I applied through college or university. I interviewed at KPMG (New York, NY) in Mar 2021
Interview
It was a two part virtual interview, back to back for 30 min each.
First one was somewhat formal, second one was informal. They asked a few behavioral questions, like how do you manage work life and school life, how do you deal with difficult team member, what did you do when you made a mistake and what you learnt from it, what’s your biggest accomplishment. Basically they want to see if you can work in a team and if you can carry in a conversation.
