Scroll to see replies

Waiting for a phone call. Been made an over offer and so I'm hoping that someone has chosen to go to university or not made the grades.
Should get a call today

Fingers crossed

It's not totally bad news then, you've got a place for next year which is good.

Can someone explain to me what's the difference between this KPMG scheme and just doing an accounting and finance degree then doing ur ACA or whatever?

This scheme is more for people who aren't certain in what they want to do. Or for those who want to work within kpmg but not accounting

If your not certain what you want to do, the degree is the far better option. The very thing this scheme does is pigeon hole you into accounting!

Has anyone here started the 360 apprenticeship scheme? just wondering what your thoughts are and what you can expect when you complete it?

I've got a telephone interview tomorrow for the September 2016 intake. Thanks so much for the information in this forum, it was really helpful in preparing for the interview! For anyone who has started the KPMG 360 programme, how's it going so far?

I started the KPMG360 programme this September just gone and I am really enjoying it so far.

The programme is 3/6 years in length depending on whether you want to step off at the technician level or continue onto the professional levels and complete your professional qualification for example ACA, CTA etc.

Throughout the programme, you have different placements in different areas of the business (audit, tax and advisory) and these placements will help you to decide what area of the business you wish to specialise in.

Once you have completed the six years, you should be ready for promotion as an assistant manager and can eventually work your way up to as high of a position as you wish within the business.

Any more questions, just ask! :smile:

Hi Stephanie,

I hope your telephone interview went well.

I started the KPMG360 programme in September this year and so far, it is going really well.

I am nearly at the end of my first placement and have learnt so much already.

If you have any specific questions, please do let me know.

Good luck with your application!
