I applied through college or university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Citi (New York, NY) in Oct 2015
Interview
I applied through campus recruiting and was invited to the on-site interview. The process was very smooth, and most of the interview questions are resume based, where the interviewer ask some questions he feels interested about your past experience. At the end of the interview there is a short math problem to solve, which is not hard.
medium difficulty, asked regular quant questions, math, computer science and all that, regular quant questions, math, computer science and all that, not that difficult, rejected by them in the end

Interview
It was a first round with the hiring manager who mostly asked behavioral questions. He described the role and what they do. Overall the questions he asked were trivial like bond market trading hours. I didn’t know about the sessions after the regular trading session.
