I applied through college or university. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Deloitte (Austin, TX)
Interview
Went through On Campus Recruiting Process. Was selected for the first round on campus. Consisted of a 45 minute Case and a 45 minute fit interview. Case interview also consists of some fit questions.
Case was a pure numbers one. They give you 3 - 4 graphs and ask you to provide insights. The case also involved NPV, IRR calculations etc. The interviewer was a senior consultant with just a year of experience. He put me at ease and it helped with solving the case.
The fit interview was with a director. She basically looked for specific examples. Be prepared with STAR formatted examples.

Question 1
Case was about a Healthcare Provider. They provide you with graphs on various segments and ask you for insights on where to focus. Asked me to evaluate scenarios with NPV analysis.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Deloitte (Columbus, OH)
Interview
There was an initial screening followed by two rounds of 4 virtual interviews (8 total). I began the process in early March and it closed in mid June. I was disappointed in the level of communication by the recruiters. For example, for the second round of interviews I was told they were all behavioral but one was a case study on a very niche industry. I was not prepared and ended up winging it. Overall, the process seemed rather disorganized. Interviewers were often late to the calls. One of the interviewers was distracted the whole time. I had to set up two separate online portals. The fact I had to interview 8 different times just to get a “no” seems ridiculous. I expected better from an organization like Deloitte.

Question 1
They asked a lot of the typical behavioral questions you’d expect. Two of my interviews were case studies.
- Intro of both sides incl. CV presentation
- briefly cultural fit questions like how I like to work with colleagues
- case interview testing structured approach and critical thinking
The process was very structured, beginning with managers, before progressing to a final interview with the partner. The first stages were more analytical, with the final interview being less formal, where it appeared the partner was seeking to finalise the recruitment process.
