I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Deloitte (Charlotte, NC) in Jun 2019
Interview
Two phone screens. First one was a lightning round of 20 questions. The front line recruiters ask questions they read from a script. You can easily pass this interview if you give the answers they are clearly looking for (sad I know). The second round was labeled a "culture fit" interview. The interviewer admitted she did not know what she was doing or why she was involved with the interviewing process. We had a nice talk and then she turned me down. Then I had 4 more interviews (after getting turned down on a culture fit interview). I do not know where I am in the process anymore and I don't think they know either. What a mess. I indicate this process is very difficult (below) because I don't fit the cookie cutter mold. I think they are looking for clones and minions and I am a unique character. I'm a true change agent and have been consulting and generating incredible client results for many years...but not the Deloitte way.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Have you ever had a "trouble maker" in the crowd during a facilitation? If so, how did you handle that and what did you learn?
Thorough with good communication throughout the process. I first had a phone call with an initial screener. Then the hiring director, VP and MD. A few rounds. very standard questions. Usual prep required.
Clear interview process. Steps well explained. Candidate required to present a business case which felt a bit like providing free consulting. They were very good on p[roviding feedback ion interview performance and also getting back to candidate within the timescale they had promised

Initial interview was with an internal recruiter. Discussed my expectations in terms of role and salary. Went through my experience. Unclear about next steps, especially timelines.
