Do you know someone who works there?

Cant speak to kpmg in Houston, but for preparation, I would get an understand of what the FDD team does, so be able to speak through a QoE, NWC, and Debt like analysis, and understand what types of items are typically add backs to EBITDA (non-recurring, non-operational, run-rate, normalization, etc)

On LinkedIn you can search people up based on their previous company and current location. So KPMG as previous employer, Texas as location, and current title as Financial Due Diligence. You’ll then find some people who left KPMG FDD to do FDD at another firm in Texas

I (Spring Boot + Angular, FS, 6 YOE) interview candidates at the product company I work for.

People just show up with no prep. I interview for 4-6 YOE and these people aren't even expecting to write a single line of code. Even questions like "find the lesser of the two angles between the two hands of a clock, given the time" or simple geometry problems that don't need DSA knowledge is too hard to attempt.

They claim they know Angular/React/Spring without knowing basic Javascript/Java. 😒

I joined IBM around year ago.

However in project i was treated as team member l. Initially i was okay as i thought i will be familiar with environment and later will take more responsibility.
But then they gave me release after few months.
No hike also this year.
Future also seems unclear as i feel low self-esteem seeing collegues my experience earning well and having better roles.
I really think joining IBM was wrong decision.
