Applying for experienced consultant at Deloitte. Finished the final round and was told everything was great, but I need to sit tight for 3-6 weeks. Should I expect an offer at the end of the “freeze”?

Deloitte’s utilization is down atm so I think they are trying to be more careful about not bringing someone in until they can be staffed almost immediately

like

With the freeze, is there a concern about Deloitte going back on verbal offers? Or is it just a matter of being patient for the written offer?

like

I hope they don’t go back on their verbal offer. Would have thought they would plan hiring better and not get people’s hopes up 😒

like

What’s with the freeze? Do you have a niche skillset? Makes it seem like they’re hiring you for a potential proposal and are waiting to see if it goes through before making the offer Seems strange for a firm like Deloitte. I was hired and was on the bench for almost 5 months there

like

I was also an experienced hire (SC Level) and I started the interview process in May 2017 and didn’t get my offer until mid-September 2017. This lines up with what the other posters said regarding the freeze and bonus payouts. Good luck!

I'm in the same boat, was told Deloitte is on hiring freeze, I'm just following up every couple weeks now to let them know I'm still around.

I’m hoping it’s up soon. I’m anxious to get an offer and start there

Hi 🐠!

Im current at EY in a consulting group that does not focus on deals, but have completed few due diligence type engagements. We focus mostly on ODD (Operational Due Diligence) for private equity firms. I really want to make it into IB. I have an interview for a Valuation and Opinions Role. Would that help in transitioning in as an IB Analyst? I would have a substantial pay cut (100K to 85K - excluding bonus). My current experience has not been seen as valuable by recruiters.
