Dear AlixPartners 🐟, if you reach final interview (this is my eighth, with MD), does it mean you are almost there (i.e. fit test), or does everyone reach final interview regardless of the previous results?

I did 17 interviews with Deloitte over 12 mos (direct admit Partner-MD)

Most people get 1 screen and then no further. People are dropped from each stage as you move through (8 seems high, it’s usually 5or 6). If you make it to the final MD interview, that’s usually the last one (sometimes there’s one more with the head of hiring)

Not a guarantee to move to offer (especially in these very weird times), but I’d say you have a better than 50/50 shot.

8? That’s nuts. What level? They are wasting your time. If they don’t know by now if you are hired, they don’t know how to interview.

Pwc1 - see AP1 note above. Normally we have an in person round (like most firms) with 4 interviews including a case. Those still need to be done but it is very difficult to block off consecutive slots to allow for it.
