I applied through college or university. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at KPMG (New York, NY) in Sep 2011
Interview
I had phone interviews with audit managers at the office I applied for. I was able to get the opportunity through campus hiring. After passing the phone interviews, I visited the office and had interviews with partner and HR personnel. They were very professional and polite.
The interview process includes an application review, online assessments, recruiter screening, behavioral and technical interviews, and sometimes case studies or partner interviews, evaluating communication, problem-solving, technical knowledge, and cultural fit.
Smooth interview process that took only a week. The interval of the two interviews were short. Both the hiring manager and the Team Manager that interviewed me nice and approachable.
Easy going and straight foward a good combination between technical skills and behavioral question. Some of the queestion related to accounting and audit question and some related to our attitude
