I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Deloitte in Apr 2010
Interview
After the screening, a numerical and verbal test must be completed. These are standard tests and were easier than the tests used by KPMG. It is advised to practice for the tests in advance. PKF and Deoitte use the same test provider. After passing the numerical and verbal tests you are invited for a competency-based interview with a manager. This is a very tough and thorough interview and for each question you need to give 2 examples. After that interview you are invited to the assessment centre which lasts 1 entire day. You have another competency-based interview, need to prepare a case study, you have 2 interviews with managers to whom you need to explain your findings from the case study. You are invited for lunch, meet members of the department and have an interview with the partner.

I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Deloitte in Oct 2011
Interview
I had 2 interviews back to back with one tax partner and an HR manager. Overall, not too difficult questions, the tax partner was very relaxed and we talked most of the time. The HR manager, however, ran through a list of prepared questions, which was more formal.
