I tried apply for IT audit with Ernst & Young, PwC and just recently KPMG, but there's no news...guess i'm not so good for them...lulz
EY needs ppl in their IT audit...they are really lacking in staff for tht department. You might want to try to re-apply for another intake coz EY's orientation is over yesterday.

hey, anyone know how is it like to work under the tax department of big 4?does it require you to work long hours too, like the audit department?
Added on March 3, 2012, 1:49 ami am very regretful for turning down an offer from one of the big4. i applied for a permanent position 5 months prior to my graduation. i went through all the assessment tests, essay writing, and got shortlisted for the interview. few days later i got a call from them saying that they'd want to accept me as an intern for my final semester. however, i hv already secured a place for the internship programme in a small medium accounting firm back in my hometown and have completed all the documentation procedures required by my uni. i was given ard 2 weeks to decide. eventually, i called back and accepted the offer but 1 week later, i don't knw till this day,what went through my mind, i suddenly felt stressed and uneasy thinking that there were a lot of procedures to be done(including finding a place to stay which was what bothering me the most) in short period of time if i were to accept the offer. perhaps the stress came fr the fact that it was already 2-3 weeks away fr my final exam and i didn't want to be bothered by those things. i felt as if i were not ready and called back to reject the offer. and now, i have just graduated fr my degree and looking back with regrets. im thinking of reapplying but fear of failure/rejection this time and it might make me even more regretful. what i could say is i am a really bad decision maker.
Added on March 3, 2012, 1:53 amis it ok for a fresh graduate to apply for an internship position in the big4?
For tax department, it really depends on which division u r in...personal tax, international tax, transaction tax. So it really depends on how bz tht division is
If I'm not mistaken, you want to apply to work in the Big 4 as an intern and then after that you hope that they would turn you into a permenant staff?
Usually, it's really rare for a fresh graduate to apply for internship and it's really not worth it....The amount of salary that you would get and the same workload as a permenant staff...you might want to re-think of getting an internship than a permenant one. If you fear that you might be rejected, then I guess you would never be able to move forward in your career. Sometimes, it's just the risk you have to take to gain bigger opportunity. Like they say "If you never try, then you'll never know".
