It's all depends on you. I am a CPA too. Before I came back to KL, I had job interviews with KPMG, EY and Deloitte in Australia. All 3 of them required me to enrol for the CA Program under ICAA. Then I told them I am already a CPA, then they said it's mandatory that anyone who joins the Big 4 in Australia must have CA. They consider CPA is just another general paper that anybody can have it. Because of that I rejected their offer and came back to KL. Now I regretted it.

Now I work in a mid size firm & discover that CPA is very far behind ICAEW & ACCA in terms of technical knowledge, skills blah blah blah.... whatever under the sun....Sometimes I am very puzzle why are they, ICAEW & ACCA are so good and all the CPA are lost & struggle in the work. It's the exam that makes the big difference.
