Hey guys,
I recently cleared 1st round of interview for data scientist role in Deloitte. 2nd round is with the director and most probably it will be a case study based interview. Anyone have idea, what kind of questions should I expect?

I am so beyond ready to leave my current job, but can’t yet, since bonuses are paid out in January. 😬

In the meantime, I’ve applied to a lot of similar roles (slightly higher) but have not heard - good or bad - from any. Is it common for companies to slow down hiring in December because of Q4 rush, people on holiday, etc.?
