I applied online. I interviewed at KPMG (Dublin, Dublin) in Nov 2015
Interview
The interview was a pleasant experience. The process was quite informal, which was a pleasant surprise. I was interviewed initially by two department representatives and then I was to meet with a partner of the company for an informal chat.

Question 1
Tell us about a time where you were faced with a confliction of opinions. How did you deal with this situation?
I went to the assessment centre which was the last stage in the graduate audit scheme. We first had an assessed group exercise (involving 4 people including yourself). We were given a topic and had to recommend which path KPMG should go down and then a partner interview which lasts around 30/40 mins
Submit an initial application then complete a monitored (video and audio) online assessment (Situational Judgement Test, logical, numerical) and strengths based video recorded interview. Final stage is an assessment centre in person.
