@blank, I agree with, those were my thots also. , so u left pwc, are u still in a consulting firm?

@mcgboye , I think u r spot on on that. that ws the same line of reasoning I had. so would you say its more in line with core/mgmt consulting?
@mcgboye, @tos, @tbk147, if so, I have another questn for u regarding pwc as a whole. pwc sold their consulting practice(I think early 2000s) to ibm global services because there ws increasing pressure on them not to consult for their audit clients, but the issue was that they audited about 40% of fortune 500 companies, so telling them not to consult for the audit clients means their market was very limited hence the sale to ibm. My question is this, if pwc sold its whole consulting business to ibm, why do they still have an advisory consulting arm? I have a possible explanation which im not sure of but first, your thoughts.
thank you

@pussinboot. -- i jst took the test and passed. any pointers on the next stage of the interview?? what should i be expecting, what do they ask ? thanks.

hello house,

i received an email inviting me for a test with KPMG. id be happy to receive input as to how the test is structured and what to study.

Also most pple i've heard of taking jobs/doing interviews with KPMG usually go with the audit unit? What do you think of the advisory practice and can you enlighten me more of what their tasks there is like. Also does anyone know if kpmg is involved in system integration ?

your input would very well appreciated .

thanks

@ delta1,

hi, i just got invited for kpmg test. I would appreciate any pointers as to how to prepare for the test, the structure of the test and all. how many questions, how many minutes, on the average(in your opinion), should i expect to spend on each essay ?

Also i realise that many pple that start with kpmg go for the audit unit. i am interested in their advisory unit, particularly IT advisory. can you give me any info/input regarding your IT advisory practice. Also does kpmg conduct system integration??

thanks a lot for your anticipated assistance.

regards ,
