If there weren't any places I'm sure KPMG would have contacted you. It is also possible to check on their website, go to start the application process and you can look up which entry routes are still available.

That doesn't mean anything. Deloitte put up that they had no places left in london when they had only filled half of them. It just means that they have enough good people on interviews etc to fill them. If you've been offered an e-tray there is probably still a place for you if you're good enough.

Deloitte are weird though. They totally screwed me over. I passed my interview (apparently did really well) but they told me they'd already invited too many people on to the next stage and could I "hold" for them. I waited for about a month then told them I couldn't afford to wait any longer or else would lose KPMG.

Really very displeased with them over that. Why make me traipse into London and lose a days work/wages when they didn't have places available??? Really a very poor attitude.

Anyways, lets us know how it goes bright shadow!

I take it that no-one else has gotten a place then?

Its not just Deloitte, that is exactly what happened to me with KPMG, they filled all of their places with their first assessment centre and I was interviewed only just before it, so even though I passed the interview I didn't get a place. Its just how first come first served works really and obviously if they didn't get enough people from the assessment centres then they wouldn't have had to go back to the start to get more people because they'd already interviewed some.

I'm still taking positives for it as it was just the internship and at least next year I know if I apply earlier then I should be able to get through to the assessment centre if I want to apply to KPMG.

I will be working in Tax in London for KPMG this summer as an intern, as long as I dont get into an investment banking or trading internship. If I do get an offer from a bank, then I won't.
yeah ill let you know how it goes, just pm (anyone) closer to the date....i do think they sometimes string you along before telling you theyre full....i applied to late for EY and when i logged on it said the place is no longer available...deloitte i passed the test but they said they had too many applications and will not be carrying it on or something
