Considering you don't know what a Partner is in an audit firm, I'm not surprised you screwed up a Big4 interview. To be very straight forward I believe you already screwed it up by not understanding the organisation structure of the interviewing company.

All of the Big4s are Partnerships, where by the biggest bosses are Partners and net profits are shared among all Partners. The Partners are then split to head different departments. So for example you'll have a few Partners for Audit, a few Partners for Tax, a few Partners for Advisory and etc.

The work scope for auditors at the non-KL offices would be the same as the KL office auditors. You'll basically be doing the financial audit for any of their clients. The only difference would be the size of the clients. The KL office would have more Public Listed Companies and higher profile companies while the non-KL offices may be doing audit for smaller companies that are only based in that state alone. For example Kuching auditors may audit Kuching specific clients such as Sebor. All offices would have their own set of Partners too of course.

judging from your academic, you will go far HOWEVER, not every top-ACCA student likes audit, one of my ex-colleague, Lai Kar Jun, was also from your uni, top ACCA student and EY Global winner, he quits after a year, now with accenture, quitting in Singapore is harder cause we are sort of like immigrants.. we rely on the Employment Pass.. damn mah fan, so before you wanna step into audit, i suggest you to work in Msia Big 4 first, so once you know you like this field then come over and join me n CTWAi!

ctwai... I busy these days all.. at client's place all the time... Singapura Finance

is anybody in big 4 hong kong? i'm considering there..  =P

better than singapore ma?

Yeah, i wanna know too.

In Deloitte have to wait how long to get the result whether i'm get hired or not?
let's say if today interview. Immediately?

Roughly 2 weeks... I think

Anyway, an update...

I'm scheduled to have my first interview with EY next week tuesday, and BDO Binder offered me 2.7k if I would start with them. To think my PWC interview is all the way in July.

Crap. Argh~

(i haven't even passed my last papers or get my obu degree yet...  the timing couldn't be greater. *sarcasm*)

No worries, I was offered when i was in my first term of my final year (1 year ahead). Until the day I resigned, EY msia doesnt even have my degree!! cause i forgot to submit to them when i join.
