I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Deloitte (Newcastle upon Tyne, Engeland) in Feb 2015
Interview
One face-to-face competency based interview with a case study followed by a partner interview in which a five minute current-affairs presentation was required. The partner interview was slightly more tax-specific but still testing the various competencies. Both interviews were some of the most relaxed-feeling ones i've had. They replied with the offer very quickly.

I applied online. I interviewed at Deloitte (Nairobi) in May 2015
Interview
Typical online application process through their careers section on their website. I managed to get called for an online aptitude test at a venue which was monitored by Deloitte HR staff. The second stage was a group assessment center. There candidates were asked to first fill in a personality questionnaire. Thereafter, I was called in for a brief interview. After the interview candidates were divided into groups of 5 and asked to complete a task with a time limit of 25 minutes. Candidates had place cards with clues but could only verbally communicate the clues and no appointed leader was to be selected.
Third stage, manager panel interview.
Fourth stage, partner interview and presentation,

Interview
The interview process consisted of two 30min sessions with a Director (Tax) and a Manager. It was a face-to-face interview and the interviewer took notes during the interview. Both of them were professional and were very conscious of the time. They asked similar questions about work experience and education.
