How should you answer??

What the kind of question is that?

As if you answer one way or another got magic to determine if you're hired or not?

Answer truthfully and be yourself.

You can't fake things after a while.

AND yes.... English is VERY important.

To ceejay who says low English expectations, you are wrong. Although some divisions more important than others.

Trust me when I say that straight As, super results students (dean's list, etc etc) have been rejected because of poor english test results and not being able to speak well.

There's already so many things you need to learn and improve in the firm. No one is here to teach you English/language.

Hey people, out of curiosity... Just wanna ask why does it take so long to confirm, as in like about 1-2 weeks after an interview with D?

Just went for interview with D last last Thursday, HR mistook my application and directed it to ERS instead even though I applied for audit as stated in my CV previously. When their staff (I think from ERS) called me up for an interview few weeks ago, I told her my preferred department but the girl said it could be arranged later during the interview session. I think there's some confusion around but it was settled when HR came asking me after I was done with the 3 tests to see where my interest lies in before asking the interviewer down to interview me - if it's audit or ERS? I told her the misunderstanding and of course I chose the latter. Waited for quite some time. The interviewer who is from audit is a very friendly and pleasant lady... She did not ask much questions, I had a feeling somehow she was trying to see if I could fit in to their career path and expectations. She was focusing more on my previous job experiences even though I'm just a fresh graduate. Other than that, she did not ask much though... I guess she just wanted me to speak, I think I spoke quite a lot, was being myself and most of the time she nodded and agreed with what I've said.

And how will I know if I passed the assessment? What are the chances of being hired? Going to be 2 weeks already leh, very very stressful... Not a single call from them yet. HOW? cry.gif

Sigh. Dont know what took them so long. I called them up a week after the interview but they asked me to call me back two weeks after my interview date. LOL. Anyways, it's too late i guess. Already got offered by PWC last week within 24 hours after the interview tongue.gif

Wow.. that's bad and unfortunate. But no problems, PWC should be good.

hmmm, do the big four need lawyers?

Not usually, no.

If you do decide to apply, let me give you some friendly advice.

Please put some detail in your cover letter to show that you understand what they do and that as a lawyer/person with legal background - what you want to do there.

Crazy people around with biotech degree, aero engineering, etc etc all applying in.

To me, if/when I see such CVs I just reject them.

Shows me you have no idea what the firm does!!!!

Sent you a PM.

PM me your CV.


Added on May 28, 2008, 10:25 amAll of you waiting for D to respond, do keep trying to call them every now and then.

It is most likely your hiring manager has not responded back to HR or has not completed the details.

I am very familiar with EY. Used to work there tongue.gif

Good place, but as usual, many factors to consider. Most important are the people factors. Your peers, your seniors, your boss/partner/director does make a difference.

Apply!

Just look them up - or contact KL office and ask who you can send your resume to (or if they can forward it on for you)
