I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at KPMG (Accra) in Oct 2021
Interview
The recruitment is a four-stage process comprising two aptitude tests, managers' interview, and finally the partners' interview.
The Managers' interview is quite robust and relatively more challenging than the partners' interview. Consequently, many people make the mistake of taking the partners' interview for granted which is the worst mistake to commit.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a time when you had to plan a project or event. In your response, indicate the following:
- How did you organise the project/event?
- What steps did you take?
- How did you plan to take into account any possible changes in circumstances?
- What was the outcome?
- What would you do differently next time?
During the partner interview, there will be more in-depth questions from the director/partner, and it may also include some 'irrelevant' questions when the interviewer is interested in different aspects of you (hobbies...)
