3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

The programme is very well planned and is accessible. Feel welcomed at the company and everyone is kind and welcoming. Nobody judges you for not being able to do things which allows personal progression as it is harder to thrive in a hostile environment.

9a. Would you recommend KPMG to a friend?

Yes

9b. Why?

Has aided my personal development as well as career development. An enjoyable place to work and it isn't as strenuous as people describe, nobody expects an apprentice to be able to help do everything, you are taught to one day be able to.

10. What tips or advice would you give to others applying to KPMG?

Be honest and authentically yourself as it is harder to make a good impression and make new friends when you are trying to carry a persona that isn't yours.
