Please describe the interview / hiring process.
I was in the final stages of my studies at the law school and spotted a job ad for a Trainee position in the Tax & Legal function at Deloitte. I had been in law firms previously and thought that it would be interesting to see what a consulting firm has to offer for a law student, so I applied.

I was contacted via telephone to participate in a "case interview". There were 6 candidates present whom of which 1 would be selected. We had to solve "a business problem", which was surprisingly simple. There were some basic economic stuff and a little more advanced legal (contract law, employment law, competition law, IP law) issues involved, which we as a group managed to solve quite thoroughly in my mind. After the case interview we had to fill these papers describing the performance of ourselves and the others and who we thought managed best.

Even though we were threatened that some of us would have to participate in 1 on 1 interviews afterwards, I got a call in few weeks informing that I was chosen to the position without a need for a second interview.

Afterwards (and after completing a skills and a personality tests), I landed a job as a consultant at the firm, working mainly with mergers & acquisitions.
