I honestly don’t know too many KPMG consultants. They seem nice. The ones from my undergrad b school that went there were the ones with 3.0-3.2s though. Similar group to those that went to Huron Protviti etc

A group of people who have a prepared answer for “the accounting firm?”

Oh KPMG 5, Accurate. But also, nicest people ever and great to work with. Been here 16years, masters degree with honors - finance/IT combo. Not sure what group is recruiting 3.0 averages...not in our office. Either way, hope you like it here!
