ItuDiaMan.. we meet again.. haha.. well from my conversation with my seniors.. it depends on ur client lar.. if they are cash rich... what also can claim.. if not.. too bad lar.. thats why EY and PWC advantage.. they have big big PLCs.. but that doesnt mean KPMG dun have.. haha.. but in general.. its hard to justify OT for audit.. coz at the end of the day.. u still gotta finish what ure assigned.. takan they wanna reward u if ure slow.. if lidet all big 4 pokai if everyone takes their own time.. after awhile. its doesnt matter got OT onot.. the question is can u do finish ur work onot..

waoh.. Itu_Dia_Man seems pro giler.. haha.. always see u active in big 4 post.. u shud become big 4 advisor.. hahaha.. btw.. how did ur second day go? hows the test?

erm as far as im concern.. there is smtg like an accuracy test.. means u kenot simply tembak wan.. but i duno how does it work tho.. u gotta check with the HR person.. erm.. those question u either know or duno.. dun waste ur time to think long long.. coz the time is very tight.. and alot of choices.. i think got A B C D E F G H.. so basically if u waste time in one question and still get wrong.. den u wont be able to finish it.. but dun worry.. even though its tough.. but the standard quite low.. as in even if u get many wrongs.. u wont fail so easily.. like for me i remember i thought i did badly.. but i got an A and B for the respective test... so dun worry.. just stay cool..

btw.. most of the question are based on statistic.. like for example.. in a school there are 1000 students... 60 percent is guy 40 percent is girl.. out of all the guy in the school .. 50% like maths.. and out of all the girls.. 10 % like maths.. so how many students likes maths.. smtg lidet.. and do brush up on currency conversion.. for the english test.. read the passage properly and dun only concentrate on the question.. it happened to me last time.. i keep analyzing the question but didnt know the passage change already.. hehe.. btw.. i think there are alot of questions that I answer "not enough information".. which is the last choice for the english test..

hope this info helps..

jeremycool > im not sure.. u better check with them.. coz not sure how do they grade the candidates.. based on accuracy or number of corrects.. but im pretty sure there is such thing as accuracy (i think number of corrects over number attempted..not sure) since the director told me before..

according to the HR manager.. there's no point to practice.. coz its either u know or u duno.. haha..

btw.. did they told u who will be interviewing you?

jeremycool >> congrats.. hope it would be a good news.. so who interviewed u?

haha.. i think kpmg has the best parking.. cheap and convenient as well.. while walking back can go shopping.. haha

if ure reluctant to walk.. can always sit the free shuttle bus in the morning.. yea i agree with ChaSm.. u wont be in office most of the time.. when i was an intern there.. the office is like 10% of the people is there only..

haha.. can say so.. but then at night it would be crowded until no place to sit.. heard that some actually sit on the floor.. hehe..

hmm... i wouldnt say its impossible.. but its not easy.. unless ure in the higher position like manager.. den maybe they'll send u oversea.. but still u will be bonded.. thats what i heard..

piggylov3r > your an intern from audit P? which batch.. im an intern there as well december 2008 batch.. i got hired as a full time staff over there when i graduated. talking bout how bad it is over there.. hmm.. only me and ItuDiaMan knows.. haha..
