my result has released and with blessing of God, I am able to score a First Class. Just wondering, will that make my starting pay higher compare to other graduates that only manage to get a Second Class Upper?

Well u already know the answer, but no doubt chances of first class > 2nd upper to get into firms la.
If you complete ACCA, got pay raise icon_rolleyes.gif but a little bit only la sweat.gif

No answer = still got chance. You should wait for another week, if there are still no answer, you should call the HR up. Btw, there are Monash grads in my dept so I dun think that is an issue. You performance during the assessment and interview (the most crucial part) will determine whether you will be offered the job.

Well, I never did internship at KPMG so I am not sure whether they will ask technical questions. That aside, you should be prepared to answer questions like "Tell me about yourself", "What do you intend to achieve during your Y months of internship here?", "Tell me what do you understand about audit"....general questions like that. How you conduct yourself during the interview is of utmost importance. Do ask some questions abt the firm if you have the chance, that shows you are interested. Good luck thumbup.gif

Emm not exactly low cos clients around the vicinity are lesser compared to HQ in PJ/KL. Most companies in Penang are IT based like Intel. So after client year end finishes, most of them will be seconded to KL once if not twice per year. They just dont need so much people all the year.
