Why does Citi seem to hire external people for roles more than internal?

@OP

Many posters here have posted and commiserated about the Non-existent Internal Mobility BullSh!t that Sh!tibank keeps trying to sell.

The barriers to entry and standards are Lower for External Job Applicants at any Company-Employer. So you're better off Not wasting your time, effort and false hopes applying for Internal Jobs.

You'll get dozens, hundreds or even thousands of automated Rejection emails, something along the lines of:

Dear Job Applicant-Svcker:

We want to let you know that we won't be moving forward with your job application for the role of [ Insert Job Title & Requisition Number Here You Got Rejected For ].

But we're still very much interested in you and your internal development [ BullSh!t ], and we're very proud to have you on our team [ BullSh!t ].

We'd love for you to take a look at other job opportunities on our Career Mobility Fantasy Site to see if there's another position that might interest you.

Best regards,
Citi Global Talent Acquisition

because we are the worst performing big bank in terms of valuation and destroying shareholder value? There's many reasons for that of course, but talent strategy would be an enabler.

My experience is the opposite - most C14 and above roles seem to have internal candidates lined up either known to the hiring manager or known to someone else who knows the hiring manager. Plus, lateral hiring internally means Sh1tty can get away with no raise.

Yes, Internal resources always busy in pulling others down, they are not capable of think out of box because they always busy in politics.

External hires like myself are generally more capable is my reasonable assessment..
