.

Question 1
The main thing they asked me was to walk through my resume. Most of the conversation focused on my experience, projects, technical decisions, and past work, with follow-up questions based on what I shared rather than anything unexpected.

Asked a lot of questions about personality and teamwork, challenges, why IB, success story.
One of the games was mental math, the other was matching patterns; overall, not challenging.
