Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
Each of the insight days were fairly different. The first insight day was full of group exercises and networking sessions. The second day was full of networking opportunities and the shadowing a KPMG employee. Then the final day was an assessment centre that was made up of a group exercises and a 1-on-1 interview. Across the first 2 days we were also given prep for the assessment centre where we were taught KPMG's values and what to expect.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
We were given a lot of opportunities to speak with employees from our chosen programme both senior and junior. Speaking to the employees gave me a great insight into what to expect the company and a bit more into the role.
