The interview process at KPMG Austria typically begins with an online application through their careers portal, followed by an initial HR screening interview conducted by phone or via Teams to assess motivation, cultural fit, and basic qualifications. Successful candidates are then invited to one or two interviews with managers or senior team members from the relevant department such as Audit, Tax, or Advisory, where both behavioral and technical questions are discussed, often including accounting fundamentals or situational case questions depending on the role. For graduate and internship positions, there may also be an assessment component such as a group exercise or case discussion. In some cases, a final conversation with a director or partner takes place before the offer stage, after which HR communicates the decision and may conduct reference checks.

First half of interview was with a manager about behavioural questions and second half with partner who gave a scenario and left the second half open for a conversation about the firm.
