I have an interview coming up for KPMG FDD. Any insights? Is there a case study? Mostly behavioral?

They're completely understaffed so just need to be a warm body at this point.

Just make sure you can speak on your audit experience. Do some research on Quality of Earnings, Net Working Capital, and Net Debt items in terms of Due Diligence Reports and Deal dynamics.

Should be behavioral for first round and second round will likely be a case study (or just FDD topic questions).

I interviewed prior to covid so am unsure how they have adjusted since then.

Hi Fishes, I grabbed an offer at Accenture with 12 LPA fixed for Level 9. I'm not getting a retention offer from my current company at 13.5 lpa. How do I go about a counter offer with Accenture HR? Also tell me how to approach this situation smoothly.

If HR doesn't fulfill the counter offer, is it ok to accept 12 lpa fixed for Level 9 and when will I get a hike here and how much would it be approximately?
