KPMG has welcomed more than 10 graduates and school leavers to its team this summer HR Partner Debbie Smith said ‘Graduate recruitment plays an essential role in meeting the firm’s long-term global growth strategy across all our functions – audit, tax, advisory and internal firm services. The competition for top talent is fierce, but in a revitalised global labour market, we’re seeing plenty of enthusiasm for careers in accountancy, particularly with the opportunity for international experience, which we’re able to deliver.’
