This entry-level role supports Citi customers, likely handling inquiries, account servicing, transaction-related requests and issue resolution through phone or other service channels. Requirements typically include a diploma or degree, strong spoken and written English, Mandarin fluency, basic computer skills and good attention to detail. Experience in banking, customer service or a shared-services environment is advantageous but may not be essential.

Job opportunities are available in banking operations, shared services, technology, electronics, manufacturing, tourism, healthcare and education.
