I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Deloitte (Rosslyn, VA) in Nov 2012
Interview
I received an email from a recruiter who found my resume on Monster. After a a phone conversation, I was setup for an interview for the following Thursday at their Rosslyn office. Interview was conducted by 4 different employees, with each of them talking to me for 30 minutes.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
None of the questions were particularly hard. Though one of the interviewers grilled me on my knowledge of OWASP and the Certification and Accreditation cycle, it wasn't too difficult.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Deloitte (Philadelphia, PA)
Interview
First round interview in Philadelphia office.
Interview process is decently different enough from other major consulting firms (i.e. McKinsey, Bain and BCG) that I'll mostly highlight them here. When I arrived in the office they did not give me a description of the people I was meeting with that day. The first interview was one for fit. They seemed to care *a lot* more about the Why Deloitte? question than any other aspect of the interview. Other quesitons were basically normal.
The second interview is a normal case format.
Hope this helps!

Question 1
They asked several versions of the "Why Deloitte?" question. Make sure you know what makes the firm stand in both among consulting firms and in your mind.
I applied online. The process took 2+ months. I interviewed at Deloitte (Chicago, IL) in Sep 2012
Interview
I applied online through a job portal and had to wait for almost 2 months for the initial call from the recruiter, thing moved pretty quick after that. Initial call was for 10 mins where my resume was discussed after which I had 30 mins technical round on phone next day where my technical experience was discussed. After that I was called to the Chicago office within a weeks’ time for 3 face to face interviews. One was based on case study where the Sr. Manager wanted me to explain him how should we prepare for a client meeting before we discuss the project plan in detail with the client. Also, he wanted me explain project implementation methodologies and importance of change management. The second interview was with the partner for the core consulting skills. He was interested in knowing my team lead/managerial experience. He was straight forward with the expectations and it was a healthy 50 mins discussion where he explained me what was expected from me as a Deloitte professional. I was too tired for the third round which was for Technical Focus, it was a telephonic call. All the three interviewers were very polite and made me very comfortable in the whole process. By the end of the whole process I was exhausted talking for more than 3 hours (each interview was for 45 mins but they all ended up close to 50-55 mins). I left the office at 12:00 PM and 12:30 PM I got a mail asking my salary expectation as they want to put an offer, I replied as per industry standards. It took them a week to get back to me, but the offer was exactly meeting my expectations. I am happy with the overall process, people and transparency and the way the whole event got concluded.
