6 months after interviewing at Deloitte and my application is still “in progress” — is this normal?

I applied to Deloitte on January 15th, 2025, and my application is still “in progress” almost 6 months later.

I already had 2 interviews, and from what I heard through HR, the feedback was very positive. Every time I follow up, they tell me to wait because a response is coming soon, but this has been going on for months now.

At this point I honestly don’t know if this is normal for Deloitte or if I should just assume the role is frozen/on hold. The position is still active in their system, which makes it even more confusing.

Has anyone here experienced such a long hiring process with Deloitte or another big consulting company? Did you eventually get an offer after waiting this long?

I asked AI to visualize what that actually looks like… and seeing it like this genuinely shocked me.
Almost:
900 packs
~90kg of cigarettes
Thousands saved
Countless cravings ignored
When I was smoking, I never thought about the physical volume of it. Seeing an entire wall made of cigarettes puts it into perspective.
Still get random cravings sometimes, but there’s no chance I’m going back.
If you quit recently, keep going. The days stack up way faster than you think.

Hey everyone,

I’m a UX/UI designer with ~6 years of experience. I was recently laid off after working at the same company for most of my career, and now I’m trying to get back into the market.

Honestly… it’s been tougher than I expected.

Most of my real work is under NDA, so I can’t show the actual projects I’ve worked on. I’ve rebuilt my portfolio using a mix of personal projects, some redacted case studies, and a few conceptual redesigns — but I’m not really sure if I’m positioning myself well or if something feels off.

Would really appreciate some honest feedback on:

  • Overall portfolio / structure
  • Case studies (too shallow? too long? unclear?)
  • How I handled NDA work
  • Anything that might be killing my chances without me realizing

Right now I’m applying but not getting much traction, so I’m trying to figure out if the issue is my portfolio or just the current market (or both).

Be as honest as you want I’d rather fix problems than keep guessing.

Thanks a lot 🙏
