The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at KPMG (Washington, DC)
Interview
This is why KPMG is the best. Here is what I did to receive my full time offer: 1) network with the campus recruiter before the recruiting events event start. This helps get your face in the room before a lot of applications come in. 2) Attend the recruiting events. This is simple because you want to see if this is the company you want to work for and it shows the recruiting team you're interested. 3). Apply. This is simple as it seems. Step 1 is crucial for this because this can separate yourself from the rest. 4) Campus interviews. Be yourself and study up on KPMG especially the federal practice if you're interested. STAR practicing as well. 5) super day aka second round. Be yourself again and you're almost out of the woods. 6) Offer! Overall, awesome and relaxing process by KPMG
I applied through other source. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at KPMG (Shanghai, Shanghai) in Aug 2015
Interview
Went through their winter audit intern interview and got the intern offer, but I declined it and went to another Big Four for winter. In the next summer, they notified me for directly entering into the manager interview, which should be the 2nd or 3rd round.
The manager interview consists of a case analysis, just a small case about to acquire a company or not, use some models to explain your logic thinking, did not require too much specialization in accounting or quantitative analysis. Then the manager just walked through my resume, and asked some of the former internship experiences that he is interested in.
The partner interview is just walking through your resume, ask you about some questions like why KPMG but not others.
Not very stressful.
