Hi, I just completed my ACCA last semester Feb 2015. I am 23 yrs old and I have 1 year experience working as audit associate in a small firm. I submitted my application around March to the big 4. So far I only got 1 response from KPMG but I still haven secure my interview. Does that means that I cant join big 4. I am applying for small firms now since I have been waiting for 2 months for nothing.

So I presume KPMG gave u some e-tests to do before inviting u to an interview?

Everyone can join Big 4, especially ACCA holders. FYI, I am an engineering grad, but ended up working for KPMG.

Yes, they gave me the test but my interview which was scheduled on March was delayed to May/early June. So I assume that is just an 'excuse' not to hire me. I have not receive any email from them since then. It's almost end of May so I have already lost hope since there are no news from the other 3 firms too.

I am having the same dilemma as you, i applied for a position as an audit associate at big 4 (KL) but until now i still haven't got any news from them. My instinct tells me that part of the reasons is because i did not involve myself much in co-curricular activities and no related working experience as i didn't participate in internship during my summer holiday.

At the moment, i am thinking whether i should apply big 4 in Ipoh or work in mid tier/ small firm in KL? sad.gif

sigh... any advices?

Oh wow. I have zero co-curricular activities as well. I guess that is why I am not picked. sad.gif I am already started looking for small/medium firm now.
