I almost always ask about the companies culture and what they do to make their employees feel valued. I feel like you can really gather a lot by their answer and sometimes when they fumble their way through, I already know that is not a place that I want to work.

What’s going to be my biggest challenge in the role?

That's a great question. I like to ask, how does the team communicate with one another? It allows me to showcase that team collaboration and communication is super important to me

Hi fishes,
Need your thoughts.
I am done with my client interview and it went well but they are asking me to come to gugaon location.
I am from Bangalore location.
I directly said to client that I can't since I have my family here.
When I inform this to my manager he is saying how come u say like this to client.according to kpmg policy u need to travel to anywhere to work.
This is not good right. What should be my reply to the client in such a case and how to handle manager on this?
