I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Deloitte (Porto, Oporto) in May 2025
Interview
It had some technical questions as well as the normal expected ones. They ask you to make a pitch about yourself first and go on from there. The interview with the business partner was not technical though, mostly a conversation between normal people regarding career and development. They ask you specifically why you chose Deloitte over the other big4s and also the reasons why they need to choose you over your colleagues.
Other Audit Associate interview reviews for Deloitte
Online interviews with a lot of technical questions with zero to less information from the resume provided by candidates, but it was quite a good experience overall. Need to prepare a lot before the interview.
Apply through Deloitte Careers but its better if you connect with HR personnel through linkedin. HR will then call you informing you about the position and usual introduction questions. Afterwards, two rounds of interview from HR, then one with audit heads. It takes about two to three weeks from initial interview to Job offer meeting.
Pretty good overall! the interviewer was very warm and polite and made me feel really welcome. it was a good interview, i thought i would land the role but they picked someone with experience aligned with big4.
