I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at KPMG (New York, NY) in Feb 2010
Interview
The company came to our university for a job fair, where I met a few KPMG recruiters personally, and I applied through the career center within the university with a cover letter and my resume'. I was offered an interview, which was decently extensive, lasting about 30-40 minutes. I received a call about 2 weeks later from one of the recruiters who had both been on campus for the job fair as well as the interview process, inviting me to join the KPMG team. Advice I would offer: make sure to have a few questions of your own to ask them, and be personable, as they are looking for TEAM members, and not just busy bee workers.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Explain a time when you had overcome an obstacle with a team. Maybe a team member wasn't do their share of the work; how did you go about responding and overcoming.
Are you more of a follower, or a leader? If you're more of a follower or better as just a team-player as opposed to taking the lead, what would you do if you were put in a group, (whether at work or in school), where no one was a leader? If you're more of a leader, what would you do if you were put in a group with another leader?
Smooth interview process that took only a week. The interval of the two interviews were short. Both the hiring manager and the Team Manager that interviewed me nice and approachable.
Easy going and straight foward a good combination between technical skills and behavioral question. Some of the queestion related to accounting and audit question and some related to our attitude
I applied online. I interviewed at KPMG (Bengaluru)
Interview
It was average. General accounting terms. Foundation level. Interviewer are supportive.
First was a online test then technical round, the HR round was Salary discussion. Delay inbetween rounds and HR will ignore calls.
