Just got my first interview with a consulting firm (KPMG)! It’s for an associate program delivery service position. Anyone know more about this?

This is a project management/PMO position. It is not consulting. Don’t let them fool you into believing otherwise.

Otherwise, KPMG is a great company.

It isn’t MC. They place it under that competency to attract talent. You will go and manage small to enterprise projects ranging from implementation to operations. In some cases you will be assigned to another competency and manage the KPMG project. It’s a good foot in the door. Do it if that’s your way in

I don’t know about that particular position. But I just joined as a Sr. and I like it a lot so far. Recruitment process was professional, felt my offer was honest and competitive, and there is a clear path to promotions. No complaints thus far. Good luck! Do a mock interview with family member or friend.

PDS is the PM (project management) function of the firm. Essentially you’ll be leased out to different groups to manage projects

It’s under MC yes, but you will be functioning as a project manager to the internal KPMG teams. Yes you will travel to the client site, but your “client” is really the KPMG teams. What you will be doing is 100% PMO (internal PMO to be specific), dealing with internal admin-related stuff like codes, billing, workpapers, etc.

Should I Go Back and Reneg? Recently I was offered a role as a Project Implementation Manager (In Retirement Services) .The salary range for Colorado residents was 65-89K. I’m located in NY so the recruiter said he would try to get me more. Ultimately he came back at 90K which is a bit inline with that I was seeing on Glassdoor but approx looks like I may leave 10-12K on the table. I accepted already but may get an offer from another HR company in account management around 90-100K. Need advice
