I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at KPMG (New York, NY) in May 2008
Interview
There were long lag times between successive stages of the interview process (i.e., initial phone conversation with recruiting manager, submitting resume to recruiting manager, 2nd phone conversation with recruiting manager, trip to New York for 3 in-persons interviews in a day, offer letter), but the people were very friendly and down to earth. They seemed to be extremely sharp and hard working but still to have some balance and perspective about it.

Question 1
There was a business case asking about how one would figure out the number of taxis in New York City. This was apparently based on an actual project the interviewer had worked on recently.
The process took 4 months. I interviewed at KPMG (Mountain View, CA) in May 2010
Interview
I began interviewing with the firm through campus recruiting. Since I'm recruiting for a winter internship, the recruiting process stretched out over a period of four months. All the professionals from KPMG I have met are exceptionally friendly, and I have been through a total of 4 1:1 interviews.

Name a situation where you had to work with a difficult relationship on a team.
I applied through college or university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at KPMG (Princeton, NJ) in Feb 2010
Interview
I applied through Campus Career services. The day before the interview the 8 candidates were invited to meet with some of the employees and get a short presentation about KPMG. It was very casual. The next day I went into the interview and was asked questions for about 25 minutes and then asked my own questions for about 15 minutes. The questions were basic questions and were essentially the same questions that were listed on the KPMG website. They had a quick response time after the interview and I read the rejection letter exactly one week after the interview. Despite not getting an offer, the interview experience was enjoyable.
