The process took 1 day. I interviewed at KPMG in Sep 2010
Interview
They make it a point to get to know who you are and your experience. It's very important for them to understand your background and how your background and personality will fit within the firm. It was easy to talk about one's experiences, hobbies, things you like to do outside of work since it's a place where you'll be working long hrs so work like balance is important.
Three interview rounds: a recruiter screening, a manager interview, and a Managing Director/Partner interview. Each round combines questions designed to understand who you are, how you lead, and why you’re choosing KPMG.
Two rounds of technical interview and then HR communication
Audit base question
Previous experience
Basic Audit related scenario questions
The process took 5 days. Selected communication in 30 days
Result selectef
With one manager and one director, both behavioural and technical questions were asked, still manageable I think, and can prepare beforehand on resume base on the experiences, need to be familiar enough
