I have a 9-hour long interview with Deloitte next week. What on earth am I going to do for nine hours? When they called me, they simply called it an interview so I assumed it would have been 1-2 hours

Probably a “super day” where you have different styles of interviews with several people, and an hour in the middle for lunch

That doesn't make any sense. Are you sure they didn't just give you a 'window'?

like

They told me to log in at 9 am and that the assessment will end at 6 pm

funnylike

Aren’t no way. It has to be an error on the invite. Unless they are doing mass interviews for some reason and it’s first in first out within that time frame.

like

I doubt that. The email clearly states the schedule, it isn’t just an invite. I guess I’ll just call the recruiter at this point - I thought it was standard but you guys seem as surprised as I am lol

Who would want to work for such a firm? Imagine what they expect of you if you're actually an employee?

Lol I had like x3 30min interviews as a grad hire. I think you’re doing some super interview day where they’re doing all the interviews in one day. Weird

That’s fucking stupid lol

That's crazy but they probably have 3 interviews plus a technology assessment with a case study.

Anything before that was grad school and I haven’t kept in contact with any professors from over five years ago. What should I do? 😕
