Thank you so much for all the useful information from pherac & Hawkrein. It means a lot to me!

Apart from that, may i know what kind of tests will be given to job applicants during the hiring process?

What should we prepare for the interview and tests? Do we need to apply our accounting / auditing knowledge in the test ? As i have graduated a few months ago, and i have forgotten most of the stuffs so if these knowledge is needed, i have to start revising. :S

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.
