I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at KPMG (Mumbai) in Jan 2013
Interview
Consisted of 2 rounds- GD & PI
GD- FDI in India. Boon or a bane. Simple topic. Needed brief understanding of commerce
since most of us were of the commerce backgroud
PI- Very genral. Show confidence. Your half way there :)
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Nothing much. Everything was easy if you keep your cool
Very straightforward interview with two people. A lot of questions in relation to tax law and tax regulations. They also asked several scenario-based questions to assess problem-solving skills and how I would apply tax principles in practical situations. The interview was professional and conversational, with opportunities to discuss previous experience and explain technical knowledge in detail. Overall, the process felt well-structured and focused on evaluating both technical expertise and communication skills.
I got a phone call with an invite to the interview. It was in person in their offices. It was intense, quite short about 20 minutes, and I was asked more questions about academics/school than I expected.
