    Deloitte, which sub-group will offer shortest working hours
    Hi,

    I have been offered a place with Deloitte, and have been asked to select a sub group within corporate audit. Does anyone know which of the sub groups has the shortest working hours?

    Thanks,
    Smallfeet

    Well, which one do you like the look of? Would you prefer to be put into a FS group or not?

    I think you're looking at it the wrong way. You shouldn't base which group you go into on working hours, you should find one that you are interested in.

    Oh dear. That's not a promising attitude..!

    Pick the one you are most interested in (and which helps you to get to where you want to be - e.g. if you want to go into IB, look at banking & capital markets) and sod the working hours. This is your career after all!

    FS is the worst in terms of hours.

    Thanks for your replies. I wont go for financial services audit, as I am not interested in it. I want to go for corporate audit, but the sub groups from within corporate audit that we have to choose are corporate business, energy and research, technology media and communications, and infrastructure services and real estate. Any ideas which of those would have shortest hours?

    Thanks,

    I'd say just go for the one you are most interested in. Hours will probably be fairly similar between them, and depend on your individual clients. All may involve strange working hours if you need to contact parts of the business in other countries, eg upstream oil supply in the Gulf of Mexico.
