Hi guys, just trying my luck here.
Anyone working in Big 4's business process improvement unit, can you PM me regarding the scope of work & timeframe for such a project where the total fee ranges between RM500k - RM1million.
Reason I'm asking is because that's my employer's budget. We are exploring 3rd party options, and wanna know what is the usual industry-standard scope of work within this range.
Obviously not requiring anything sensitive, just a general overview of the scope will do. Thanks.

Hi, I would like to ask roughly how long does it take from submitting an online application to receiving a phone interview from the PwC recruiters for the associate position? Dropped my online application a week ago and wondering should I give them a call to inquire about my application status. Thanks!

It take about one month for PWC to get back to you for the next step after online application. I applied for Risk assurance associate in the first week of Oct and they sent an email asking me to do online assessment in the second week of Nov.

Ohh, seems like the first stage of interview after submitting the online application is no longer a phone interview. Would you mind to share more about the online assessment that you had been through? Thanks for your input!

Hello everyone. I just received an email yesterday from KPMG.
"We are unable to offer you an employment opportunity with us at the moment. We are still interested in your application and will contact you should future opportunity arises."
What do you think? Did they reject me? I've completed the online assessment. I'm wondering whether I failed their online assessment or maybe it's because of the CMCO in Selangor as I live in other state.

But it's not a phone interview, it's an online assessment. I think you can follow up after two weeks.

And from that email, I dont think anyone would able to pinpoint why they rejected you.

Anyone went interview with EY recently? I have an interview tomorrow and super nervous as it is my first interview. I can't speak fluently when I am nervous. Is there any presentation to be done in the interview?

Hi, you're not alone. I am facing same issue right now here. Been 2 weeks since the interview. The HR-in-charge replied me once by saying "we will get you the outcome by this week", but until today I still haven't receive any email from them again. Maybe really need to be patient about it.

In relation to big 4 reaction, if they want you they will contact you further. If they reject/ don't want you now, they will either keep quiet or put something like of future opportunities come along. Big4 rarely reject openly unlike certain industries.

QUOTE(chinchinsone @ Nov 15 2020, 03:29 PM) Currently an ACCA straight passer, but do they value SPM more than ACCA result? Couldn't find a job 😩 You are not alone... I recently graduated from ACCA too (oct 2020 - straight passer). And I got a first-class honours Accounting Degree. Still couldn't find a job...I guess is because my interview performance really not good... Good academic results is not that important if a person do not have good interview skills (I am the one) Hope I could improve faster for the next interview

QUOTE(lkslks @ Nov 11 2019, 01:17 PM) I am an ACCA fresh grad looking for a career in audit. I applied to big 4 and some mid-tier firms since september. Didn't get any reply except for kpmg (failed the online assessment) and deloitte (only accepting new intake in next year august). Currently I'm searching jobs in jobstreet. However, looking at the amount of applicants, I don't think I will be selected since I don't have experience at all. Any advice for me? How long should I wait? If still no response, I might just apply to small firms but I not sure which firm to apply. Or I might apply accounting/finance jobs in mnc. As time goes by, I lack in confidence for not getting a job. Most of my friends entered big 4 right after they graduated. I think my weakness is I'm not a straight passer and I'm not very outgoing. I feel so stressed out. Pls help I am currently facing the TOTALLY same situation with you 1 year ago. Do you mind sharing with me what happened to your job finding journey after this? Really appreciate if you could give me some advices. TQ!!

Dude, how long ago did you apply for the PwC Jr Xplorer? I applied since October and all I ever got was an email saying that they will contact me sometime in November. Its almost December and I havent heard anything from them. Also, mind sharing what they asked during the Interview? Was it phone-screening or via Webcam?
