Got an email from PWC today that tells me my application is under KIV, aren't they hiring audit associate ?

what is KIV? They sent this to me:
We have reviewed your application vis-a-vis our immediate requirements and would like to inform you that we are not in a position to consider your application at this time.

Nevertheless, we will keep you in view and contact you should a suitable position arise.

What does this mean?

Hmm. I would like to know if audit experience is really worth it? I mean, maybe compared to the experience gained from a banking job, or an accounts executive position with MNC? Is it really better to start off in audit field? I did not enjoy my internship in the audit department. sad.gif

Erm, this is a pretty obvious "no" actually. It'll be rude if they just say "I'm sorry, you FAILED" laugh.gif

Professionals will act to their utmost curtesy to avoid misunderstandings. Who knows you might be their potential customer handling some major company account which gives you the right to choose their auditors laugh.gif

lol i can understand your frustration. It's at least better than a company i interviewed when I was a fresh grad and he told me "If you don't know mysql, you're not going to be a software engineer" and i was like F ... u .... ... . Thanks to him actually, I self learn a lot of stuffs and I'm now highly sought after for my current skillset which doesn't need mysql -> although I picked it up by myself and quite proficient in it laugh.gif

First class also got rejected? PwC requirement so high d? If you dint mind telling, which Uni are you from? Try to apply to other big4 since your grades are good. Don't give up trying or feel demotivated by that single reply wink.gif

Erm, I was told by my friends that PwC had an active recruitment last month already, so they might not be recruiting anymore at least till after cny or near-end of peak period. Not too sure how true is that though, but the active recruitment did take part last mth.

When I tried to apply in October to PwC, my application for audit was rejected because they said enough people apply liao. And this was for the Mar 2011 intake.

My average was pretty low... but I'm quite active in co-curriculur activities. So I used my experiences from those activities to answer their questions. I got an offer for tax, although I think that time they really wanted tax people so probably they don't mind my grades so much.
