I applied online. I interviewed at Citi in May 2026
Interview
Applied online. Was asked to schedule an assesment in a 2 day period. Prepare for 1 day and gave the karat interview on the next. Karat interview was good. I cleared all testcases for 3 coding questions and answered 2/4 mcq questions in 50 mins. I was positive I did well but next day got a rejection email. Dont understand what more they expect?!! I guess a PERFECT candidate.

Question 1
Debugging errors and fixing code snippet. Python MCQ questions and o/p prediction.
Design and scenario based questions, not straight from theory or books. Keep your concepts clear in programming and skills for developer roles. I applied for senior role, more questions they were expecting were in distributed architecture, complex KARAT coding etc.
