Okay guys, so I'm going to drop this here so that future applicants could learn from it. From the Deloitte aptitude test on Saturday, these are my deductions.
The test has 5 parts: numerical/quantitative reasoning, verbal reasoning, diagrammatic reasoning, current affairs and essay.
Numerical reasoning - This was the toughest part of the test. It is not the normal "I fit use my brain solve this one" kind of question. You must have PREPARED ADEQUATELY (note the emphasis). Questions on equations of lines, circles, parabola and some core mathematics. Truth is, you could prepare for it with any good GMAT material with medium-to-high level difficulty questions. So practice, practice and don't stop practicing cox it's going to pay off.
Verbal reasoning - This was like the comforting part of the test. Questions on antonyms, synonyms, comprehension passages and word correction. You could scale through this section without so much preparations except your English/vocabulary needs more polishing.
Diagrammatic Reasoning - there were just about 5 questions in this section and it was lumped with the verbal reasoning section. The questions were not hard-twist. Pretty straightforward.
Current affairs- all sorts cropped up in this section. It was fill in the gaps. Names of countries, their capitals, currencies, their presidents/leaders, slogans of Telecomm companies and banks, full meaning of abbreviations such as IBRD, EFCC, UNDP etc., francophone, Anglophone and lusophone countries In Africa, names if certain ministers in nigeria such as finance, education., largest producer-country of certain items like cocoa, cassava
Essay - two topics were given. Choose 1. Questions bordered mainly on socio-economic issues such as population. My question was on the implication of a large Nigerian population. My advice is brush up your writing skills. In addition, try to write in a way that captures your audience/reader. Bring in facts/statistics into your work (such as current population according to so and so last census), be analytical (scratch deep into the topic and score points in this section. Look at the issue from both sides. For instance the implication of a large Nigerian population could be both positive and negative), you could recommend policies if need be. In all, just express yourself in simple logical tenses but yet in an intelligent manner.

There were different question types so the person sitting next to you may most likely not have the same questions as you. The verbal, numerical and diagrammatic total 50 questions. Current affairs was 20 questions. All 5 parts were written in 2 hours. You may want to carry a wristwatch. Also don't bother asking peeps here for Deloitte Past questions cox there is hardly any. Just get a good GMAT material and prepare with it. Wish you all the best fam.

P.S. - I apologise for the long narrative but I know how frustrating it is when you are trying to prepare for a test and you have no pointers. Hence, my detailed post.

Thank you for taking out the time to respond. You have been helpful.

Obi411:
No current affairs, bamijayy, but please refer to another thread where some candidates wrote in PH sometime past mid last year; I think they mentioned being asked some current affairs. I'm not certain. But it would help if you saw that thread.
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Akintola Williams Deloitte Test by bamijayy: 9:26am On Jun 24, 2018
Thanks for responding Obi411. Was there current affairs when you wrote yours or was it only maths, english and essay. I do appreciate your response once again. Thanks man.

Obi411:
Hi. I didn't get into Deloitte; at least not yet... But if they haven't changed their test format from what it was when I wrote in late 2016, then you should know that time management is very critical in your success because you'd be given an hour to answer 50 questions (If I remember correctly) comprising Maths and English -- in the maths you'd find a few basic further maths questions like surd, and basic general maths like simultaneous equations, quadratic, etc -- and also write an essay on a select topic of your choice from a given alternative topics. Yes, all in one hour. I'd advise you budget no more than a page essay for seven minutes.

I made it to the last stage of interview but I am still yet to be gotten back to after almost a year. I applied for Consulting but was later interviewed for Forensics. I understand that the need for recruits in these units is less relative to other units, for instance Audit. So, if you want to get in quick, then consider audit as your choice department; for you'd be asked to indicate your preference unit on your answer booklet on your test day.


The process could have changed, though, so anyone with a newer experience can come share. Cheers.
