There's no other stage after the partner interview. Benchmarking is only a process whereby HR compares all successful candidates by juxtaposing your resumé, credentials, and performances at each of the stages of the recruitment process with that of your contemporaries.

This is usually done to ensure that the 'best' of all qualified candidates are selected from the pool of talents available for employment at each point in time (there isn't a foolproof assurance that this would be the case afterall, just a thing of professional judgment).

However, if the HR perceives that a person isn't good enough for his/her preferred unit due to better candidates vying for the same position, an offer to make an alternative switch to other units where there is/are available space(s) is usually made.

Don't fret too much over this brother. It shall come good. Bless you.

Called hr and dey said during d benchmarking dey select dose dat dey are sure are kpmg staff from those dat re not. Does dis mean some pple get droped seeing that no reply has come yet??

Hello, fellow nairalanders, I wrote the kpmg aptitude test in October 17 this year and I was told I passed. I chose FRM when I submitted my documents and my transcript has even been sent to them by my school. Has any one else who chose FRM been called for interview?

Been receiving several calls from nairalanders without any corresponding reflection in the volume of comments and contributions.
I do not think this is ideal as other applicants ought to learn from yOUR experiences. Directions may forthwith be strictly on the forum.

God bless us all.

Sorry guys, I've been very busy at work. To the subject of discourse, I think you guys need to exercise some patience. Benchmarking doesn't expressly imply that you're going to be offered employment, neither does it imply the reverse case. One thing is certain, and that is that everyone's gonna be called/mailed no matter the feedback. What benchmarking simply means is that you are being compared with other persons who made it to that stage and if the recruitment team have a reason to select somebody who just got to the same stage you've been for months, it's purely their judgment.

A certain friend (a nairalander) just called last night that she's been asked to come for her medicals after nearly a month wait. Please note that people still resume even after training commences. Some in December, others in March/April. My advise is, if you haven't been dropped yet, please wait patiently. I hope this suffices.

Thank you so much Mcstan18 for this piece of information! Following this thread I discovered that during your time you were also desperate like some people and you got finally called for medicals towards the end of August. I pray the same thing happen to some of us who have waiting for over a month!

A lot of people have given insightful tips on how to ace interviews at KPMG. Let me add one more: it could help you stand out if you know the full meaning of KPMG. I was asked during my AC and the panel was impressed that I got it.i
