Here are some of the interview questions that I encountered yesterday during my interview with Deloitte in Damansara uptown. This was the post of Audit Assistant.

Why are you interested to work here?

How much do you know about the related field?

Are you willing to travel?

Are you willing to work late?

How do you know about the company?

Do you have any friends working in other big 4 accounting firm?

Have you heard about Deloitte from any where else?

Where do you see yourself in 2 years time?

Where do you see yourself in 5 years time?

Where do you see yourself after 5 years?

To be honest this was my first interview and I was really really nervous that I blurted things out before really thinking much about it. But it was a good experience.

The assessment tests are as follows:

1. English Essay Test in say 15 to 20 minutes (I got "Yourself". Had problems writing since I haven't written essays in like years?)

2. 100 MCQ English Test in say 15 to 20 minutes (This one tests your English. Unless your English is perfect or extremely good, you might have some hard times for a few questions)

3. 30 to 50 IQ Test (Can't remember exactly how many. Couldn't finish everything so I had to start shooting the answers)

There were 5 people including myself who were there and everyone had a tough time with the IQ test.

I think my chances of getting through are pretty slim. But it's over already. I am now preparing for my interview tomorrow with Russel Bedford Malaysia.

Good luck for those who wish to apply for Deloitte.

By the way can someone give me some guidance how to answer "Why did you choose audit?" and "Why did you choose this firm?"

Kind of struggling a little on these 2 questions. Thanks in advance.

I know it's a little off topic but I really need a quick response.

Thanks.. It'll do

Btw if they asked you if you have applied for other big 4 firms, say no even though you did apply. Use this if you were rejected by the other big 4 firms. They don't want to be hiring rejects now do they?

I don't know really.. Cause my brother-in-law(he's working in Deloitte) helped me to submit my resume to the audit partner. So ytd he asked me what did I say to the audit partner when I was asked if I have applied any other big 4 firm. I said no and he told me that he bumped into the audit partner and he also told him that I didn't apply for other big 4 firm.

What went through my mind when I was asked if I applied any other big 4 firm was "If I say yes and say that I got rejected, the interviewer will probably think that I am of low quality standard or something".

So I just said no. But anyways let's just wait for the results. No point worrying about it since you've already gone through the interview.
