    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.

    • The programme was targeted at young black students and graduates to give a peek into life at KPMG. We got to learn from and interact with employees and understood their roles and responsibilities. We got to learn about the different networks providing support for employees within the firm. We worked in small teams on a project which we presented to senior employees and received valuable feedback on. We truly had the KPMG culture expereince.
