I require an adjustment to the recruitment process. What should I do?
If you need an accommodation or adjustment during the recruitment process due to accessibility needs, please indicate it on your application form. We value your participation and want to ensure your experience is comfortable and inclusive.

Accessibility assistance in the online assessment
The Immersive Online Assessment has many built-in adjustments that you can self-activate. It's not a timed assessment, so you have unlimited time once you're in the system. You'll find more help, advice and FAQs on the online assessment here.

If there's further support we can provide, please contact us before completing the assessment. We’ll be happy to assist!

Our Access and Inclusion Plan
Deloitte is committed to accessibility and inclusion. Learn more on our Accessibility and Inclusion webpage.

Can I apply for more than one role?
To help you focus your applications, we recommend applying for no more than two roles.

This will show us that you’ve done your research on Deloitte, the roles and opportunities available to you, and help articulate your areas of interest and where you see your future at Deloitte.

I have applied for a role at Deloitte in the past 6 months. Can I apply for another role?
If you have applied and been unsuccessful in a specific area within the last 6 months, you cannot reapply to that same area. Consider incorporating any prior feedback to improve your application for other opportunities.

Academic Transcripts
We require a copy of your transcript upon application. We accept unofficial transcripts, but you must provide an official transcript if you successfully secure a graduate role. 

Do you have a mid-year intake? 
Yes, some of our business units do offer mid-year intakes. Please liaise with the relevant recruiter as you progress through the application process.

Are PhD/ Post-grad students eligible?
Definitely! We accept postgraduate students into our Vacationer and Graduate programs in line with our standard eligibility requirements.

I'm interested in applying to different streams. Do I need to provide a cover letter for each stream?
There is no need to attach a cover letter to each application. You will be asked why you are interested in this business unit/team for the role you are applying for.

Do the answers to the screening questions in my application matter? 
Yes, they do.  We conduct an initial eligibility assessment based on your responses to these questions. Ensure you respond to them as accurately as possible and have uploaded any requested documents. 

The area/team I am interested in doesn’t have any opportunities - what can I do?
That is okay. You can create a candidate profile here and set up a Job Alert to be notified when a matching opportunity becomes available. To set up your job alert, click on the 'Options' menu and then 'Job alerts'.

The majority of our program opportunities are launched in February or mid-year. If you choose to hold off on applying, please note that we cannot guarantee these opportunities will be offered again.

Where can I learn more about the recruitment process?
You'll find an overview of the recruitment process in the 'How we hire' section of the respective Graduate Program or Summer Vacationer pages, along with tips and advice from our team on what to expect at each stage of the process! 

For information on our hiring process for other programs, please visit our First Nations, International Students, or Me at Deloitte pages.

I require an adjustment to the recruitment process. What should I do?
If you need an accommodation or adjustment during the recruitment process due to accessibility needs, please indicate it on your application form.

The Immersive Online Assessment has many built-in adjustments that you can self-activate. It's not a timed assessment, so you have unlimited time once you're in the system to complete it. You'll find more help, advice and FAQs on the online assessment here. 

If you need any further support before completing the assessment, please contact us, and we’ll be happy to assist.

I completed the online assessment earlier this year and am now being prompted to complete it again. Do I need to redo this assessment?
We've introduced a new assessment to ensure a fair process. If you applied before July 2024 and completed the previous evaluation, please complete this updated assessment.

If you applied for a student opportunity (and subsequently completed the assessment) after the 24th of July 2024, you don’t need to do it again. 

I’ve applied for two roles this season. Do I need to do an online immersive assessment twice?
No, please complete the online immersive assessment only once. However, as noted above, if you completed the assessment earlier this year (pre-July 24, 2024), you will need to complete the new assessment.

You will receive an email for each role you have applied to; however, your results will be shared across all your applications. We’ll use the results alongside your application to assess your suitability.  

For general advice, systems requirements, and technical support regarding the immersive online assessment, please click here. 

I’ve completed the online simulated assessment (2nd stage), but my profile still shows ‘complete your assessment’.
Don’t worry—likely, you’ve already completed this, and you don’t need to resubmit. If you have followed the instructions and completed the assessment successfully, the status will update once our team member reviews your submission.

I am still experiencing technical difficulties with the online immersive assessment. What do I do?
Please check out this handy guide. If you are still experiencing issues, please contact us; we’ll do our best to help.

I require an adjustment to the immersive assessment. What should I do?
You can self-activate some built-in adjustments—find out how by clicking here. Also, this is not a timed assessment; you have unlimited time to complete this step.

If there's further support that we can provide, don't hesitate to contact us before completing the assessment, and we’ll be happy to assist!

Will I get feedback on the immersive assessment?
Yes! Everyone who completes the assessment will get a personalised strengths report. It's not an outcome; we’ll contact you with a further update soon after you complete this step.

The recruitment process varies depending on the role you have applied for. We encourage you to review the instructions carefully to ensure you are confident in the steps involved, whether it's a digital interview, a job simulation, or both. Clicking the link in each invitation will help you complete the required steps smoothly.

If you have completed your job simulation assessment and your candidate profile indicates you need to complete it again, do not worry; this happens when you have applied for more than one role.

Do I have to complete both?
It depends on the area you expressed interest in. If you applied to two roles, one requiring a digital interview and the other a job simulator, you must complete both.

How many times can I re-record the digital interview?
You can re-record once. We understand that preparing your responses is important, so we allow time for you to read the question before recording your response. Take your time to feel ready.

