They did not ask me any behavior questions. Every question is technical. First around is more about statistics and math. Content includes statistic model, series etc (topics covered in ECON203 and MATH241). The second round is more like, they give you 1 or 2 days to get familiar with the current ...

Interning anywhere is all about effort and enthusiasm. Do the easy stuff: be punctual, be prepared, be attentive. Then, take it the next step...ask meaning and substantial questions, always be willing to learn more. If you don't have anything to do at a particular moment, ask if there's anything ...
Be friendly to your colleagues. If there are some mistakes you made, be honest and try to recuse. Be active and show that you really want the full time offer. Prepare for some professional knowledge of CPA exams. For example, when are you going to take it , how many subjects and knowledge?
Microsoft office. Especially excel.
Interpersonal skills. For example, communication skills, collaboration skills.
Business sense. How to write a formal business email? How to communicate with different clients in a formal way?
Dress code. No sport shoes or cloth. Business casual is welcomed.

As an intern in the IT department, I had a great work life balance. There is no work outside of work as everything is done in the building itself. (You probably can’t do any work outside of the building except for computer repairs but they have people for that). The 8 hour workday didn’t even fee...

I found the environment to be quite relaxing. It is a 9-6 work day with 1 hour of lunch that you can take whenever (as long as everyone doesn’t all go on lunch at once). The day would begin with setting up laptops for imaging. After the setup, we would go on to different tasks such as supporting ...

As a Discovery Intern, I liked the opportunity to rotate between two departments, which were Audit and Tax for me. It's a good opportunity to compare which department you'd like to work in the future. I liked that Deloitte pays you to travel to a different city for training, which was Dallas for ...

Initiative, inquisitive, and open-mindedness. Taking initiative was the best thing I could have done to make my time as an intern stand out. Be diligent in your work and ask questions to understand why you are doing the tasks you are assigned—it helps you to understand the big picture of the busi...

As a result as intern you either work in the quant section (verifying the internal risk management measures, helping to deve...

Honestly, very little. Staff to senior should expect to be putting in some long hours in busy season. The work is constant, and sometimes there is not much of an off season. However, this is totally up to you. If you can learn to say no and set boundaries as well as structure your own life, you s...
I think Deloitte does a good job of maintaining a good work-life balance. It also depends on how far you live from the office to consider for time outside of work. However, Deloitte does many fun things for the interns, like happy hours, Cedar Point trip, lunches, community service day, Indians g...

Your work will almost always be reviewed by someone else, so don't worry about making mistakes. Don't get me wrong, make sure that you try to do t...
