I applied through college or university. I interviewed at KPMG
Interview
Went through university's recruiting process. Was in a target school, but had a below average GPA for Big 4. Networked my butt off with all 4 and secured Round 1s with 3 of the 4. Heard back from KPMG within a week for 2nd round. 2nd round was office tour, met Partners, Managers and Staff. Office tour is mostly that, an office tour, with 2 back-to-back 30 min interviews with Senior Managers/Partners in the middle of the day. Behavioral questions for all interviews, if you're going into auditing thats just how it'll be for all Big 4 interviews. Heard back 3 hours after I got back from the tour.

Interview
Applied through my local University. However my university recruits heavily and are a BIG 4 magnet. In my honest opinion you should always try to go to all info sessions and socials so that you can network. As a transfer to a top 25 uni and top 5 accounting program i only regret not networking. My gap was not bad 3.5 but if i networked life would have been SOOOO much easier during the recruiting process.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at KPMG in Oct 2014
Interview
I was selected to the first round interview with KPMG on campus. It last about 30 mins. All are behavioral questions. And interviewer left a long time for me to ask him questions. So prepare at least 5 questions to ask. Within a week, I got the second round interview invitation.
