As someone with very limited knowledge on tax work, I struggled with being thrown right into the work but I did appreciate that it really allowed me to figure out things and fend for myself in terms of resource collecting and analyzing data. I do think some of the data was a bit harder to find and that led to some frustration that made the tasks take a bit longer for me to do.

What I really enjoyed about this simulation was how effectively it bridges the gap between complex tax theory and practical, real-world data analysis. I was able to critically think of solutions, trial and error, and then compile my results and findings. It gave me a sense of work I would be doing in tax at KPMG.

I liked that the simulation gave me a feel for what the day-to-day work of a first-year tax associate may look like. It helped me better understand how research, Excel, problem-solving, and tax calculations can all work together in real projects. I also liked that the tasks felt realistic and hands-on instead of just reading information.
