Collaboration and teamwork are at the top of KPMG's must-have traits when making hiring decisions. The interviewers want to see evidence that you possess the ability to collaborate with others.
Approach this behavioral-based interview question by providing a story-based example of when you were successful on a team-based project. Your example can be from either school, work, sports, volunteer, or everyday life. Deliver this story using the STAR answer method. STAR is an acronym for Situation, Task, Action, Result.

"In the first semester of my first year of university, my Commerce professor assigned a major group project, worth nearly 30% of our final mark. We were assigned groups of 4. In my case, our group was all strangers, which wasn't the ideal situation for such an important collaboration. In our first group meeting, I suggested that we should socialize and get to know each other rather than jumping right into the work. Everyone took the time to explain how they best study, research, collaborate and work; overall. This information was beneficial because it gave the group a better idea of how each individual operated. We established a comfortable connection, and the project kicked off with ease. We set a schedule of work and assigned project tasks to the group members' greatest strengths. In the end, our group succeeded by getting an A, and we created lasting friendships along the way."
