Deloitte Apprenticeship Interview Questions 2026
Deloitte's interview process for school leavers follows a structured format: online assessments followed by a virtual assessment centre (vac) with group and individual exercises. Below are the types of questions you should prepare for, based on the competencies they actually test.
The Questions Deloitte Asks
Every question maps to one of Deloitte's core competencies. Prepare at least one strong STAR story per competency.
Leadership
“Tell me about a time you demonstrated leadership.”
Use the STAR framework. Focus on what YOU specifically did, not what the team did.
Impact

Use the STAR framework. Focus on what YOU specifically did, not what the team did.

Curiosity

Resilience
“Tell me about a time you demonstrated resilience.”

The STAR Framework
S — Situation: Set the scene briefly (1–2 sentences). Enough context, no more.
T — Task: What was your specific responsibility? What was expected of you?
A — Action: What YOU did — not "we". Be specific. This is 60% of the answer.
R — Result: Quantify if possible. What changed? What did you learn?
Motivational Questions
Why Deloitte specifically — not just the sector?
Why an apprenticeship over university?
Where do you see yourself in five years?
What do you know about the challenges Deloitte faces right now?
What gets candidates rejected
Vague answers like “I worked in a team and we all helped each other.” Interviewers want to hear what YOU specifically did. If you can't isolate your individual contribution, the answer won't land.
