You can always negotiate and discuss with the engagement manager or partner. Whether they will accommodate is another story. You can discuss on whether the staff on penang branch can do the non-core jobs.

Hi!

Job offers - top 6 audit firm - corporate advisory vs big 4 audit firm - auditor. Which one is better option?

BIG 4 Audit of course!

Corporate Advisory in BIG 4 or other audit firm is a joke honestly. If you want serious corporate advisory, Investment Banks are the real deal.

Also the fact is, it is easier to transfer from audit to advisory than advisory to audit in the future if you have different plans.

Hey guys. I am partially qualified in ACCA. I was wondering should I apply for small/medium firms first or straight go into Big 4? How big are the chances to get into Big 4 around near Dec/Jan? How long is the processing time?

Now is peak period right?

Do you think now is a good time for me to apply for entry level audit associate position in big 4's? I have a degree in accounting & finance from a local uni

How much does big 4 pays for fresh graduate audit and advisory?

The total package including basic + allowance.

Million tks!

Always try no harm trying

There should be a comment about salary up there
But generally for fresh grad is like low 3k++
Difference by few hundreds for different company

so generally not much significance

Hi Guys,

May i know anyone of you know the working culture in KPMG Singapore? Please share some experience with me. Thank you!

High chance you can get to big 4 with peak season coming with partial qualification but you will get significantly lower pay but you'll be doing the same workload as your degree/full acca colleague.

Hi,

Anyone can share what’s the salary for kp advisory associate? I’m considered as experienced hire ( associate w one year exp). How many stages of interview after the phone interview? What I need to prepare for interview?

Many Thanks!

Hi guys, so I'm pursuing a degree related to construction, final year, local uni, CGPA 2.65 but with outstanding co-curricular experiences.

What are my chances of being accepted to the Big 4 as an advisory intern?

Anyone can update the latest salary for audit entry level in Big 4?

I got offered 3k during September for PwC audit associate

Hi guys, need some advice here. I have been working in a small audit firm in PJ for 3 months after I resigned from PwC regional office after joining for 5 months. I was bonded with my current firm for 3 years while pursuing my icaew studies. I just received an interview invitation from EY KL. If I were to get the offer, should I go for it or stay with my current firm until I get my qualification?

What's holding you back from resigning?

I just went to EY interview on 21st December. The interview was not as hard as I thought, like mostly general questions you can find on google. But I did ask him a lot, during my turn to ask the interviewer. He mostly debunked the myths that auditors will go home at 2-3am. It actually depends on which industry you're assigned to (especially if you're in financial services) and the proficiency of the auditor in performing his work.

Honestly I had the least expectation to be shortlisted for the face-to-face interview. I thought they gonna prioritize abroad students and those who used to intern there, rather than UiTM students like me lol. My co-curricular activities are not that outstanding, only actively involved with my faculty's events. I don't know, may be my CGPA helps, since the interviewer keeps asking about my CGPA and looking at my academic transcripts, dean's list certificates.

Most Big 4s have no vacancies for the time being. The next intake for all Big 4s on July 2019. But you can still apply early.

From what I know, the minimum CGPA is around 3.30. but you can try since you have incredible co-curricular involvements.
