I applied through university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at KPMG in Oct 2010
Interview
After submission of an application form online, the HR sent me a link for online tests which consist of one verbal test and one numerical test. After one week or so, I was asked to attend an interview at its office. It was an one to one interview with a senior manager. The interviewer was very friendly and he even prepared brochures to introduce the firm to me. No technical questions were asked.
The firm splits its clientèle into 7 broad industries. My advice is just be yourself. Tell the interviewer exactly what your area of interest is so that he/she can help to allocate you to the right department.
There are 2 different office buildings and the HR said they're renovating the offices. The location is convenient and the environment is quite condusive. Working hour is perceived to be longer than other big 4 but the pay is higher as well.
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
Two back-to-back 30-minute interviews, the first one with a partner and the second one with a director and the overall interview process was smoother than I expected. Mostly I was asked behavioral questions as I heard.
