how/what to prepare for a written Deloitte case interview ?
Overview of answers
Hi there,
This is a big question. I can assure you that no wrriten response will be sufficient as there's simply too much to cover - as such, I highly recommend you hire a coach!
That said, keep in mind the following:
- Remember that most casing tips apply here (i.e. be very clear+focused on the objective, ruthlessly cut out information that doesn't help you meet this objective/question, make sure to thinking + communicate in a structured way, etc. etc.)
- Practice/simulate this as much as possible beforehand...getting a coach to help you run through scenarios + how to react in inevitably challenging moments will do a world of good.
I have a number of written case I'd be more than happy to share with you! What I generally do with my candidates is, give them a written case x hours before our scheduled session (adjust # of hours based on the specific interview they're going to have), and then review their work during the session (as well as talk through tips+tricks to get better).

I have recently helped many candidates get offers at Deloitte across various practices. And written case was part of the process for all of them. So feel free to send me a direct message to discuss your preparation.
Hi,
case preparation will be the classical one with 2 additional points to focus on:
- 80-20 prioritization: quickly navigate an important amount of data to find what really matters to the case resolution;
- Executive summary: develop 1-2 pages to present that sum up the problem and your recommendations.
I have a couple of well-done written cases, feel free to text me for sharing.
Best,
