Hello, I got to the final round of interviews for Deloitte’s discovery internship and I’m pretty nervous because I have/had no other interviews and I want this to go well. If you guys could give me any tips for the interview including dress code (I have a nose piercings and I think I’ll take it out for the interview) and how to best answer their questions. Thank you!

Def take it out. Just wear a suit and tie. Better to be overdressed. And just be yourself. We all want to work with normal people who can socialize to some degree

Congrats. I read the news that Big Four no longer hires entry level positions because they have been outsourced to India.

There is zero possibility that is true

Be as professional as you can. Be sure to join from a strong internet connection if possible to avoid connection issues. Have a decent/non junky background for your video call if possible, or at least blur it - it may be unfair but I’ve heard candidates judged negatively for joining from their car or dorm room with junk piled up in background. Be on time! Good luck!

I like to use my computer camera ahead of time to see how I look with various backgrounds in my house blur/unblur etc. that way you are ready to present a great image in frame. Log into the meeting a few min early but wait to ask to join, this will give you a moment to view yourself in screen of whatever video hosting technology they have and ensure the best appearance

Take out the piercing. Listen well to every question. Be truthful in all your answers, don't embellish, think about what skills and knowledge you can bring to Deloitte and offer that, prepare some good questions ahead of time that you can ask about the work experience you can get. If they ask you scenario based questions, remember that they're not only interested in the answers, but how you would arrive at the answers, especially if the fact pattern of the question isn't 100% clear.

I'm looking to find a job like the Forward Deployed Engineer role Palantir Technologies in the UK.

I have become hooked on finding a job that involves solving the kinds of problems they presented during their interviews. Although I got to the final round my performance anxiety got the better of me (I think I wanted the job a bit too much...). I will reapply after working in a similar company.

Is it "deep tech" / "data science" or "smart enterprise" that they're doing? Any advice welcome.
