I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at KPMG (Milan) in Dec 2011
Interview
High level of English language is required (C1 / C2). The assessment will be almost entirely in English, starting from a language test (computer-based) and then a brief personal presentation. After that it's required the creation of a short powerpoint presentation about a selected topic followed by the discussion of it. The final step of the interview is a one-to-one chat with a recruiter.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What kind of technological innovations (referred to ICT) will we see in the future?
My interview process went smoothly and required little to no preparation. The questions were all general in nature and were just an overview of my resume. Very low stress interview process.
It was an hour long with 2 hiring manager and HR. Whole process was like one round to offer. This spanned around 2 weeks in total from HR reach out to offer letter.
The interview process at KPMG was straightforward but rigorous. I completed an online assessment, followed by a video interview, and then a panel interview with case questions. The team was professional, and the timeline was reasonable, taking about a month from application to offer.
