I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at KPMG (Sydney) in May 2019
Interview
Phone screening with in-house recruiter.
1st round F2F with 2 x HODs.
2nd round F2F with divisional director.
3rd round was online "cognitive testing" games.
No further contact.
Recruiter went on 3 weeks holiday without advising outcome of process. Eventually discovered it had been filled internally.
Very disappointing lack of respect/consideration from such a reputable firm.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Standard competency based Qs, nothing unusual.
I found the online 'cognitive testing" a bit ridiculous; basically just video games. Great if you're young or a game geek and have fast reaction times, scores suffer if you mis-click or have slower reactions.
30 minutes done virtually. Good time management. Interviewer was kind, transparent, and respectful. Timelines were concise and expectations for the role were clear. The interview was mostly behavioural, and answers were provided using the STAR method.

Interview
Very positive. Initial phone interview, followed by two face to face (virtual) interviews.
They were quick to respond and open to questions. Very open about the culture and expectations for the role
