I applied through other source. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at KPMG in Oct 2014
Interview
I first put my resume through the company's online application system and was granted an interview with a conference. The interview at the conference was conversational, and not as difficult as I thought. The majority of the questions dealt with my leadership and teamwork skills. Afer this first interview I waited for 3 months before I heard anything back.
However, I was given a second interview at the actual office I preferred to work in. There were actually three conservative interviews during this process. All of the interviewers wanted to know my plans for my license, the extra thirty hours, and if I could see myself in the area for an extended period of time. The interviewers were very down to earth and easy to have a conversation with.
After my last set of interviews, I heard back 2 weeks later that they wanted to offer me a position.

Had a first round on campus and a second round at the office. The first round was with a manager, and the second round with a manager and a partner. Everyone is very nice and personable. During the second round, they really try to sell the firm to you.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at KPMG
Interview
I applied to actuarial internship programme 2015 UK online, passed the standard online tests, and was offered an interview around 1 month later.
The interviewer was very nice. The whole interview was 45 minutes, around 5 questions in total if i remember correctly, and at the end there is an opportunity to ask the interviewer questions. There were questions about team work and situations of high pressure, all revolving around the list competencies they sent you in an e-mail. Also there were a couple industry related questions. There are plenty of questions posted online for KPMG interviews.
