Company Description

About Deloitte Consulting  

Innovation, transformation and leadership occur in many ways. At Deloitte Consulting, our ability to help solve clients’ most complex issues is distinct. We deliver strategy and implementation, from a business and technology view, to help lead in the markets where our clients compete. Our professionals help clients identify and solve their most critical information and technology challenges, including strategy, procurement, design, delivery and assurance of technology solutions. Our professionals need to have the acumen to handle complex situations and multiple responsibilities simultaneously, balancing long term projects with the urgency of immediate operational demands. We are committed to establishing and empowering the firm by establishing an environment of continuous learning and enriching career opportunities.

About Deloitte Digital

We are the part of Deloitte Consulting that uses technology and creativity to better connect the customer with the business by bringing empathy, ideas and experiences into all that we do.

Better known as Deloitte Digital, we use emergent technology to imagine, deliver, and run entirely new business futures. We create innovative ventures, digital platforms, and more meaningful experiences. This transformation journey starts and ends with the customer, first understanding people’s real lives and then shaping your business future to deliver around them.

We call this Elevating the Human Experience.

At Deloitte Digital, we are all things customer. We focus all our talent, creativity and technology on all the connection points between an organization and its customer. We design and implement sales and service experiences, capabilities, and architectures to bring customer strategies to life. This includes sales experiences, omni-channel service experiences, marketing and commerce experiences.

We are focused on building a viable core Digital Customer Platforms practice with a focus on CRM to service our core customer domains of service excellence, sales transformation, marketing & commerce, and customer loyalty. This practice, however, does need a layer of service design and experience advisory capability, in addition to core CRM Practice capabilities, to provide the functional and “imagine” capabilities. Intention over time is to be able to scale the tech platforms as the core and work together with the rest of Consulting for missing capabilities. Deloitte’s Global Delivery Network will also become a key lever for scaling the business.

Be careful of Recruitment Scams: Fraudsters or employment scammers often pose as legitimate recruiters, employers, recruitment consultants or job placement firms, advertising false job opportunities through email, text messages and WhatsApp messages. They aim to cheat jobseekers out of money or to steal personal information.

To help you look out for potential recruitment scams, here are some Red Flags:

• Upfront Payment Requests: Deloitte will never ask for any upfront payment for background checks, job training, or supplies.
• Requests for Personal Information: Be wary if you are asked for sensitive personal information, especially early in the recruitment process and without a clear need for it. Fraudulent links or contractual documents may require the provision of sensitive personal data or copy documents (e.g., government issued numbers or identity documents, passports or passport numbers, bank account statements or numbers, parent’s data) that may be used for identity fraud. Do not provide or send any of these documents or data. Please note we will never ask for photographs at any stage of the recruitment process.
• Unprofessional Communication: Scammers may communicate in an unprofessional manner. Their messages may be filled with poor grammar and spelling errors. The look and feel may not be consistent with the Deloitte corporate brand.
