I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at KPMG (London, England) in May 2019
Interview
First was the group exercise where there were 5 rounds. The first round was to design an idea based on the case study given, second round was to come up with an advert to prompt the idea. Third and fourth round was based on technology and the final round was how we could improve the idea with hindsight.
After the group exercise, there was a written exercise where we were given an hour to a report from a 20 case study. We had to pull out strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats.
Final assessment was the partner interview, which was conversational and related to KPMG.
