Anyone interviewing with Monitor Deloitte Germany?

Hi there!

Congrats! This sounds like an assessment centre type of experience.

Try to squeeze as much out of Google as possible and also reach out to the recruiter for a high-level structure of what to expect during the assessment centre day (they won't tell you the exact exercises, but at least you'll find out some things). 

The assessment centre that I was part of was in London, for the advisory branch of a Big4 company. The entire process lasted for about five hours or so. If I remember correctly, these were the main elements during the day:

1. Meet and greet. We were a group of about 8 candidates. We were given the chance to introduce ourselves to each other and then to the recruiting team. We were given an overview of what will happen during the day.
2. Written test. I don't remember what it contained, but I assume it was the standard: numericals, inductive reasoning, verbal reasoning, etc.
3. Joint case done as a team. This was the longest part, requiring us to solve a case together in a group of four or so, agree on the conclusions, ask for data, create a presentation and then present to the recruitment team.
4. Lunch. You can imagine what happened here :)
5. Role-play. They had hired actual actors to play demanding or angry clients. We were meant to interact with them, present something, convince them or obtain additional information.
6. Q&A. This was a short Q&A at the end if we had any other questions about the firm or the recruitment process.
7. We were then sent home and we got a call the next day with the result.

Best,
Cristian

Hi there,

Congrats on the invite!

I actually have a huge folder of about 15 real written cases from past companies.

Make sure you first practice casing itself. All of those fundamentals (structured thinking, fast/efficient chart reading, etc.) are critical in written cases.

Then, practice a range of written cases prior to the day itself. Importantly, you want to simulate the live experience as much as possible.
