I applied online. I interviewed at Deloitte in Aug 2022
Interview
Several rounds of interviews. They actually higher a lot of new associates (+10) but also very many people apply. As expected they have accounting scenario questions. Final interview (formality) with a partner.

Question 1
You could work in a startup or a relaxed corporate office. Why do you want to start your career in the high-pressure environment of a Big 4 firm?
The initial interview was on phone call since I was based in different location. They have said that they will take another technical interview soon. The interviewer mainly asked me questions about my work experience and also informed me about the requirements about the job i was applying for.
Amazing interview experience. Very hard. Be prepared and highly recommend lots of case studies to practice. I had five rounds of interviews and the last one was a super day.

Question 1
Tell us about a time you solved an ambiguous problem
The interview process was professional and well-organized. It started with an initial HR screening where they asked about my background, availability, salary expectations, and interest in Deloitte. After that, I had a technical and behavioral interview with the team. They asked about my previous experience, how I handle pressure, and how I would work with clients in a fast-paced consulting environment. Overall, the difficulty was average.
