Any idea how's the interview like for IT Advisory department?

same as the others. numeric & verbal test + essay & lastly interview with dept manager & partner (usually its just the manager).

aih i really dunno lah...

i see myself in the mirror i see a desperado...

the waiting is really painful,and it's probably i think i might get it and on the other hand the thought that  i'll fall harder if i aim higher is equally suffering sleep.gif" everyday i'm kept thinking bout the worst case scenario so that i get myself mentally prepared....

is 2 weeks possible ar? but the rejection snail mail should reach within a week's time

thanks for allowing me to rant

they actually give a rejection letter? which one of the big 4 did u apply for? as for myself, its been a couple of days since i went for the kpmg interview, was quite good actually.. but then u never know.. fingers crossed.

I went for KPMG's too last Friday for IT Advisory position. What position did you interview for, if I may ask?

Heard loads of discouraging stories about joining the Big 4, i.e. crazy workloads, but I'm still hoping to receive an offer.

yep same here, IT advisory too. was it the lady manager who interviewed u too? haha workload n stuff, nothing new there. wondering if they'll let us know if we're rejected or not, cos i'm also waiting for an offer from others too. cheers.

No, I got another manager. When was your interview? Apparently we should hear from them within a week or two, if selected.

Anyway, I didn't manage to finish both sets of the assessment. Haha... oh well....

mine was last thursday. yep a week or two is what i was told too.. fingers crossed then.

okay one week after the interview the HR called me up to ask me send her a scanned copy of my degree. The next day she called to ask me send her my scanned copy of ACCA transcripts. She hasn't called me back the next day(which is today) so i'm really down T_T

i still have one paper pending,7 mths working experience at a medium firm.
i think they might be already considering me but then they might not be satisfied with my ACCA results and they might be thinking that i should have gotten a promotion by now (appraisal coming soon....)
Ace i dunno how to cope with the wait...T_T they should have just sent me a rejection snail mail instead...
*
which one of the big 4 are u referring to ?, if u don't mind me asking
