@C1, please explain what you mean by "not to mention KPMG". I'd prefer a solid business case/facts rather than the typical firm bashing BS on here which makes you sound like an uneducated idiot.

Did you get an interview? They look down on Big4 dude... Not to mention KPMG

Interviewed with them before...OCR/analyst level...honestly really weird interview: one market sizing + behavior interview, one casual talk/case (they didn't allow me to take any notes and didn't ask me to break down the issue, mostly just brainstorming) didn't get in and don't feel I would want to go either..

Also based on what I heard, nation-wide, mostly PE DD, education, and consumer...not sure about M&A..they didn't mention much during info sessions or interviews

Anyone knows the chances of location being changed after receiving the offer and getting tagged to a project?

I have not yet accepted the offer.
