Deloitte Video Interview: Questions & How to Pass

Consulting · Updated 2026 · Interview Buddy team
Deloitte uses one-way video interviews as an early stage for graduate, vacationer and analyst roles, usually before an assessment centre. You record answers to set questions that probe your motivation for consulting and the firm, plus behavioural competencies.
It's a filter that screens a large applicant pool, so genuine motivation and structured examples are what advance you. This guide covers the questions Deloitte tends to ask, how they're assessed, and how to record answers that stand out.

What a Deloitte video interview looks like

•
You get a link and record answers to typically 3–5 questions, with a short prep window (~30 seconds) and a per-answer time limit (1–3 minutes).
•
Questions focus on motivation ('why consulting, why Deloitte, why this service line'), behavioural examples and sometimes commercial awareness.
•
Answers are assessed for genuine motivation, communication, and alignment with Deloitte's values and behaviours.
•
No live interviewer; treat it as the gateway to the assessment centre and bring real energy.
•
Dress in business attire and record in a quiet, tidy, well-lit space.
