New York, New York!!!

Hi,
I am Shila Arias, first year MBA from Peru. I am going to be in NY for the summer working in Citibank in the Consumer Banking Program. This is a 12 weeks program developed for MBAs interested in Consumer Banking, thus they have projects in different divisions such as Retail Bank, Citi Cards, Commercial Banking, Consumer Marketing and Internet Office and Small Business.

We are a group of 15 interns and the program is divided in two parts: an individual project and a group project. I will spend the first 8 weeks working in my project, which I don’t know yet as Citi has just sent the list of projects to be ranked and we are going to be assigned to one of our top choices. I hope I got the one I want!!! Then, we will be assigned to groups of 4 or 5 to work the remaining 4 weeks on different projects, makes me remember MAP!!!

I have been born and raised in Peru, so this is the first time I will work outside my country. I am really excited about this experience as I know I will learn tons of things about consumer banking. Obviously, I am also excited to be in NY for the summer, I think that I will have a lot of things to do, see and shop :)
