Typical case prep- lots of resources online, personally I like the Yale series on YouTube. Can work right alone with the video and see their methods.

For questions to ask- be genuine and ask about things you’re actually interested. We can tell when you’re asking questions just to ask questions

Just tell the partner you’re Deloitted to meet him/her.

OP, for one stay away from the condescending tone of your question during the interview. Huge turn off.

Know that partners are masters of BS (part of their job requirement), so they can smell BS a mile away.

Mention that Deloitte is technically harder to get into than Harvard. They’ll eat it right up

All about behavioral fit it will be very conversational. You can ask for concrete examples for culture topics that are stated out. In my interview there was the typical question that I should talk about a situation with adifficult colleague. After I made my points I asked what he would do in situations with difficult people and how he solved conflicts in the past

Great!

How did it go?

CFP study programs:

I'm a little confused on Danko - does he offer a self-study option for the coursework requirement? On his website it looks like each module has a 4-day virtual class which I wouldn't be able to attend due to working full time. Does this program also include self-study material, and the classes are just supplementary/optional? I was also looking at Dalton for self-study and Danko for test prep. Thoughts?

TIA
