Update from the KPMG HR -

"As you know, all of the feedback has been great but at this time we do not have an available client project to place you. I imagine this will change shortly, but understand if you are unable to wait until that time."

Do you think I can expect them to get back to me in a month or two. I am actually dissappointed that they have gone ahead with all 3 rounds of interview and now stating that they do not have a role ☹️

This is for Functional QA (Sr. analyst) position.

Don’t wait on them. Interview elsewhere. They may or may not get back to you.

I literally just had to do this with someone I want to bring on. We fully intend to make the offer but don’t want them sitting on the bench. Leadership wouldn’t approve the req without a client either.

Don’t stop interviewing, but also don’t take it as an indicator of their lack of interest to bring you on board.

Thank you.

Likely the group has a temporary hiring freeze due to bench. May take few good months before they get back to you or even longer.

Knowing first hand how incompetent KPMG recruiting is, don’t expect them to ever get back to you. Likely they will close your file, forget you, or another recruiter will reach out to you separately for a phone screen lol.
