What they actually ask

The question shapes this round uses. Larpy does not read these out. It builds each one from your own resume, because the generic version is the one you have already rehearsed.

  • Tell me about yourself, walk me through your resume.
  • Why Deloitte, and why this service line specifically?
  • What do you know about Deloitte, and what sets us apart from the other Big Four?
  • Where do you see yourself in three to five years?

What this round is judged on

  • Motivation · specific, non-generic reasons for Deloitte and this service line
  • Background fit · relevant experience for the role and level
  • Communication · clear, concise self-presentation
  • Aptitude for the role · signals of readiness

What happens in each stage
Application + resume screen
Standard ATS submission and resume review. Not simulated.
Online assessment / job simulation (campus & some pipelines)
Game-style or scenario-based assessment; common for campus/UK early-careers. Not confirmed on an official US page and not a spoken round, so not simulated.
First-round behavioral / competency interview (spoken)
Phone or live video with a recruiter or manager, 30-45 min. Structured 'tell me about a time' questions plus motivation/fit. Simulated.
Final round / interview day (behavioral portion, spoken)
One to two back-to-back interviews with senior managers/partners. For consulting this day also holds the case (excluded); the behavioral/fit half is simulated.
Decision, offer, and onboard
Written offer typically within one week of the final interview. Not simulated.

Sources

Built from what Deloitte publishes about its own process. No leaked question lists. The questions you get are generated against your own resume, so they are not from anyone else's interview.

  • Verbatim example behavioral questions; STAR method instruction; competencies assessed (track record, communication, leadership and teaming, aptitude); firm draws (impact, celebrated for who you are, curiosity).

  • "Expect two to three rounds of interviews, via either telephone, video, or in person"; behavioral/technical/case mix depending on role; funnel stages; offer within one week of final interview.

  • Describes a LIVE synchronous video interview ('treat your video interview as though you are in the room with the other person'), contradicting a universal one-way/recorded round.

Sources last checked . Hiring loops change, so this date is the honest limit on everything above.
