I applied online. I interviewed at KPMG in Dec 2020
Interview
Very straightforward. Had a initial screen with a recruiter, two 30 minute interviews with two MDs and a final interview with a Partner. Questions focused on my industry experience and skills.

Question 1
Name a scenario where you had to use data to support a recommendation to a client?
The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at KPMG (McLean, VA) in June 2021
Interview
Seamless interview process from start to finish. Applied online and received a screening call from a recruiter based in South Africa who then connected me with another recruiter in Jamaica who scheduled another call with the head recruiter in the US for the specific practice in Advisory.
Call with the Head Recruiter went well, very conversational. She then scheduled a series of 3, 45-min video interviews with Director, Director, and Managing Director. These went well. Then spoke to the Partner and sealed the deal.
Everyone was welcoming, down to earth and seemed genuinely interested in me, my professional experience, and what I had to offer. Questions were entirely behavioral - they were interested in making sure I was a good fit and that I “could be a good, well-rounded consultant”.
All in all took maybe 2.5 weeks from first call to offer.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at KPMG in Mar 2021
Interview
Three interviews and the 2nd one is a case interview. Case interview are presentation to two managers. You present the case and got asked for every point you bring up . In general it is a very stressful interview.
