I believe there is a question that asks if they can contact your current employer. I always choose No.

Confirmation of level and dates of employment.

Do they talk to your direct supervisor or HR?

If they do this, they will talk to HR. Also I believe kpmg sends out a letter of consent to you asking if you are okay with them responding to these inquiries which u have to sign(atleast this is what I got when I used to work at kpmg).

EY may reach out to your supervisor too if they are listed as your reference

Not sure of your source, but I know of several situations when a supervisor was contacted.

Hey Everyone!
I’m coming up on one year of working in consulting post under grad in a financial services vertical. I know I want to transition to corporate strategy down the road, but don’t have much interest in financial service strategy. Should I try and switch into a more applicable practice such as M&A or operations? Will I be able to break into corporate strategy without any past experience in that industry? I want to avoid getting pigeonholed into FS, but with COVID, don’t want to leave.
