Anyone here familiar with the hiring process of KPMG consulting in Van? Had a partner interview on Nov 21, thought the feedback was positive but haven't heard back yet (no rejection/offer). Is it something normal or the interview just didn't go as well as I thought?

It's an experienced hire for an SC role. I saw the posting is still open atm, and my guess is that the recruiting team is comparing candidates since competition is higher due to recent layoffs.

Thanks in advance!

That might just be the case. KPMG is a hug company after all. How long have you been waiting for a call back since the interview? It would probably take 2 to 3 weeks or even 4 weeks maximum. I would definitely send a follow-up after the 3rd week.

Yea I guess the fact that we're close to Christmas didn't help with the internal timeline either...Thank you for the advice!

Have you followed up at all? November 21st wasn't that long ago, so they could very well still be considering your candidacy, but following up with the recruiter will reinforce your interest and give you an idea of what to expect. Best of luck!

No, I have not, was waiting for the 2-week mark. Thank you!

Curious, what are you expecting for comp?

Probably near the lower end of their SC band. Salary isn’t a major driver for me.

Probably late to the party, and assume you’ve heard back, but what’s the group? Assuming you mean an advisory group since you called it KPMG Consulting vs audit/tax.

I wouldn’t say huge company is a reason since each of the advisory groups has a dedicated experienced hiring manager.

They may have had a bunch of candidates and/or just moving very slow to hire the right person.

DM me if you still haven’t heard back (Director in Advisory).
