QUOTE(ceejay @ Apr 10 2008, 08:37 AM) V, Hehe... My dad just changed the only auto car to manual car... All the cars in the hse are manual now... I can drive but not in the bz road... Not really use driving manual after 4 yrs driving auto.. I believe its not hard to drive a car but its abt estimation how to park car especially at the uptown area.. I believe I've been that area be4 (I guess I forgot d).first time i hear ppl donwan to go interview becos of transport problems--go and find out what they offer first. U are just starting out- u should be brave and find out more. U already hv exp in big4- but u went there at the busiest period- if u can survive that u can do well. Bet with you -compare yourself with your frens in other job after three years- if still regret- I am sure if u want to do accounting/financial, this is the best choice. U do not sound like a rich gurl (no car or driver) but professional qualf can still take u very high up and on your own merit 2. Okay- okay i think too much cafferine for me this morning but still u are very lucky to have good education oredi. Schedule interview to a convenient date so u can concentrate on exams. This is past busy season n i think D can wait for a week. Relax- if uare really good, they will try to sell u how good D is- ask them all the question like work environment, how much ot, etc etc all the things u saw/experience as VT- Question?- why your VT firm no offer you jobleh? Tomolo I have Tax exam.. next week, audit... Arghh.... Study isnt a prob... understanding how all the each chaps stories goes takes time... Hehe.. I guess I've been procrastinating too much...  I applied PWC 1st.. They just take damn long to reply me... then I applied D... they called me the next day... My previous firm that I'm working with... Haven apply yet... haha...  Dont ask me why... I dunno... mayb I dowan go back there!!?? CluelessAnd best part, I'm not local... that's y I need to get a nearer hse to the office to save transport cost... Asking my dad to buy me a car isn my style... I rather be independent. Yeah.... Girls Power!! kekekeke  Added on April 10, 2008, 10:12 am QUOTE(drk messenger @ Apr 10 2008, 09:00 AM) haha.. seems like u r rich gal.. i onli rent a room but not whole unit of house.. I plan to rent whole hse as well... so I can shout and sit everywhere I wan... sides, can invite frens come stay as well... anyway.. good luck.. hope u'll receive call soon..

QUOTE(sweetcat @ Apr 10 2008, 11:09 AM) Added on April 10, 2008, 11:12 amand veena, renting whole unit at area near uptown is kinda hard and is quite expensive, the cheapest one around i think is puncak damansara condo, that also around at least RM800.... unless u option for those flat next to pelangi utama, that flat also need 650/month.. very expensive... ;( |

QUOTE(abcdefcuk @ Apr 11 2008, 01:51 AM) not to hurt veena feeling but u said u applied for PwC's right? did anyone of them call you to inform you of their next assessment? as far as i m concerned, pwc's next audit assessment is on tuesday morning. they have already made the announcement to all SHORTLISTED candidates 2 weeks prior. the next assessment is in may. so if you're still keen with PwC, send it again after tuesday Thanks for your info... Actually I already got a called from them earlier and they offering me VT position [I didn mention here be4] After a while conversation, they found out they mistakenly place my resume on for the person incharge for VT and then she promise to passed my resume to the person in charged for the permanent position. I understand that the assessment is on next tuesday morning... I stand no chance for that it d since... u know... pushing my resume here n there really takes time and it might lost somewhere else d good luck.i was a student from sunway as well. In addition, I did ask about VT position for this coming batch and Nov-Dec-Jan Batch... and they are still available... Guess wad, Dec batch has already filled half... Those who are interested for that batch, you gotta be hurry and apply now.. I wonder why PWC is such a HOT item among Big4...  P/S: I went for a tour there last few weeks... Its damn nice... nice design, big... enuf workstation for everyone... new lappie, upgraded security... and wad I hate the most is the lift... Let say, I accidently forgot to bring my tag or left it on the workstation... YOU CANT USE THE LIFT... ITS DAMN HIGH TECH... hahahahaaaa... |

QUOTE(siaolang @ Apr 15 2008, 06:08 AM) I plan to apply for some of big fours for full time position. U should have join wit me... haha... I'm also majoring in finance wad... but just double major acc & fin.. those 3 sections.. advisory/tax/audit... all 3 also can join... i had a fren who is studying engineering did intern as VT in audit dept.. wad u think???Just to ask, if I have no internship experience and an average 3.5 gpa, do I stand a chance for getting shortlisted for interview? Also, I'm majoring in Finance, which I I should go into? advisory/tax/audit? Thanks It just depends on... wad kinda environment u like... such as, advisory = pretty hard to apply cause its not a demand job..hard to find empty slots to hire new employee in... the working hours is just nice... can go back sharp 5.30 or 6... or depends Tax... also the same... quiet flexible... maybe sometimes, u have to stay back late for some deadlines.. normally can go back ard 7 something d.. Audit, stay back lar until 8-9 everyday during mid-peak hrs.. if peak hours, prepare to stay back late.. mayb have to stay overnite @ office as well... Mac - Nov ===> not peak season... ** this is the feedback I got from a 3 diff seniors from PWC ** So, for your enquiries which one should you go IS YOUR CHOICE... we cant really decide for you.. do more research and try find some seniors and ask them how's their working life... that's was I did now... Just that, I dun have any senior frens work in D.. anything abt D I'm quiet blur.... wad I heard is negative stuff abt D... I dun care.. |

QUOTE(abcdefcuk @ Apr 16 2008, 12:21 AM) what is "im least to tax" ? but u're right on audit. as audit is a very challenging field which requires commitment also, not many ppl can take it. most leave after a couple of months. so the turnover quite high. as a result, always looking for staff wan Yeah, most ppl cant tahan audit... actually I aso cant tahan my internship for 2 mths ther but the best thing abt audit is... U really get to know alot of new place to eat more like jalan jalan cari makan.... haha.... My intern last yr was like.. my team is auditing the Co which main holdings in KL, subs in Klang and Glenmarie... 2 weeks in KL, a week in Klang, a week in Glenmarie... depends how fast my team done all the sightings and their sections lar..... I did stock taking, sightings, all ez sections la... haihyoh sister, u got internship experience before, last time u go interview nv prepare all this wan meh ? nvm nvm. tomorrow go uptown early. there shud have those kedai or 24hrs kiosk which normally got photostating machine GOOD LUCK VEENA.! what time ur interview?? They all never mention abt I should prepare this and that for interview... I thought just bring my photocopy IC, Ori Certs and my photo... that's was mention by the HR... * I understand, its my mistake not doing my proper research on this... giving lotsa of excuse doesn mean anything...  I never been to interview be4... my previous intern was a very special case where my resume and certs are send online.. HR ppl called me, then ask when I'm free to start work... then next day go work lor... where got interview like meetings partners or managers... Bro, my interview @8.30am... *faint faint*  DIE!!
