WTA, what are the possible ways to submit CVs for employment?

I mean is it necessary to be in hard copy or is it possible to send my soft copy to them instead?
I know that PWC is accepting soft copy via their webpage, how about others?

base on your opinion, do u think there's difference between CV handed in personally(digital copy or hardcopy) str8 to the firms compared with CV handed in to the college management to be compiled and handed over in a stack instead?

Just curious, which field is better for a fresh grad / partial grad?

Associate in Performance Improvement in the Advisory Dept or Audit Assistant in Audit Services in the Assurance Dept?

Erm...Actually did big 4 take in ACCA finalist? Which one stands higher chance for a ACCA finalist? I am going to try my best on big 4s, hopefully is penang ones, but I have no clue that will they take in ACCA finalist?

they do take in but they'll obviously prefer those who've completed it rather than final sem students.. then again there's no harm to try applying for it right..

since I've receive some conflicting infos, I just wanna clarify, is it really that EY and PwC assign specific audit field to each audit team? and is it really true that KPMG or Deloitte offer wide range of industry for their audit team to experience?

cuz there are employee from these company who says the otherwise.

and if I'm employed in a firm that practice specific audit field, is it possible to request to switch to another industry if I find that I prefer another industry more?

how about if I'm in a broad audit field firm, is it possible to request that I'm assign to specific field if I manage to find out a specifc industry that I fancy?

companies dont inform those are not shortlisted normally. among big 4, i know only KPMG is practicing it but it's by email and it usually takes a long time.
*
so if I receive a call from them, it is usually to inform me that I'm shortlisted and not otherwise?

Cuz I did received a call, but I didn't hear clearly that I'm shortlisted or I'm NOT shortlisted. I could only catch the word "shortlisted".
However they never mention anything about what's next, eg interview, assessment etc.

I submitted my resume to all the big 4 during the previous ACCA career fair in September, and also send in again through my college few weeks ago.

Should I continue sending it again tru their website/email?

Is it necessary to call them regularly to check on my application?

I'm looking forward to be recruited in January tho..
