Please can someone who has an answer to this reply me? I am at the benchmarking stage and haven't been contacted since then. Every other stage went by so fast. Unfortunately this stage is taking too long. We actually ought to be told if KPMG is still recruiting people in its Audit division for September this year or not, so that we can know what to do.

Hello folks, jst tot it wil b ideal dat I share my a.c n p.i experience on this thread for d benefit of odaz.
Assessment center: U are xpected to be on a suit. Guyz shld wear 9ce hair cut, a tie n look well shaved. Girls can wear a skirt/trouz suit. My advice is that u wear a plain shirt and dnt dres Color blokin, color riotin or coat of many colors. This stage involves three exercises (critical reasonin, group assessment n one-on-one exercise). If u do not perform wel in one part of these exercises, dnt get discouraged jst try ur best to do beta in oda exercises to boost ur performance cuz its d cumulative of d 3 exercises that wil b used to conclude weda u scaled thru d a.c stage n can proceed to d p.i stage. Please ask d instructor questions if u are nt clear on any instruction.
@Critical reasonin: Here, u wil b given 70 questions in form f shapes. Each ques has a shape pattern n u wil b xpected to carefuli study, analyse n understand d pattern for u to know d particular shape dat wil continue/complement d pattern. U can study ur gmat shapes jst to gve u an insight of how to understand shapes pattern but d questions I saw, dnt tink dey are gmat (my opinion doh)
@Group assessment: here, u n ur grp membaz wil b given a puzzle to solve. It can be in a format where u wil b given 7 different names of individuals, 7 diff types of hobby, 7 diff types of occupation, 7 diff phone types, 7 diff car types, 7 diff pet types n 7 diff food types, then u n ur grp membaz wil be xpected to find correctly each individual’s hobby, occupation, phone type, car type, pet type n food type. Dis, u n ur grp members wil b required to do widin 20 mins. The idea f dis xercise is jst to test ur ability to contribute to team wrk n ur ability to b productive especially under pressure so it is nt a must ur grp gets all d ansas but get to a reasonable extent (my opinion doh). So please my advice is that u do not quarrel wit ur grp membaz, jst contribute ur own quota. Please make sure u are talking n nt mute cuz u wil b in frnt f four observers dat wil b scoring d performance f each individual in the grp. Also, pls wen talking, dnt talk for talkin sake or to talk dwn ur grp membaz, make sure u make a positive n meaningful contribution. Anoda advice I wld gve is dat ur grp shld av grp leader n a time keeper that wil hlp ur grp to be time conscious cuz a member f ur grp on behlf f d entire grp wil av to present to d observers d result ur grp had so far under dat same 20 mins. Again, pls grp memebaz shldnt drag for d position f time kipa, grp leader or hu to present d result bfor d obsevers (it dsnt min grp membaz shld shy away frm such responsibilities/positions).
Dnt get scared f dis exercise cuz u wil b given clues in form f cards on how to solve d puzzle. In my grp, we were eight persons. We were gven general clues (cards) n personal clues (cards). The rule was that d general clues (cards) cld b passed round n shown to any grp memba but d personal clues (cards) cannot be passed to anoda grp memba to see but u can read out wat is contained on the personal card for ur grp membas to hear so as to enable u all solve d puzzle. You wil b given a plain sheet f paper (A4 paper) for u to write on and ur question paper that u are nt supposed to write on else u can b disqualified.
@One-on-one exercise: here, only u wil face d four observers again. It can last up to 15 mins or more so be prepared cuz u wil ansa ques abt ur c.v n dat ur form u summited wit ur credentials. So be careful wit evry detail u put down wen fillin d form cuz some persons lie wen filin d form. My advice is dat u shld b trutful when ansarin dier ques cuz dey like it wen u r honest cuz honety is even among d kpmg core values. Jst knw dat for evry word on dat form, u might to be asked to xplain further if possible in a lay man’s language. Also wen ansarin dier questions try to talk abt ur achievements. Jst be relaxed, bold n audible (but nt over confident) wen u talk n always smile at dem yle talkin even douh dey ask u ques dat u n fil is anoyin cuz dose ques cld b asked to test ur temperament. Also make sure rid about ur school projct wrk n b current on wat is happenin in d society cuz dey asked me ques on ebola virus, also a frend f mine was asked if he knew d current trend f d financial market. God jst favored me, I was smiling thru out, I cld rememba dem askin me a ques dat “if chevron shld call me, if I wld nt leave kpmg”, I didn’t ansa o, I jst increased my smile….na so Baba God jst take hlp me, I use smile take cover up d mata. U shld also xpect ques like tel us abt ursef ( jst gve a quick sumry of ur c.v n ur family bakgrnd in 2 to 3 mins), define audit, y audit wen u studied anoda discipline, y kpmg, ur skill, ur strength, weaknes etc and u wil also be given d opportunity to ask dem questions.
Partner’s Interview: U wil b asked to dress formal but its more ideal to b on suit. There aint mch difrence btw dis stage n d one-on-one exercise at d a.c stage. Its jst dat here, u wil b interviewed by one person (a kpmg partner) so u wil av to b more careful. Most ques also came frm dat my form, abt my sch projct, my leadership potentials, tel me abt ursef, my skul grades, y audit, y kmpg e.t.c. In all, I sensed all d questions were jst to knw abt my personality and my ability to handle an auditin profession. Jst pray to God n hope for a 9ce partner (cuz some partner can ask ques to demoralize u….nt my partner doh bt dats wat a frnd f my said she xperienced). Jst b relaxed, confident n audible (bt nt ova confident) like at d a.c stage. Also dunno if dey look out for d door test (d way u open n close d door) bt I didn’t get it well. Also pls take note f how d seat is positioned bfor u sit down…so if u adjst d seat bfor u sit dwn, make sure u re-adjst it wen leavin cuz I 4got to re-adjst mine bt dunno if dey also check for that. Lastly dnt forget to smile n watch ur body language n ur manner f communicatn. I chose my wrds wisely cuz ur partner might read minin to evrytin u say. JST PUT GOD FIRST AND U WIL SUXED…..BEST WISHES.
