As a student that's just about to graduate [from post-secondary], I was unclear about the work that I would have to do at a large firm such as KPMG. The virtual program has helped me gain an understanding of the type of work that I will be expected to do. It has also helped me identify and develop some skills that are relevant in the workplace.

I thoroughly enjoyed the five tasks [in this program] as they gave me a better understanding of what auditors do every day. I was exposed to both the qualitative and quantitative aspects which I learned from. I also am more knowledgeable about the technologies available to me.
