I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Deloitte (Milan) in Jan 2016
Interview
Common approach: first part based on introductions (interviewer and interviewee), than some fit questions and a rapid case (# of sits for a new fast food with 5 cashiers) followed by some final questions to the interviewer.
However, the interview had a really bad approach interrupting continuously the interview for calling some colleagues and being sarcastic for the majority of the time.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why consulting?
Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
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.

Question 1
They asked me why I wanted to join Deloitte and how my skills and previous experience would help me succeed as an Associate in Dubai.
It was a two stage interview. First the managers interview which also serves as the panel interview. Then the partners interview. Ideally, it is mostly brief. it can be one or more partner.

Overall, it was a good experience. Suggest preparing well and being honest to align with the company’s values and long-term goals. The questions vary depending on the role probably. Also suggest preparing your own questions, those are always important.
