I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Deloitte (Los Angeles, CA) in Oct 2010
Interview
It was the standard on campus interview mostly dealing with background and generally see how you handle a social conversation. I got along great with the partner interviewing me and he even told me on the way out "Don't worry. You did great and said all the right things." Then a little over a week later I got an email telling me I didn't make it to the next round. I'm perplexed to say the least. If he was going to pay the usual "We'll call you" lip service he could have just done that and not gone as far with his compliments as he did. So I can only assume there was something else in play that I don't know about...
Online Assessment followed by a Hirevue followed by Assessment Centre. Hirevue had 3 questions to be answered - 3 minutes each. Assessment centre was one day long with a handful of other candidates.
I interviewed at Deloitte (Newcastle upon Tyne, England)
Interview
questions on why you think you’re the right fit for job, applicable skills etc, wasn’t too long of an interview, also had online interview before being invited into the office for a real one.
I applied online as usual and heard back from the recruiter over email. The application is pretty straightforward and the same as other companies. It might increase your chance of being reviewed if you have an internal referral.
