th

of October and I really enjoyedtalking to you, Chris and the other people from the Technology division in London.I am currently undertaking an MSc in Engineering with Finance at University CollegeLondon and I have a Bachelors degree with honours in Mechatronic Engineering fromthe University of Manchester. While I have a technical background, I have always been interested in business and finance, as proven by my choice of a Masters degreeand my work experience. Working as an Assistant Sales Manager at Salhiya TowerCompany, starting my own ecommerce business, and undertaking financial moduleslike Financial Institutions and Markets at UCL, have given me the prerequisite mix ofknowledge, experience and enthusiasm required for this role.As an International Student with a degree in Engineering and a strong inclinationtowards the financial sector, I am looking to work for a global organisation with achallenging and diverse work environment. With its remarkable global presence and adynamic client list, Citi is one such global employer. From helping a farmer in a thirdworld country to save for his children’s education, to managing multi-million dollartrades for the world’s largest hedge funds, Citi is an inspiring institution that caters tothe needs of all. By attending campus events such as the recent Tech Talk event heldin a pub in Central London, I was also able to meet the employees working at Citi andfind out more about the company and its culture. I am now confident that Citi is anideal choice for my career aspirations.The Graduate Technology Analyst role is well suited to me as it is the perfect platform to combine my skills and primary interests. Citi’s velocity app and the livedemonstration of a real trade shown at the Tech Talk inspired me to be part of such ateam that creatively uses technology towards building more efficient and smarterfinancial markets. With a technical background and work experience in sales andentrepreneurship, I believe I will be able to add significant value to the technologydivision and make substantial contributions.
