A firm im pretty interested in is super insistent on doing an in person interview during office hours. They want to do it towards the end of lunch hour. It's super inconvenient for me and will likely make me run late for other things and my partner has things going on at that hour where I need to be available. Not sure how to handle as this firm is dead set on an in person interview.

Interviewing for a role I am qualified for. During the second round of interviews (4.5 hours) one partner could not make his time slot. The firm now wants to schedule a third round of interviews with the partner that missed his time and at the request of one of the interviewers in my second round, multiple other folks I’d be directly working with for a robust 2 hours+ third round. Any reason they’d add the new interviewers other than doubting my candidacy?

My partner is interviewing at Deloitte (healthcare team). Any pointers on how to respond to ‘why Deloitte’ question? I feel like all Big Four are almost the same for outsiders and you need to join first to evaluate the ‘people and culture’ fit.

A v20 firm has put me through 3 rounds of interviews with about 12 people in the group. The main partner wants to talk to me a 3rd time now and my recruiter tells me the interview is over and now it’s just discussion, what’s it going to take for me to make the move. I have a few concerns that I wouldn’t raise on an interview (such as, I’m 7 years experienced in x y z but this firm does a b c, which is similar to x y z, but still not the same). I’d learn fast but also nervous. Do I bring this up?

Hello - any recent Deloitte interview experiences that you can share if it ended in an offer? I completed interviews prior to thanksgiving break and I received a thank you response from the partner and I received a follow up email from the internal recruiter that I would get an up date early this week the day of the interview. I did not ask for the recruiter update so I’m thinking it’s a good sign. The interviews were very conversational and enjoyable.

What is a typical time for an offer to be extended?

Not a posted position so I’m the only candidate. Am I am being impatient?
