Trade very carefully. Companies have been shameless in withdrawing offers. Plus generally it’s last in first out kind of thing in layoffs.
I’m not even sure there are real openings at this point
Depends on the function… risk / compliance is always hiring
Wdym down the drains?
Run as fast as you can! It’s a regular circus at the moment.
Citi and wells are in flux now. Jp is hiring and BofA frozen.
Right now just stay where you are unless it’s a big problem
Definitely do not join. Such roles can be de duped across the org
I am too. AVP role ICG/TTS. Saw and email from Mike Whitaker that they’re going to absorb some people and make it all O&T. The woman I interviewed w literally reports to the CFO. Was telling me all of these things about planned growth, larger budget. Hoping I can get into it. Already interviewed 3 times for the role of 4 scheduled interviews. Fingers crossed.
Best of luck to you
It’s called churn and burn. You are good to them for your use and age until you are not.
Which group were you interviewing with? If it’s Regulatory related you should be ok.
All else are waiting to see- consensus is that some Directors and MDs will be shown the door. Lower positions should be fine
For me, it’s a CCB Associate - front office role. I’ve waited almost 1 month after final interview. HR replied me instantly after I emailed her, asked me to wait for Hc approval, I’m so nervous right now. Should I be worried about it?
I’ve saw at least 3 posts complained about citi not releasing offer after final interview
How is this odd? Citi announced sweeping layoffs yesterday. They’re not gonna fire hundreds (if not more) and then hire folks
Sometimes we interview just to keep a candidate pool active, but it doesn’t mean we are hiring right away
I’m sorry you feel that way and I hate we do that. I was trying to help a few friends get jobs but then turns out the recruiting manager was just trying to get a feel for what was out there because there was a hiring freeze
Also one of my friends had some issues and nobody wanted to tell him, so I told him off record. I guess I was scared I’d get sued too but at the same time people deserve to know they’re not getting the job.
Something to talk about at the interview
I asked and interviewer didn’t like it.
Goodluck! It may likely be a different group. Where are you interviewing?
It’s because the company is restructuring
Best of luck!
How is the QA department are they in a hiring freeze?
It's different departments. I've heard that they are planning to cut Wealth Management. As for tellers, or bank officers - I am helping three different branches right now because they are seriously understaffed.
That's odd, in Jane's communications doesn't she say that a large focus is on growing the wealth management business.
She never said whether it's globally or nationally.
I always assumed it was national since they sold smith barney during the financial crisis.
