Citco interview questions

I attended an interview for a Senior Fund Accounting position that lasted close to 50 minutes. While the role itself appeared technically relevant, the interviewers’ communication style was unprofessional and concerning. Early in the interview, when asked how my day was going, I mentioned that I was managing tight month-end deliverables. Instead of discussing motivation or career goals, I was abruptly asked, “Then why are you attending this interview?” The tone of this question felt dismissive and unnecessary. Throughout the interview, I was repeatedly told my voice was “not audible.” I attempted to adjust my headphones, but the issue persisted. To allow the interview to continue, I spoke louder. After nearly 48 minutes of discussion, I mentioned that my throat had become dry due to speaking loudly. The response I received was, “This is not a public forum to shout,” followed by “You have to adjust your mic; that’s your issue.” These remarks were delivered in a rude and unsupportive manner, rather than with basic professionalism or empathy.
