Deloitte Situational Judgement Test SJT Guidance: Pass at Your First Attempt

Congratulations on reaching the behavioural stage. Many applicants do not make it this far. The Deloitte Situational Judgement Test appears within the Immersive Online Assessment and again inside the Job Simulation for many service lines. This page explains what to expect and how to prepare so you can perform with confidence.

Deloitte SJT Preparation

After Deloitte invites you, you will usually have a short window to prepare. The SJT presents realistic workplace scenarios and asks you to choose or rank the most effective responses. Your task is to show sound judgement that aligns with Deloitte values and the context of the scenario. With targeted practice you can learn consistent decision patterns that score highly.

Deloitte SJT Criteria

The SJT assesses your judgement against Deloitte values. Expect scenarios that probe how you Collaborate for measurable impact, Lead the way, Serve with integrity, Take care of each other and Foster inclusion. Your answers should show balanced stakeholder thinking, practical prioritisation, and clear ownership while seeking input when needed.

Deloitte does not publish the exact questions. Our ex Big Four coaches map model responses to each value theme and teach you how to avoid common traps such as choosing options that sound nice but fail to address risk, client impact, or time pressure.

Deloitte SJT Details

The assessment is delivered online and often appears inside IOA and Job Simulation. Question styles include single best action, most to least ranking, and follow on probes that build on earlier information. Content reflects emails, chat threads, meeting notes, client updates, and light data exhibits. Calculations are minimal. The focus is judgement, communication and ownership.

Many candidates see 20 to 30 behavioural items overall across stages. Time is factored in some modules, so work at a steady pace. Read the scenario carefully, identify the core objective, risks and stakeholders, then choose actions that move the work forward and reflect Deloitte values.

If Deloitte shares practice via Candidate Zone, use it to get familiar with the platform flow. Then train with harder scenarios so the real test feels easier.

Deloitte SJT Results

Your SJT performance is recorded and considered with your IOA and Job Simulation results. Recruiters look for consistent alignment to values, clear reasoning, and practical impact. Strong SJT scores help you progress to the final stage, which may include a partner interview and assessment centre tasks.

To stand out, apply a repeatable method. Clarify the goal, evaluate stakeholder impact, choose the option that addresses the priority risk, communicate clearly, and demonstrate accountability.
