I believe if the loans are non-stafford interest accrues.

I had to pause my repayments this month because of job-hunt.

They dropped the interest rate to 0% on all Federal student loans. So you won't accrue interest while in deferment right now.

Unfortunately a lot of student loan debt is not in federal loans.

I just checked, they put it on a 0% interest until further notice. What a relief! You should have seen my severance package lol, peanuts.
