The list is indicative of some of the strengths we are looking for in an applicant and having evidence of them may be beneficial in the application process. We would still encourage you to apply even if you do not have all the experiences listed above.

Application Process

Applications will be assessed on an ongoing basis and will provisionally close at the end of November 2025. Please note that this is a provisional guide and applications may close sooner.

The application process consists of an initial screening, followed by an assessment process in Winter 2025/26.

Personal independence

Regulation and controls are standard practice in our industry and Deloitte is no exception. These controls provide important legal protection for both you and the firm. We are subject to a number of audit regulations, one of which requires that certain colleagues abide by specific personal independence constraints (e.g., in relation to any financial interests and employment relationships). This can mean that you and your "Immediate Family Members" are not permitted to hold certain financial interests (shares, funds, bonds etc.) with audit clients of the firm, and also prohibitions on certain employment relationships (e.g., you are not permitted to hold a secondary employment role with SEC audit clients of the firm whilst being employed by the firm). The recruitment team will provide further detail as you progress through the recruitment process, or you can contact the Independence team upon request.
