The Role
The Company
Really lovely. Quiet because it was summer, but everyone was so friendly and acted like a family!
If you want to be working on clients, you have to make sure you keep asking for them. However, when you were assigned to clients, the teams were so organised, having a complete timetable of what you needed to do and everything set up for you.
They spent a lot of time trying to give me experiences I had never had before: attending investor meetings, attending client meetings etc.

I don't neccessarily want to go into the service line that I worked in at KPMG, but KPMG have allowed me to be flexible and switch my interview to what I want accordingly.
