Question 1
Why do you want to work in KPMG and not in other management consulting firms?
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at KPMG (Dublin, Dublin)
Interview
Simple application followed by a 40min long interview. Split 50/50 from generic HR questions to competency questions. Lots of firm specific questions too. Got an acceptance call the next day. Interviewer was friendly and patient, gave lots of insight into how internship run there. Mostly positive experience

Question 1
How would KPMG help your career path. Accounting exams etc.
There was one behavioral back to back 30 minutes each for a total of 60 minutes. The interviews were comprised of standard behavioral questions. The interviews were with Managing Directors.
Two rounds, case interview for first round with behavioural, take home case for the second round, no behavioural. Very strange structure, but it might be dependent on your service line choice.
