I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at KPMG (San Francisco, CA) in Nov 2014
Interview
Applied through campus recruiting system. Got interview appointment after 1 week. First round interview was with a partner and really easy. Basically we just chat about my experiences, skills, and a lot of other things. Then got an on-site superday. Interviewed with two people, one partner and one manager. Basic behavioral questions, nothing more.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time you were encountered with a challenge
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at KPMG (Singapore)
Interview
After submitting my CV, there was a virtual interview and they asked a market sizing question + why I wanted to join the specific department. They also asked about stuff in my CV and it was overall pretty manageable, they don't expect you to know much as an intern.
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.
