What is the interview process like at Deloitte for a role like an Audit/Assurance Associate? Do they ask any technical related Accounting questions or is it mainly all behavioral and seeing if you are a fit for the culture of the firm?

If you’re a campus hire then 95% chance there will be no technical questions. If you’re an experienced associate then I can see some basic ones i.e what are the JEs to record a sale

No technical questions for experienced hires. But they would ask about your previous experiences and the most complex audit issues that you have faced in your past job.

Yup, AS1 covered... most B4 is entirely personality and culture fit. Although as an experienced senior I did have a SM at D ask me two super basic questions because “they were asked of her back in the day”
1. What’s the natural balance of AR
2. If you are adding to a receivable account, what would the other account type likely be in the transaction

To be an experienced senior you need to know this? Lol sign me up

I don’t think people will ask technical question to a campus hire. I wasn’t getting technical questions when interviewed experienced senior position either

Well if they ask about your hashtag usage, you will nail that portion of the exam 👍

If you’re a campus hire, it should be all behavioral. Getting an offer now a days is completely determined by if the interview people like you. I’ve helped with recruiting over the years and I’ve even seen the HR docks used to give out offers. I’ve seen partners write “had a great convo, seems cool. I recommend an offer.” Ive also seen “felt like I was leading the convo and had to really strain to get answer. Lack communication skills. No offer.”

This person is 20 years my senior. In the same conversation this person advocated for me on a separate matter & complimented my performance. I am not sure what course of action to take at this time.
