Hi, I was told today that I had passed all the rounds of interview for a Senior Consultant role at Deloitte and that they would love for me to join their team but they can’t give an offer at the moment because senior leadership need to take stock/look at data points/measure how successful programmes are so far, only when that is finished I will ‘very likely’ get an offer but it could be days/weeks/months. Has anyone else been told this or know what this means?

Was in the same situation essentially and took 2 months to get formal offer. This was a few weeks ago when I received formal. Which business area?

It’s not particularly common and we are in unusual times, but the sales cycle in consulting can be unpredictable. You can go from being 90% confident you’ve won a piece of work that needs 50 resources we don’t currently have, to being told the client’s canned the entire project within days.

This just means that after the interview they aren’t 100% sold and want to look at other candidates first. They could come back and give you an offer or they could also never reach out again.
