I'm currently in Advisory. There are no real defined peaks. Really depends on job deadline, as well as if the firm suddenly has an influx of jobs. Also really depends, coz some ppl start really hectic with alot of work. You kind of build 'rep' in Advisory, so the more hardworking/fast learners get picked for jobs quicker.

One time the partner was walking around during a slow period and asked if ppl were utilizing their Annual Leave. XD

You're in advisory, ya? Talk to the person in charge of HR staffing for the dept. She's helping us all a big favour by buying tickets in wholesale amounts and then breaking them down to sell to the staff. So you can buy straight from her for 7 tickets. Price the same at RM9.

We also work at clients, so..... might not be a good idea to buy the monthly parking. ;;;

Tax advisory?

Oh, don't worry. You'll be in office almost full time. =D

I'm in Performance Improvement. ;;

Wah. Need to be careful what I write here, later kena from HR.... O_o

Actually a little surprised. I was under the impression that the firms are in dire need of audit associates now. Usually first class is a golden ticket into PwC (A friend who got first class got in without the whole interview process. O_o;;;)

I'd suspect that how you present your CV and cover letter plays a major part; usage of grammar and how you express yourself counts for the position.

andrienne, I won't be your senior per say, coz tax advisory and performance advisory are under different structure/partners. Different floors as well.

Wah. If that's the case, dunno why adi man... Maybe somebody in HR has a grudge against you or something.. O_o

So true.

Haih. Manager just conveniently told me that they are going to burn 2 weeks of my AL.

My previous manager verbally agreed beforehand to let me use 1 week, and at the middle of the project said that he couldn't let me go due to the extended deadline. And my next project begins immediately after the first one ends, which is also another tight deadline project that will end in January.

There goes two weeks of AL, and one week of TOIL which I got while working over Hari Raya + Merdeka hols.

Lesson learnt. Your managers can be like two headed snakes........
