Any insights into the interview process for Deloitte in London?

Are the case studies Financial crime/ Forensic specific?

I have already prepared for FIT/PEI questions, but not sure about the types of case studies to prepare, coming from a Economic crime background, would they ask me case studies related to profit framework or merger-acquisitions and other unrelated topics?

Hello!

Never heard of this!!!! ;)

And it´s so niche that it will be hard.

I would advise you to write people form the dept in Linkedin, preferribly those with whom you share things (e.g., same studies, contacts in common, etc.). They would be able to point you in the right direction.

Hope it helps!

Cheers,

Clara

Hi there,

Clara made a great point about networking.

For the types of cases, if you are new in casing, you might start with "the usual ones" and then go to the specific ones for your preferable industry. At the same time, bear in mind that no actual deep knowledge of the industry is required for the case interview, but it might help you.

Good luck!

Cheers, GB

Hi there,

There was a question on this topic asked not too long ago!

https://www.preplounge.com/en/consulting-forum/forensic-accounting-case-study-deloitte-9003

My key recommendation here is: 1) Do "unique" cases. (I.e. ones that are not market entry, profitability etc.) so that you can practice your problem solving abilities. 2) Read Deloitte's (and other company's) forensic account webpage...dig deep across their articles, papers, etc. to learn about the major topics and ways of thinking within forensics.
