KPMG 2023 Graduate Programme

Hi everyone, KPMG's 2023 roles are now open for application. I don't think there's a thread yet for this year so I'll get this started. Feel free to discuss anything you want, and good luck!

I just completed the "Delivering Outcomes" video assessment one, defo one of the more abstract video assessment's I've ever done. They told me the first AC is on the 25th which is interesting how quickly after the tech roles opened! I'm going for D&A Deal Advisory in London!

Any advice on the questions asked or the general types atleast?

Prepare for a job simulation with video elements rather than a VI. Think how you would introduce urself to a C Level executive and sell yourself quickly

In total or for KPMG? I've applied for around 50 (but about half of those are throwaway applications that i've only used about 10 mins of my time on. For KPMG afaik you can only apply for one

How many questions do you get? do you get unlimited preparation time? What type of qs are there?

I applied to over 100 places before getting one acceptance … Though some at that point aren’t specifically graduate roles cause I was getting desperate haha

Yeah what alexgmt said. Also brush up on writing professional emails and balancing multiple perspectives, for example in an argument

May I know which role did you apply for? Read on some other forums that someone who applied for risk and regulation also got waitlisted for VI. Can’t quite believe this is happening whilst the other firms that opened their applications much earlier are still sending AC invitations lol

I got waitlisted too. I only did the delivering outcomes on Thursday.

I think we should take it as positive. People have been blatantly rejected at this stage so don't give up!

For ref, I applied for tech in London
