“At first, I hesitated to apply for this scholarship but I gave it a try. I got excited every time I received emails from KPMG informing that I passed to the next round, and, finally, I got this scholarship. I sincerely thanks to KPMG for giving me this great opportunity to explore and widen my perspective in my career path.
