Hi,

As per title, is it ok for a couple (bf and gf, or, husband and wife) to work in same department in an accounting firm (big 4 or "branded" medium firms) from the firm view?

and, if u attending an interview, and u know that if u pass the interview, u will be allocated to a department that ur partner currently work in, would u inform the interviewer regarding this matter?

Thanks.

ya definitely this is the case....i'm currently working in an accounting firm and attending an interview with other firm which my gf currently work with, 1stly i duno that i will be allocated same department with her, but once i know the interviewer's name who is going to interview me, he is a manager from my gf's department....so means that i probably will be allocated to same department with my gf if i pass the interview....

so do i need to inform the manager regarding this matter during the interview?

I'm fresh grad (my gf oso), interviewing for audit associate position...

sorry for not replying for so long time, tomolo will be my interview with the firm, i think i will tell the interviewer regarding the matter and request to put me in different department...coz i oso think that a couple stay in same department will have many problem...work itself edy tired...have to maintain the relationship in the office even tired...hehe..
