Kick Start Your Career
The KPMG Graduate Program is your first step in shaping a career full of meaningful work that will help shape our collective futures.
It's with this common purpose you could join the KPMG team to help companies plan sustainable pathways to value and growth.
We foster a diverse, inclusive and forward-thinking culture, with our people giving their time and specialisation to help communities grow and prosper.
Our Programs offer you plenty of opportunities to further your professional and personal development. From working overseas, networking with our global businesses and training. You'll be supported and encouraged to explore your new skillsets as you work on a range of challenging business problems with some of the most exciting companies in Australia. Through our Graduate Learning Pathway you'll be assigned a mentor who will give you all the guidance you need to launch your career.

Pros and cons of working at KPMG Australia
Pros
Lots of other grads so plenty of social opportunities with people your age.
The flexibility of work-from-home vs in-office is terrific.
The team I have joined have been very welcoming, and the expectations are very reasonable.
Good on-the-job learning and exposure to a variety of clients.
The experience provided and the reputation of the firm's talent in the external market.
Cons
There is an underlying trend of long work days from all levels of the firm.
You are dependent on the market swings; you can go a few weeks or months without meaningful work or be extremely busy.
Promotion appears to be locked in to tenure, i.e. one year, two years, not based on performance or knowledge.
Virtual Graduate Program learning is unengaging.
