What I liked

I really liked having a high level of responsibility and accountability in a corporate setting and being able to add value in multiple ways

What I wish was different

Some days were fast paced and work heavy while others were slow and often left me with little to no tasks throughout the day

Advice

Be ready to work, learn, and be creative. Sometimes companies take the interns for granted but being creative and strategic will come in handy. Be passionate and intellectually curious. Always have a notepad and always look for an opportunity to learn something new

Digital Product Management Summer Analyst

June - August 2017 • New York City, NY

What I liked

I worked in Citi's Global Consumer Bank in the Consumer & Digital Experience group as a Digital Product Manager for the summer, using design, technology, and consumer insights to improve, manage, and continue building the product feature I was on. I liked being in this part of the bank – the culture in the consumer bank is very different from the culture on the institutional client side, and I enjoyed being able to work cross-functionally with internal teams like Citi FinTech, product marketing, design, anti-money laundering, and fraud, as well as external agencies for UI/UX design and program & brand strategy.

Advice

Large corporations like Citi will oftentimes use abbreviations to describe their teams or functions, and it's important – if you become a Summer Analyst in the Global Consumer Bank – to reach out to someone who works at Citi (maybe an alum) to go over the teams with you during assignment placement in the spring so that you can choose a team that will give you the opportunity to build a skill set that you want to leave the summer with. If you're interested in the digital & innovation space, another thing to keep in mind is that things in this department at a large financial service firm tend to move slower than other companies in the tech space – don't get too frustrated if you aren't launching products left and right during your time in the summer. 10 weeks is not enough time to get through even a portion of a product roadmap, so sit tight and learn as much as you can from as many people as possible.
