I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at KPMG (Los Angeles, CA) in Jul 2011
Interview
Went very smoothly. Calling directly and getting to know a recruiter is a great option for those that don't have campus recruiting available to them. Staff was very friendly and helpful with answering any question I asked. This was my first interview so I can't compare with others, but there wasn't too much pressure nor any question that stood out as silly. Interviewed with four people: a partner, two managers and a director.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do you think your experience working independently would benefit KPMG?
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.
it was okayish, interviewed one-to-one with the audit manager, she's friendly and approachable and she asked quite few questions on audit, it was okayish, interviewed one-to-one with the audit manager, she's friendly and approachable and she asked quite few questions on audit
