Helooooo. I will be going to BDO Singapore to interview next week, under external audit, which will require to bond 18mths employment. Hence, i am keen to know: 1) What is the computer policy/bond u meant in BDO SG? 2) How much is the asking/ expected salary should i request? I am an ACCA graduate with 3 years working experience but not from Big4, which 1 year and 4 months in small local audit firm & 1 year and 8 months in a PLC as accounts executive, both in KL. i am 24 yrs old now. 3) How is the working life there? Everyday works till mid night ma? 4) since i can apply ACCA membership now, does BDO singapore pay for me?
Your kind reply & advice to me i am much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

QUOTE(jae @ Apr 26 2012, 11:04 PM) 1) Means if you leave before your bond expires, you pay them back 2) Most likely they will offer 1st year associate, at most as an experienced A1. Pay last I heard around $2.2-2.3k (entry level) 3) Depends on your luck 4) No idea. 2.2-2.3 is quite low. May I know when was the last time u heard this? Coz Big4 since last year has revised all staff salary range, fresh grad entry is 2800. Doesnt if this apply to Big5 like BDO? This post has been edited by Alvis1988sun: Apr 29 2012, 04:10 PM

QUOTE(jae @ Apr 29 2012, 08:03 PM) There's no 5, it is still 4. And they are not the fifth either in spore. So no, the pay revision doesn't apply to BDO. Let's just say the info I have is fairly recent, if you think it is too low, then you can just try requesting for 2.8 and see if they will give you that. No harm trying. Thanks for ur advice, pray & wish me good luck for the tomolo interview. Btw may i know where are u working now? Big4? Added on May 1, 2012, 6:02 pmQUOTE(seantang @ Apr 29 2012, 06:28 PM) Big 5? Still 4 lah. You're right about the 2.8 though. The Deloittes auditors auditing my company this year told me the same thing. Not sure about BDO though. They don't get the same kind of big fee clients that the Big4 do. BDO claims themselves in the website they are the 5th largest. Thanks for ur reply. I know wat to do for the interview 2moro at BDO... This post has been edited by Alvis1988sun: May 1 2012, 06:02 PM
