      Administrative Assistant Interview

      Jan 19, 2016
      Anonymous employee
      Toronto, ON
      Accepted offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at KPMG (Toronto, ON) in Jun 2013

      Interview

      First they call you and ask you a few questions. Next they will ask you for your email and send you an online program that will test your exell, word, and powerpoint skills. Following you passing with a good grade you will be asked to meet the talent coordinator for an interview. After that you will meet with the performance manager of the specific group you have applied to, (tax, audit, advisory) for a 2nd interview and finally you will meet with one of the head partners in the group you would be working for and possible a senior manager or another admin in the group that you will be working closely with.

      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Calgary, AB
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I interviewed at KPMG (Calgary, AB)

      Interview

      One of those places that expects you to go through rigorous testing prior to even getting an interview just to offer you a salary below living wage. Waste of your time.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      They asked me to complete 30 mins of excel testing in addition to a personality test before being offered an interview.

      The process typically involves an HR phone screening, followed by one interview with a manager. The focus is on assessing organizational skills, communication, and professionalism. The role didn’t require a lot of experience.
