I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Deloitte (Auckland, ) in Mar 2018
Interview
Online application --> Logical Reasoning / Problem Solving Test --> Video Interview --> In-person Interview --> Offer
Online application was fairly straightforward, and do not require mini essays like some other Big Four (from memory). Logical Reasoning test was two hours and tested reading comprehension and mental math.
Video interview is the most daunting part - practice answering 'behavioural fit' style questions in a video interview setting by getting comfortable with talking about yourself (monologue style) for two minutes straight. It's also particularly weird to have a timer constantly counting down. Most applicants (even successful ones) recall having a really awkward time here, so don't sweat it if you screw up but try not to.
In person interview consisted of 15 minutes small chat with a consultant, mostly asking about university pursuits / what you're studying. Nothing too major, probably just to check you have a basic level of social skills. After that, 45 minutes to do a case interview. In my case the previous interviewee ran over time so I had about 35 minutes instead. However, this was accounted for.
Case interview was presented to a partner which finished off by asking a bunch of behavioural fit questions.
I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Deloitte (Hamburgo) in Jun 2018
Interview
- 4 Wochen gewartet auf eine Antwort
- Anschließend Telefoninterview mit Brainteaser (Schätzen)
- 2 Wochen später Bewerbertag
Bewerbertag:
- Selbstpräsentation via Flipchart von 2 min mit 5 min Bearbeitungszeit
- Case Study von 15min mit einer 30min Bearbeitungszeit in einer Gruppe von 3 Leuten
Meinung/Tipps zum Bewerbertag:
- Lernt die gängigen Innovationsmethoden gut auswendig (Business Model Canvas, Design Thinking) und benutzt diese bei Fragen im Einzelgespräch und Case Study. Ich wurde genau aufgrund dieser Tatsache abgelehnt, weil ich die Methoden nicht aus dem Bauch heraus anwenden konnte. Anschließend wurden mir mangelhafte Kenntnisse im Bereich Innovation vorgeworfen, was natürlich absurd ist.
- Fragen, die im Einzelinterview gestellt wurden, waren unklar und schlecht formuliert
- Manager versucht zu irritieren und akzeptiert nur seine Lösung auf eine Frage - Macher Mentalität
