KPMG will often conduct a second interview or invite top candidates to visit their office. Be sure that you understand the timeline for second-round programs and make sure that they do not conflict with existing commitments (additional interviews, academic and personal commitments, etc.). Be honest with the employer. As a second-round candidate, the firm has a strong interest in you and wants to make sure that you are a good fit. Other points to consider:
- Be fair to the employer and other candidates and accept a second-round interview only if you are seriously considering the position.
- Once you commit to an invitation, do not cancel. You may have a conflict in dates, so choose wisely.
- Ask what the next round entails and prepare yourself to meet additional personnel.
- Continue to research the employer and prepare questions that will help you differentiate between employers.
- Communicate with the employer as questions and issues arise.