Check out the short video from our team in the 'How we hire' section of the respective Program pages for tips and advice on how to ace the digital interview and job simulator!

Is there a practice round in the Job Simulator?
Before the assessed questions, a practice round is available in the Video Set-up section of the Job Simulator. This helps you prepare for the actual assessment and reduces uncertainty.

I require an adjustment to the digital interview. What should I do?
Please indicate on your application form, or contact us for further support.

Will I receive a confirmation email after I submit my application?
You will not receive a confirmation email once you have clicked the “Submit” button on your application. However, you will be redirected to a page on our website confirming receipt of your application.

How do I view the roles for which I have submitted applications?
You can view your job application(s) at any stage by logging into your candidate profile. There, you can:

• Track the progress of your application(s)
• Update your resume, transcript, and proof of work rights (not required at the time of application; we will request this only at the offer stage), and your English language proficiency result for international students.

When can I expect to hear back after completing my application?
After receiving your application, we will respond as soon as possible. We take time to review each application, so please be patient.

If you have not heard back regarding your application, please log in to your candidate profile to:

• Ensure your application is complete
• Ensure you have attached your resume and transcript
• Ensure you complete your testing within the allocated timeframe.

If you have followed the steps above and have not yet heard from us, we are still considering your application.

Will I receive feedback on my application?
As a commitment to every applicant, you will receive written or verbal notification of the outcome of your application. We are still considering your application; if you have not heard from us, please allow some time.

I will be away, travelling overseas, during the process. What should I do?
We strongly recommend updating your voicemail with your travel dates so we can leave you a message and keep your application in mind.

Deloitte Australia* welcomes applications from students who do not yet hold Australian permanent residence to augment our talent pools.

We're accepting Graduate & Vacationer Interest in the following areas: Audit & Assurance, Strategy, Risk & Transactions, and Tax & Legal. We will review applications and contact you to invite you to the recruitment process if your application is selected.

If you are in this category, you must meet the following criteria to be eligible:

• You must currently reside lawfully in Australia
• You are currently studying or have studied a relevant degree
• You will have studied this degree for at least two years in Australia
• You will have completed an approved English Language test and demonstrated that you have reached 'Proficient English' as set by the Department of Home Affairs. If you hold a passport from the UK, USA, Canada or the Republic of Ireland, you are not required to provide evidence of English Language Proficiency (which is in line with immigration requirements)
• You agree to apply immediately upon finishing your degree and before your start date with Deloitte for either the Temporary Graduate Visa (Subclass 485 - either the Graduate or Post-Study Work Stream) or the Subclass 189 Skilled - Independent if you do not already hold one of these visas.

Note: It is important to note that Deloitte cannot assist with obtaining the Temporary Graduate Visa (Subclass 485) or the Subclass 189 Skilled - Independent Visa. You are responsible for independently applying for and securing the relevant visa, which is a condition of your employment.

Due to the changes announced by the Department of Home Affairs in July 2018 to the subclass 189 and the transition from the subclass 457 visa to the Temporary Skills Shortage (TSS) visa, Deloitte’s priority is the hiring of domestic graduate talent into our Audit & Assurance and Tax & Legal business units. Acceptance of international student applications in the above areas will be based on exception only.

See all our international locations.

* All Australian offices except Canberra, where Australian citizenship is required.

Do you offer work experience placements for high school students?
Deloitte does not currently offer work placements for high school students. The first point to engage with our student programs is through the Me at Deloitte program in your pre-penultimate year of study (if you are studying a 3-year course, this would be in your first year of study). 

In 2025, we launched BrightStart, a career pathway for high school leavers to study while working alongside our Deloitte team. 

Additionally, Deloitte offers programs for university students, including internships, work experience, and the Cyber Academy Program, launched in early 2023. These programs are designed to provide practical knowledge and may include opportunities for credit or professional development. 

Can the vacation program count as course credit towards my degree?
The Deloitte vacation program can sometimes count as course credit if it has been pre-arranged through your university and the placement meets your institution’s requirements. While we cannot sign external documentation, you can request a statement of service to help demonstrate your placement timings to your university, ensuring your efforts are recognised and valued.

What is Deloitte Experience (DX)?
Flexibility is at the heart of how we work at Deloitte, recognising that everyone has different personal circumstances and preferences. We know that success at work is empowered by support for life outside of work, including resources for various personal situations and commitments.

Deloitte Experience (DX) is how we define our new ways of working. It reimagines what ''work' looks like to empower all our people to make choices about where they work based on their client, team and individual needs.

Our market-leading flexible work policy, DeloitteFlex, now includes 12 flexible working options, allowing employees to shape their working day, including when they start and finish, and how they flex to meet personal and professional priorities. This support is designed to help you feel empowered and confident in balancing your work and personal life.

What do people wear at Deloitte?
There's no 'formal' dress code at Deloitte, and we encourage employees to dress in a way that makes them feel comfortable and authentic, regardless of their gender identity, expression, cultural identity and heritage.

We encourage our people to dress for their day, which means thinking about appropriate and responsible attire for meeting with your team and clients (both virtually or in-person).

What will my salary be as a Vacationer or Graduate?
Our salaries are benchmarked against competitive market rates, and it's important to remember this is part of a broader package that includes our fantastic employee benefits.

What training will I get as a Graduate at Deloitte?
As part of your journey with us, you will get a chance to immerse yourself in our award-winning Graduate Learning Academy, which will provide you with the tools and training you'll need to drive your career experience, along with ongoing mentoring, peer support and e-learning to continue your personal and professional development.
