I applied online. I interviewed at KPMG (Nueva Delhi) in Mar 2022
Interview
I appeared for an interview for the role of Business Associate in KPMG Global Services Gurgaon. There were 2 rounds of technical interview and the experience with the team was good. However, my experience with the HR was way far than good. She offered me a salary of 7.5 - 7 lpa with joining bonus of 1-2 lac, but after I cleared both rounds of interview, she brought the offer to 6.5 lpa with 50k joining bonus. It was not even 10% hike on my previous salary. Hence, I rejected the offer. Later on, she contacted me again to appear for one more round of interview for same role but in different team and in that case the hike was not even 5%. I requested for a standard hike of 30% and they ended up rejecting my candidature. It was a total waste of time and energy.
Completed three interview rounds: HR call, Round 1, and Round 2. Interviewers were friendly, focusing on guesstimates, PORTER/PESTEL analysis, current affairs, and questions primarily based on my academic projects overall.
Had three interview rounds. Interviewers were polite and professional. Questions included introduction, CV-based, analytical, current affairs, case study, guesstimates, and market entry. Overall, the interview was structured and not too difficult.
