Hello everyone. I am currently at the pre-final stage of Deloitte's new training contract application. I wanted to ask, especially the more senior members, what are their thoughts on such a training contract and whether anyone has any tips as to the questions to be expected in the Job Simulation part of the application process. Thank you.

Sat the job simulation this morning. It's basically a more involved version of the immersive assessment. You are given a case study and you work through it in the role of a trainee by giving video, written and ranking answers. Not particularly difficult. Have a think about past experiences and skills that you may want to relate back to.

Waiting to hear. I am attending the London University Autumn Careers Evening today. Will hopefully get some advice for the final stage, in case I am successful.
Sat job simulation on 01/10/2019 and heard back on the 11/10/2019.
Graduate programmes have a 31st October deadline https://www2.deloitte.com/uk/en/pages/careers/articles/selection-process.html
For anyone following this thread I thought I’d let you know I just received a rejection email this morning for the job simulation. I sat it on 30th September, and emailed yesterday asking when I would receive an update because it had been longer than the stipulated 4 weeks... so maybe I’d advise against emailing them lol.
I completed the job sim on the 1/10 and was rejected on the 11/10. It is a scenario-based simulation with a bit of forward-looking competency thrown in. This was my feedback/rejection email:
"We've spent time considering your application, and I ‘m sorry to let you know that you were not successful in the assessment. Unfortunately your responses did not closely enough match the profile we are looking for. We’re looking for individuals who show resilience in challenging situations, are solutions-oriented and can quickly and accurately interpret and manipulate information from multiple sources.
Unfortunately as we receive such a high volume of applications, we aren’t able to offer personalised feedback. Below are some of the typical reasons for a candidate not passing the assessment, although note this is not an exhaustive list.
Reasons include:
• Demonstrating a preference to avoid pressurised situations
• Preferring to solve problems by using existing processes
• Preferring to have information presented clearly and concisely when making a decision"
I spoke to grad recruitment on Friday and they said they're still reviewing apps
