About You
The insight was a very informative experience as it provided me with the perfect platform to push on to the Summer Vacation Scheme. I met a number of employees, managers and partners which gave me an amazing insight into the type of work KPMG provided. It is certainly somewhere I can see myself working in the long term.
I felt highly valued due to the care and attention provided by the firm. For example, for our presentation competition, KPMG brought partners to help us create this, which was an invaluable experience.
I received exceptional guidance from KPMG. This ranged from a handbook which provided me with in-depth experience and insight into the type of departments on offer at KPMG, to face to face presentational insights.
As I study Business Management, I believe that the information provided at the Spring Insight Week helped me. The information provided about Tax had some overlap with the studies I am taking at Durham University and it was refreshing to hear this information first hand from the KPMG work colleagues.

Highly informative as I was made aware of KPMG's values, history and the help they provide to students in the long-term.
