I interviewed for associate as an experienced hire but I can tell you that it will be a similar process, just inquiring about different things. For example as a SC you need to have your consulting skills down 100%, be able to start to lead workstreams, problem solve in a creative way, and give direction to associates. Be very familiar with the type of project work you will be doing, and what you have previously done. The partners/directors will want to dig a bit deeper into subject matter than their lower counterparts. Those are mainly behavioral interviews.

I think you’re right, K5

Obviously Deloitte is a bit more exclusive so there’s is probably more difficult! But the other Big 4? Same sh*t

My interviews are not that structured. I am looking for evidence of good experience and maturity

I've completed technical and managerial round at citiustech. It went well.
I'll have my HR round probably on Monday.
On their application they've said they're accepting only upto 60 days notice period candidates. But I'm having 90 days notice period, if I tell them about this 90 days notice period now in HR round will they understand my situation and select me?
Please guide me I really want to get selected in this company and switch from my current employer.

Hadn’t noticed this sub before, and most of the threads are old so thought I’d ask a follow up - how has everyone been handling parenting with public accounting? I’ve got a toddler and my wife is an accountant (industry), and we only have a few immediate family in the country- but they have health concerns. Busy season was rough, things are looking better now as things return to normal. Still working crazy hours if you count the daycare duties on top of utilization targets.
