Hey,
I am applying for the vacation scheme so my final round was an interview which I had on thursday but still waiting, they said they would get back to me within 3 days so I am hoping to hear the news today.
Our recruitment process was different, my 1st round was the etray assessment day, i heard I was successful in that after about 8 days..!
I hope they get back to me sooner since this was the final round, I just want to know if I have it or not, hate waiting for a phone call/email!

It *should* take them 2 days to get back to you - if you haven't heard anything after a week then phone up the lazy person in HR who probably just forgot to call you!

They usually take a bit longer with SVS applications because they have so many people at the assessment stage and only a few places to offer so they wait until they've completed a round of assessment days before coming to their decision. When I did the SVS it was 8 days before I found out I had a place, whereas my friend who found out she got a place before she even left the office (she was the last to have her assessment day!).

Still not heard, it is something that puts me off Deloitte a bit. So unprofessional to say you will get back within three days and then not doing it.
And if I have been rejected a generic email surely does not take too long too forward.

Successfully through to the next round or successful in receiving a job/internship offer?
Seems a bit weird to be offered a job through email communication, seems a lot more appropriate to call you

Nice man, I am chuffed with my offer. V weird it being offered through email and just contracts sent. Not sure if it was for my first choice office/which rotation scheme period it was! I hope to god it was for the 1st one, from like end june- mid august because I have my other internship starting just after that.
Which office did you apply too?

Sweet, I am doing the audit/tax in London as well. I think there are, one between like end June-mid August and Early August - mid September, or round about then as far as I know.
If we get the same intake then I guess I will see you on the course :smile:

I am quite excited as well, if it was anything like my BDO contract though it will be HENCH and take a good hour to go through.
Oh cool, my mum was from Malaysia as well, I think I am something like 1/16th actual Malaysian amongst many other races.
