Anyone work in Cheng & Co HQ, how their working environment? actually are they consider as medium firm in Msia?
anyone know can share their experience in there? I had try few other medium firm but no reply yet...may be now is not a good timing to apply medium or big firm

U r applying for audit or tax? Are you fresh or with experience?

i'm fresh and i still consider wan to apply or not....high probability will apply audit.
just wan to know more info about this company...no much info can search from google

I don't think they are even medium sized firm.

Medium sized firm would be something like McMillan, Russell Bedfort, Baker Tilly and so forth.

If you have a degree or professional qualifications, try to go for Big 4 instead?

For me I think it would be better if you can go straight into Big 4. If you don't manage to get into big 4, try medium firms, work there for a year plus then try applying for big 4 again.

I think for tax easier to get since it's gonna start peak soon.

Audit is always easier to get la.

Tax usually very limited opening because they promote from within.

Tax punya peak is not as bad as Audit's permanent peak period

As I know seniors are in high demand now for tax

i had apply big 4 but no news...so sad...the status is still active....but i cant keep waiting for their reply...
how to determine medium or small firm?

big 4 i had apply but no news....i heard my friend said...big 4 audit recruitment normally will conduct during july or august....now is their peak....

tax may be in future....tax is too specialize, i think it is better to equip some audit knowledge only start tax....

i think tax professional will be extremely high demand in next 10 year. thank for our government

i dont think now is good timing to apply big 4...currently they r on peak....i had try but no news at all....i only received at notification email to state thank for your apply, will return to u SOON if any update

no even senior, i think accounting area also had some shortage d... a lot of company hired account to settle gst...i had receive few company email to interview account

I applied and received a callback almost 2 days later.

Arranged for an interview within 1~2 weeks.

Just be a little patient, big companies are like that.


Tax experts are always in demand la....

Nothing to do with government since M'sia got about 138 tax codes to begin with.

A little audit experience would be helpful, but not entirely necessary.

which firm u apply...but i have waiting their reply almost one month d...may b u had good academic result...i only had degree...

i think bcz of gst a lot of company start to hire account cum tax...previously they may only hire a part time account....i had saw a lot of job advertisement about this, may be need to state a gst expect, not tax expect...

Here's the catch. I don't even have a degree

GST is usually under indirect tax, while there's another division called corporate tax.

Depends on where you land actually.

Besides, if you major in accounting with a pretty decent averages, I'm sure there's a firm that's willing to hire.

Look around job street man.

then what paper u had take? acca?

normally company looking admin staff, admin mean u must know account, tax, hr .....they wan one staff can handed few staff job, malaysia culture....

may be no a good timing to apply now, bcz now is their peak...heard from my friend, normally big 4 recruitment will start after their peak mean june or july....this period also have a lot of university convo..

job street had a lot of job advertisement about account cum tax...i seen a lot....but not interested....and the salary they offer also quite high, but some time i feel jobstreet is unreality, can u believe i job hunter with few year experience only request their expected salary 2000 even lower....

Yes, I have near completion of ACCA.

And you missed the question, what's your major 1st?

And jobstreet is a platform to seek jobs. If you are not happy with the pay, don't apply for the job lol.

Sidenote : Big 4 ain't paying that much for fresh graduates as well. Esp when you are fresh from the field and have zero knowledge.

my major is accountancy....u r acca holder compare with degree holder...sure u will be a priority candidate...
i didnt expect any audit firm will pay me higher, even big 4 they had their standard rate fresh degree holder...if im not mistaken is around 2800 for degree and acca or other professional paper will higher abit....so u managed to get in to big 4?
how about the interview?

i also had apply some through jobstreet, but in the end i prefer apply directly through the company website rather than jobstreet, company will take few day to progress if u apply through jobstreet, if u direct apply through the company website will faster abit, this is what i feel during my job hunting life.

Firstly and foremost, some company directly advertise at Jobstreet in order to get more candidates to apply and filter.

I applied for my position in Big 4 from Jobstreet and I did get a callback within few days compared to directly applying to the website itself.

Degree holder is around 2,5 if I am not mistaken.

Brush up on your English, be more presentable and I'm sure you can get a job soon.

Good luck for your hunt then
