Topic: 2nd interview at kpmg--please need help

I wrote my test 28th jan 2009, passed it & put in 4BPS, went 4my 1ST interview by april & was invited 4my 2nd interview sumtimes around may all last yr 2009. Till date i hv not heard from them. I dont really understand KPMG. I followed up & was told my issue wld b resolved soonest. I received a call from them asking me if i was told i was succesful after my 2nd interview which i said no, cos i was only told they wld get back 2me. For the poster who needs help 4ur 2nd interview under BPS, dis is wat i hv 4u. At ur 2nd interview wit kpmg under BPS, u wld meet wit titi adewusi, she is the manager of BPS. Expect questions lyk why do u want 2work 4us, what values wld u add 2us, lets meet u, wat are ur strengths & weakeness, etc. These are normal interview questions, so dont b scared. 2ndly, u shld hv stuck wit ur ITA, i am not tryin 2discourage u but BPS was a wrong choice 4u. An insider told me its a very difficult unit 2get in bcos BPS are not doing gud biz 4now, thats y they hardly take. Its BPS dat has kept me on d sidelines till now while my frnds that chose audit & tax hv already started wit them last yr september.U shld hv changed 2internal audit & risk mgt. I happen 2b on d waiting list under BPS. I am sorry if my help is coming late. I registered wit naijahotjob 2mnts ago but just got created by admin while i hv bn waiting for months 2b signed on & i bliv there are lots of people out there who are well & better informed but cannot contribute cos they've not bn created by admin.

Pls im havin my 1st interview wit kpmg nxt week. Can anyone enlighten me on familiar questions i cld be asked. Gzl pls assist me

What unit r u going for?

@doziej84: it depends on the department to which you applied. If u applied to BPS, Tax, or Audit,etc then you should expect a scenario such as (Constructing a tower with old newspapers. Its a group/team work exercise. They only want 2assess ur team work spirit which includes wat r u inputs during d tower constructing exercise, were u active or dormant, did u introduce urself 2ur team members b4 u started off d building of the tower, did u clean up ur environment after d exercise. These r some of d tins dey wld assess & rate u on.) as described by @biggerboyze. But if you applied to ITA like I did, then you won't encounter something like that. Prepare your self for general interview questions like "Tell me about yourself" which would mostly be the 1st question. Overall, be composed & try to be confident.

Gzl & biggerboyze, i applied for iTA & energy services

@gzl and biggerboyze; I applied for 1st-Audit, 2nd-Tax, 3rd-...Risk Mgt
I was just invited for my first interview tomorrow friday, I just pray I get a response b4 I leave home, if not I guess I have to make do with wat I have gotten from your former posts

Sorry i'm late. u can make up wit previous threads-Also, know des terms Audit, Mkt & Bank Capitalization & Eco recession

@Biggerboyze; thanks all the same
I guess it will come on handy during my second stage, this first stage was a one-on-one thing, more of getting to know you thing, your aspirations, drive, passion, strengths and weaknesses, what to do under different hypothetical situations...on a general note it was fun!
