Resume for Deloitte: an analyst format for commerce and CA-track graduates
We hold no verified details about Deloitte's recruitment process, so this page does not describe it. It covers what professional-services firms generally read in an early-career commerce resume: audit work done, volumes handled and tools used.

In short
- We could not verify Deloitte's current process or systems. This is guidance for audit, tax and analyst applications from commerce graduates and CA-track students.
- Write an internship or articleship like a job: the firm, the period, the clients' turnover bands, the tasks and what you found.
- Use counts: entries vouched, accounts reconciled, schedules prepared, exceptions reported.
- State exactly how far you are in a professional exam. Never imply a qualification you have not completed.
What we know, and what we do not
Write the internship like a job
Commerce guidance for freshers consistently says to treat an internship or articleship as work: name the firm, give the period, describe the clients by turnover band (not by name), then list what you did and what you found. A reader at a firm that audits clients wants to know the size of what you handled.
An audit internship written as a job
- Supported vouching, ledger scrutiny and fixed-asset schedules across the 3 audits, reporting 9 exceptions to the manager.Turnover bands tell the reader the scale without naming the clients.
Bullets that show audit and analysis work
- Before
Did internship at a CA firm
AfterSupported the statutory audit of 3 private companies (turnover ₹20 to ₹80 Cr) with vouching, ledger scrutiny and fixed-asset schedules
WhyThe task list, the number of clients and the size band replace the single word 'internship'.
- Before
Bank reconciliation work
AfterReconciled 6 bank accounts for a trading client with about 2,300 monthly entries and traced 11 unmatched items to 2 recurring posting errors
WhyVolume, count of exceptions and the cause found. The cause is what an auditor values.
- Before
Excel work for clients
AfterBuilt a 12-sheet Excel workbook that matched a client's sales register to its filed returns and flagged 28 mismatches for follow-up
WhyTool, structure, comparison and output, in one line.
- Before
Knows financial ratios
AfterCompared 5 years of margins for 3 listed FMCG companies in Excel and explained why one operating margin fell 4 points while its peers held steady
WhyShows analysis and a conclusion, not just that ratios were known.
Professional exams: say exactly where you are
State the stage you have actually reached, such as 'CA Intermediate, both groups cleared, November 2025'. If you have only registered, say so, and if a Final attempt is in progress, say that. Never use wording that implies a qualification you have not completed. A background check compares the claim with the record, and a mismatch can end an application that was otherwise strong.
Tools, and clarity
List Excel (pivot tables, lookups), Tally Prime and any ERP you have used, each evidenced in a bullet. For analyst-style roles, write lines in a problem, action, result order and keep them short. Errors in numbers or spelling hurt more in a finance resume than anywhere else, so read the page aloud before you send it. The structure for a fresher page is covered in resume format for freshers.
Before you submit: a short checklist
- I could not find a verified Deloitte format, so I follow the posting and keep one clean page.
- My internship or articleship names the period, the clients by turnover band and the tasks.
- Bullets carry counts of entries, accounts, schedules or exceptions.
- My exam progress is stated exactly, with no wording that implies a completed qualification.
- Excel, Tally and any ERP I list each appear in a bullet.
- Every figure and every sum has been re-checked.
Questions people ask
Does Deloitte expect a particular resume format?
We found no verified template or system detail for it. Use a clean single-column format with standard headings, and follow the posting's instructions.
Should I list my CA Intermediate marks?
List the stage first, then marks only if you are comfortable being asked about them. State them exactly as the result shows.
Does articleship go under Experience?
Yes. Treat it as a job: the firm, the period, clients by turnover band, tasks and findings. See the CA articleship samples for how this reads across levels.
I am a B.Com graduate without CA. Can I apply for analyst roles?
Whether a role accepts you is stated in its posting. For the resume, show audit-like or analysis work, a project with numbers, and tools such as Excel and Tally.
