KPMG Second Stage Interviews, What Is It Like? by mcstan18(m): 8:53pm On Jul 19, 2012
Got a mail that I just crossed the first of three stages of interview at KPMG and that I would be contacted SOON for subsequent ones. I implore that more experienced friends in-house who have crossed this bridge in the past should please come to my aid as to the nature of these remaining stages of interviews. All REASONABLE responses will be highly appreciated.

Yours truly


The mail:
Dear ****,

Thank you so much for taking time recently to attend the interview with us, we enjoyed the discussions.

We are glad to inform you that you were successful in your recent interview. You will be contacted shortly for the next level of our recruitment process.

Thank you for your interest in KPMG.

Regards,

I've done that and found nothing striking. You could help by posting one of such links, I'd appreciate. As for the test, had mine in March and a repeat in April. Submitted my form in May and had my first interview last week(for audit). Scaled through that but weary of subsequent ones. Any help will be appreciated.

Don't know about MC but I sure know that a friend of mine for Tax was contacted though he couldn't make it cos of his current job assignment outside Lagos.

Re: KPMG Second Stage Interviews, What Is It Like? by esquanda: 10:02am On Aug 14, 2012
@yommy2sure, trust your interview went well. I haven't heard from them as per the partner interview, though I received their mail informing me of my success at the last stage i.e. the manager level. Still waiting to hear from them.
when was your interview?
Re: KPMG Second Stage Interviews, What Is It Like? by yommy2sure(m): 11:07am On Aug 14, 2012
@esquanda, i just did the 2nd today, well I think the partners are kinda busy and so they will alert you whenever they are less busy, we shld just be @ alert. Heard some have already completed theirs. Will surely give feed backs on this thread and you do the same. All the best!

will do that. but do you know if those that have completed theirs have also done the medicals?
Re: KPMG Second Stage Interviews, What Is It Like? by yommy2sure(m): 2:09pm On Aug 14, 2012
I really dont knw o. But from a source and from the amount of people doing interviews, it appears they need quite a handful,and unlike them, they r interviewing those whose service will be completed by october. A friend I met said his friend has completed his interviews and iv been told that he will be given an offer once hes done with nysc october although he hasnt been given any letter formally.i dont think the friend has done medicals though. Enjoy
Re: KPMG Second Stage Interviews, What Is It Like? by mcstan18(m): 12:30pm On Aug 20, 2012
Sorry guys, I've been away from NL for over 2weeks. I've had my manager interview but yet to be contacted since then unlike after my first. I just hope all is well o cos my interviewer was seemingly bent on getting me frustrated with his 'tackling' questions. This delay has got me thiking negatively lately but then, I leave everything in the hands of God. How has progress been for you guys?
Re: KPMG Second Stage Interviews, What Is It Like? by yommy2sure(m): 2:52pm On Aug 23, 2012

My people fear not just be calm, the partners interview is almost d same like d oda interviews, the partner will just try to pick your brain with brain teasers and ask about your family background, I wrote my test in jan and my partners interview was on july 24th, did my medicals on 26th july and have picked up my offer letter, see you guys in training school on the 10th of sept cheers, not to forget I am in forensic unit. See you guys

thanx for that and congratulations. will those of us that wrote the aptitude test in April and yet to be contacted for the partner interview join this Sept 10 batch? just wondering, considering the time it takes to get feedback on an interview, and September is almost here. Any ideas?

Wow!!! That's great news for you brother. Just a few questions please.
1. Do you actually know if some guys were dropped at any of the initial interview stages?
2. Can one possibly fail to make it past the medicals and how many were you guys on that day? Any for audit?
3. Did your letter state the duration of training?
4. Was it also stated to which state/branch you'll be sent to thereafter?
God bless you brother as I hope to seeing you there. Just keep waiting for us(lol).
5. What kind of brain teasers were you faced with? Their general nature wouldn't be bad anyway.

it's even possible to have two interviews and medicals in a space of one week. Just pray hard that you make it through to the next stage. Shalom!
Re: KPMG Second Stage Interviews, What Is It Like? by Chydoz1: 10:47am On Aug 28, 2012
The interviews are still ongoing but from what I heard dose for sept are concluding interviews dis week cos I takes about a week b4 d medical results are out. U can have 3 interviews in 3days like d case of my friend who went for medicals last week. People can be dropped at any stage so just keep praying and be consistent with what you filled in the bio data forms. The training is from 10th to 28th sept 9am to 5pm daily and state of posting isn't there. The brain teasers vary. Mine was the weight of a brick is equal to half a brick + 1kg, what is the weight of the brick. See you guys at the top.
Re: KPMG Second Stage Interviews, What Is It Like? by Chydoz1: 10:53am On Aug 28, 2012
Some ppl don't make it past the medicals oh! They test everything! All the tests you can think of! So just keep praying! Its actually a lovely package they have I pray you all suCceed and come share your testimonies here
