This is basically how it goes
Test: Gmat with current affairs (go thru page 58 n 59 on the nairaland thread for likely questions) Go with a calculator and all other necessary documents. Go early so u 're not tensed. If you are writing at the towers, then it's a paper based test not a computer based test.
Essay: Do u think that a person's childhood from the age of zero to twelve are the most important Give reasons But the essay questions keep changing Parent or friends who has more impact on a child. Give your reasons. Which culture in nigeria do u think other countries should emulate. Describe the custom or culture n give reasons. Those are some of the essay questions but they keep changing .U would be given 30mins to write the essay.Use 5mins to gather ur thoughts.I don't think they will set something u won't be able to write about. Adequate preparation is key. For the essay, follow the normal procedures for writing an essay: An introduction, the body and the conclusion.Give clear points or reasons.
BAT: this is a situational judgment test. It shows what you would do in any particular business situation, also called the business awareness test. Endeavour to tailor your responses to kpmg core values. if u don't know them, Google can help u. When the time comes, if I have mb, I can send u study packs for the BAT.
DOCUMENTATION: nothing serious here. Careful in filling the form. Select the unit u want. Audit takes in the largest, followed by tax. Then the rest which take in small numbers and are competitive to get in. IARCS, TA, MC n FRM. Fraud investigation is for all the lawyers in the house.
AC : which is assessment centre is basically three stages here. Chances of getting dropped is a bit high. First stage: there is a panel interview, be confident, just ignore the faces of those panel interviewers. learn your final year project , find a link between ur course of study and the unit u 're applying for, why kpmg, what do you know about the unit u re applying to, what stories ve u heard about the unit, what your unit is about, what motivates you,tell us about urself in a way that makes me want to pick u over the others that I have heard so far, then some scenario based question, greatest challenges n how u ve overcomed them, ur strengths n weaknesses, what stands u out as a kpmg person .
the second stage: the one minute presentation which is key, prepare well, something about your greatest acheivement or someother topic but you would be given time to prepare for it and i believe it something u can talk about current happenings in the society n the likes, stick to one minute n pass the info,cos more than a minute n u will be sure to be thrown out from the interview place. (just kidding stick to a minute ),
Third stage is the group test, listen to the instructions. try not to overshadow others, make sure u 're heard, if u see someone isn't speaking, try n draw them into the conversation, like let's hear what this person has to say, time conscious too n select one person to keep the time n one other to put down ur group's ideas. select your team leader, one who would present the solutions at the end, a time keeper and some to me record of the ideas being broughtup to solve the task. know kpmg's core values n tailor ur answers n line with its values n Its vision and the full meaning of kpmg.also 've a question to ask them at the end. you will hear do you have any question for us. ask questions like how I life like working for kpmg, are there any opportunities for job rotation n how will my performance be assessed. and pray that's very important.
PI: more like a continuation of AC. Each partner is different. So expect different questions. You can get the why kpmg,why a particular unit. Issues in the country. Devaluation of the naira, tax regulation, accounting standards, fuel subsidy and the likes. Just be calm and smile.
For those in tax, There is usually a head of tax interview after the PI or partner interview.
I hope it helps you. See ya tomorrow Please can you send the gmat past questions to email. .. Amataking@gmail.com... Thanks. |
