Hi!!~~i'm wishing to work in big 4.Does anyone know:
1)How can i apply through?
2)What is the requirement(I'm ACCA student)?
3)How was the working environment?
4)How was the salary?

Thanks!!

dun apply kpmg tax - dam stressful

i browsed through kpmg website but i dun c they hv vacancies for audit assistant. are they not hiring?

well....kpmg do need audit assistant 2 as there are currently short of aa2 position.

lil bit question here,out of the big4..
Is Mazars (5th largest acctg firm in Europe. based in France) in Malaysia is still the same environment as Moores rowland?(in terms of working culture, Equipment, Methodologies)or mazars has taken over and introduce their own approach of running the firm.. if the environment, management operations is still as moores rowland..then nothing change except the name only..

I recommend Deloitte if it comes to Taxation Services

aa2? is it a graduate position? i tried to apply online but i didnt manage to see any vacancies in kmpg kl

1. You can apply online, or email the HR Manager
2. ACCA or Degree (relevant discipline)
3. As normal as an accounting should be. You have peak seasons, and off-peak seasons. If you're expecting a 9am - 5pm job, not suitable then
4. Approx. RM2.3k - RM2.6k +- (depends on which firm etc)

I've just graduated and obtained Bachelor of Business Degree majoring in Accounting& Finance
Well i'm intrested in audit field and there is few question that i need to ask those ppl that is working if big 4 now.
What are my chances of me getting the job in big 4?I'm quite worried
My marks are not that impressive just credits and pass all over the place

Oic...
1) If i wanna to be a chartered accountant.which field i have to learn first?(how long i need to involve in?)(is it very tough??)

Thanks!!!

slim.. unless u are good in sports, amazing personality and demonstrate some of the key points which they are looking for.. well overall, poor academics results is going to make ur interview extermely difficult.. getting shortlisted for an interview might be a problem already.

Mazars = MR.

They've merged i think between Praxity MR and Mazars.

If that's you in the profile pic.. u've stand a better chance..hehe! jk
Jokes aside..

It all depends on how you carry yourself during the interview. Let me tell you that you can have excellent results from Uni and fare pretty badly in the working environment. You need to be adaptable and have the willingness to learn. I've seen a few of my junior colleagues working under me with far better results, but they can't seem to excel well when it comes to grasping the firm's methodology and soft-skills.

In short, a decent result will give you the opportunity to get an interview..while the other part is totally up to you.

P/s: I got in into the Big4 with mostly credits (and some passes). Just try to apply, you'll never know

Wah the answer i get so discouraging
Anyways i going to try apply though
Hopefully can get in lar

is it possible for a Science degree holder apply big 4?
with 2nd class upper result...

Didn't mean to discourage you.. actually I thought my answer was pretty encouraging.
If you need help with questions asked and how to go about the interview.. just PM me. I'll be happy to help.

You've got to know that the Big4 doesn't just do Audit (Assurance).
They have many departments and usually people I know with Non-Accounting
background apply for jobs in the Advisory / Consulting department. But if you
enjoy Auditing, just apply.. these firms have in-firm training for Non-Accounting graduates.

Just passed my resume to my friend in deloitte he will help me to pass to their HR

i called up PWC just now, they mentioned the intakes for March 09 had just passed (yesterday).. the next session will be for June'09 intake.

oh well, too heard from seniors that PWC prefers experience candidate now rather than fresh grads - anyone care to share some POV ?
