The Firm's Capture the Flag (CTF) was one of my first experiences with such competitions, and it proved to be incredibly enriching. It pushed me to quickly learn and apply new concepts while maintaining an element of fun and engagement. This experience played a pivotal role in my transition from a final-year B.Tech student to an intern with KPMG in India's CDIR team. Here, much like the CTF, you are continuously presented with new challenges that stimulate creativity and foster continuous learning.
