Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
As the internship progressed I was given more responsibility once I had shown I could be trusted to get the job done accurately, although there is always someone to check your work.
As people took vacation time, more responsibility was given to the interns.

Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend Citi to a friend?
Yes
What advice would you give to others applying to Citi
Don't force yourself to try to be what you think they are looking for. As long as you are genuinely interested in the sector (and can show it some way), then just be authentic. Enthusiasm and work ethic go a long way.
