I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at KPMG in Sep 2019
Interview
Initially, I was contacted by a recruiter for an on phone screening. Very conversational and wanted to hear about my experiences, what I currently do, etc. About a week later I was contacted letting me know I had a phone interview with a manager which went well, this is where the bulk of technical questions were asked, along with some behavioral and situational questions. Interview was laid back, about 30 minutes, and went great.
The day after the phone interview, I was informed that I would be having a couple interviews on-site. These were less technical than the previous interview and focused more on “why KPMG” as well as some resume questions.
All-in-all, process took about 2 weeks and was very straight forward.

Interview
Typical interview process. Beforehand, employees were very candid about what to expect. The process was identical. First half is behavioral with the typical questions. Helps to have prepared examples concerning the general questions. Second half is "situational" rather than the standard case interview. More interested in how you think and arrive at an answer as opposed to the answer itself.
