Anyone know what firm in medium tern is hiring ppl for audit now?seem no reply from several firm I applied although I have 1 yr working experience.

What is your qualifications other than experience?

FYI, mid firm prefers full degree or P Level ACCA. You can try if you are F level and diploma.. but it will be KIV tray.. until they really desperate only will call you.

Why you want to choose mid tier compare to the Big 4 (or 5 as BDO claimed itself)/ small firm

I get my full degree and ACCA just leave 3 paper outstanding. I won't try big 4 coz my friend work there everyday work til midnight....I prefer to join medium firm if can....but seem now is not recruitment season for audit firm.haiz

LOL... Mid firm also work till midnight... but maybe not so stress on Audit dateline. Cos big4 more Bursa company... Bursa is 4months after closing. Non Bursa is 7 months

Dont be surprise!

Honestly speaking. No pain No gain. If you want a normal comfortable 9-5 working hours.. DONT CHOOSE AUDIT in Big 4 or Mid tier ..

I know the situation in both big4 and medium term,i know that big4 will be learn the most compare to other audit firm....but for me maybe I need some life also except working, coz i also tried medium firm also and i know the feeling.

Terrible audit life!!!

Even in commerical.. those accountant every month closing alos need to work late.. just that their peak period is 3-5 days every month only.. also no life for a few days...and also the audit period.. haha.. those auditors will dump load of questions to them to answer

So its all up to the more $$ = more work.

Of cos unless you are running a business you can play will the $$ still coming in

Hello, I will be going for internship and I have went for interview with Crowe Horwath and UHY. Have yet to get their reply but just wanna ask which firm would be the better option for me? As I am relying on public transport during my internship, UHY would be nearer for me compared to Crowe. However, I understand that Crowe has better reputation. FYI, the wages paid by UHY is slightly lower than Crowe. Just wondering too, if I were to intern at UHY, will it be possible (in other words will it be hard) for me to enter Crowe after my graduation? Thanks!

if you want to work with crowe.. then intern there la.. dont for the sake of convenience and bet on your future...

if there are no vacancies for entry lvl audit assistance position in their website, should we try email them also?

i applied BDO, Baker Tilly, GT and mazar already but havent receive any reply yet.

T.T

thinking of applying crowe also but their recruitment page dont have a position that suits me.

Hi everyone,

Can you share with me whether there is any technical questions will be asked in the interview by the mid-tier audit firm?

If there is, could you share some of the example in here?

Thank you.


Hi Kenchi Lee,

I am also looking for audit assistant position. Do you know which months are their recruitment? I have the same issue with BDO. Are you apply through online?

no idea man. i m looking for an audit assistant position too.

BDO i applied through their website, it was a simple form and i attached my resume inside. i applied last week, until now no news yet.

Hi, did anyone heard about Kreston John & Gan?? how is the working environment there? i just get call for interview..
haven't receive any news from others firm i applied..

I understand that. But, after my internship I have to go back and complete my last year of degree before my graduation. And Crowe said that in that case we will still have to undergo another interview, whereas those who straight away work with them after internship no need to interview. So I am thinking, maybe I could intern at other smaller firm as well since both also need to undergo interview in the future. And from what my senior told me, smaller firm will give higher appraisal compared to big firms. So I have been weighing the issue.

normally for fresh grad entry level position, they won't ask technical question

Definitely better to go CH if u plan to go back there again after grad.

Reason? Don't bother about the higher appraisal from small firm, what is important is, since u intern at CH, u know the style and audit methodology of CH, u know how they work, so they don't need to teach you again, that's definitely a bigger plus than higher appraisal from small firm.

yes u should, Audit Firm always need people cuz always got people leaving, just the matter of how many people needed only.

So no harm to try your luck even though no vacancy officially posted on their website.

Hi all,

I have question to ask about the job of auditor.

During my internship period, i have assisted my senior in preparing a report about the annual meeting, particulars about the BOD (address, remuneration, shares held), number of shares allow to issue, etc.

It is a report relatively simply to prepare as I just need to obtain the minutes and relevant documents from the secretarial firm or their company secretary and type the info into the softcopy or tick if they have comply.

This is what I still remember. Can anyone tell me what is this report call?

Thank you.

Anyone working at bdo kl before? May I know its working environment in audit department? Thank you

hmmm... a report? How many pages is there?

From what u described, what comes to my mind is, Director Confirmation, or probably Company Secretary confirmation. But these are confirmations, not report tho.

Would love to know more too, anyone care to share? Or none of the BDO audit staff visit LYN?
