I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Deloitte in Sep 2011
Interview
There seems to be a disconnect between HR of different entities within teh firm. You can get an interview offer from one and a call from another HR person next day to do a phone interview for a different role in a related entity. Creates confusion for candidate. Interview process was smooth and well organized. I arrived at the location. Reception was warm. First interviewer conducted technical/business acumen test. Presented a case study, a bid we need to respond to and what solution design I would propose and why. Really liked that. Next met with several senior leaders and practice leads for general business acumen and industry dicsussion. Went well. However, they kept asking me why I wante dto leave current firm, since I told them I was not a disgruntled employee trying to quit current job, which was the truth but looking for something new. Guess they could not buy that. They cited that as reason for not hiring me. Strange!

Here is a RFP bid we need to respoind to. What is your proposed solution? Describe components and justify choice of technology and processes?
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
