I attended online interview for Senior Java + Microservices Developer, processes involved 4 stages -
1. Codility Test - MCQs + 2 simple Coding Question
2. L1 Interview - Core Technical with Focus on Java Basics, Design Patterns, Concurrency, database and micrroservices.
L2 - similar to L1 but was focused on Business terminology ( Financial Services basic concepts related to cards and payments, trade finance difft standards like ISO 8583, ISO 20022, and SWIFT MT
L3- Managerial. Basic and simple, focused on why you want to join the Citi Bank.
I cleared all the rounds and got confirmation but they said that there is some budget issue though at very beginning I had communicated the expected CTC. They rejected my profile in Business Review phase saying that they got better candidate.

Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Citi (Dublin, Dublin).
Entrevista
I applied for a position and received an email from the recruiter asking for additional details, which I promptly provided. After that, there was complete silence for weeks. I followed up, only to eventually receive a generic rejection email saying I was not shortlisted.
It’s frustrating to be contacted by the company, asked to invest time and effort, and then be left in the dark with no updates or explanation. What’s the point of reaching out if there’s no real process or communication afterward? A brief call or at least a proper follow-up would have shown basic professionalism and respect.
I expected better from a company with such a strong reputation. Unfortunately, the candidate experience did not reflect that.
