First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Deloitte.
Business Transformation Consultant
So, the Deloitte interview involved three chats: two business case ones with a Senior Manager and a Partner, and then an HR chat. They were all about an hour long, done on Teams, in English, but they said I could switch to French if I needed to.
- Could you share an example of a difficult project you undertook and detail your approach to managing it?
- Recount a situation where you were responsible for handling several stakeholders who had opposing priorities.
- Illustrate a time when you had to rapidly adjust to a major change.
SAP Consultant
I went through 2 interviews with Deloitte. The first interview was mainly about cultural fit, discussing strengths, weaknesses, and motivations for joining Deloitte. The second interview was competency-based, and since I was a graduate then, we focused on my dissertation project and the skills gained from my degree. Both interviews were quite relaxed and mainly involved self-reflection.
- Can you share a weakness of yours and explain how we could help you with it?
- What is one weakness you have, and what support could we provide for you to overcome it?
Fair Value Analyst
The interview process for the Valuation Analyst position at Deloitte was broken down into several stages. After an initial contact from HR, I had a first interview that mainly focused on my experience, my motivations, and my general understanding of the role. Then, I had a more technical interview with team members. During this stage, I was asked technical questions about company valuation (like DCF methods, multiples, WACC, basic corporate finance principles) and some questions about Excel and valuation models. Besides technical questions, I was also asked reasoning and problem-solving questions, designed to assess analytical skills and speed in finding logical solutions. Overall, the process was structured, professional, and aimed at evaluating both quantitative skills and the candidate's way of thinking.
- Tell me about DCF
- How would you value a start-up with no revenues
Data Engineer
I had to do this coding project on Palantir Foundry to show I knew the platform. It was like building an ETL pipeline and was a take home assignment that I could take a few days to do. Then I had a technical interview with a manager, and after that a behavioral interview with a Principal. They were pretty easy, just talking about why you'd use certain tech, stuff you did before, and problems you had.
- Given a txt dataset, could you write code to parse it, put it into datasets, and then use that data to produce visualizations of trends, etc?
- Can you discuss why you'd use certain technologies?
- Tell me about projects you've done in the past.
