If you're aiming to go to SG big 4.. Start applying early. That will give you time to apply 2-3 rounds before your planned move date and will give you time to look for other opportunities. Would be good if you have contacts within that can refer you in as well..

It's never easy for tax professionals to move to the big 4 unless you have good achievements in your resume imho

Thanks for the heads up. Im in msia for another one year at least. Will bear that in mind when i apply. Currently looking to be involved in tp or advisory work for better cv before making the move

It's a trade-off. There's a high chance that the SG big4 will offer you a rank that's 1-2 lower hence it's better to move early before you start earning too much and feel the pain when your pay drops down again. But on the other hand a better resume, better work experience will lead to higher chances at getting a job in SG. That's why I recommend applying as early as possible.

Sadly it's a bad year for job-hunting though (what with the slow economy and all) but it's a good time to brush up on your resume and practice your interview skills in preparation for when the economy picks up.

True enough.. One of my friend am, get demoted to senior 1..i just promoted to senior so I guess they will demote me. Regret that I never go there earlier

TIRED!

Hey guys, I received an offer to work at both PwC and EY Kl branch. Can anyone help me decide which is better. ( In terms of working environment and the expenses incurred)

May i know when u apply it ? and when u got the offer ?

Glad to hear it. Which service line are u joining? Do u drive?

Hey guys. Have you all heard of cimb fusion pwc? I tried finding for more info about it on the forum but I couldn't find much. So if anyone could help shed some light, it'll be much appreciated.

I heard the intake is by batch and I found the application deadline is in March but when will I start work? As I'm still studying for my last semester and earliest I can start work is in June.

I heard it's only applicable for UK grads. Is this true?

Thanks

Hey! Could you perhaps share a few things that you would generally expect from the candidate during the interview? thanks

I know someone from Penang who tried to apply for a job at big 4 there but couldn't find. But he got a job in big4 kl. So you should definitely try to apply in kl. Good luck!

Guys, anyone apply training program at PwC before?
Will ask about audit standard, accounting standard or what others?

Except PwC, have any others firm provide same program for diploma student?
Appreciate if someone could reply me on this.

Thank in advance.

Do all Big 4 has a recruitment policy like if you not able to pass the interview or any test, they will screen you out for the next 1 year or so and encourage you to reapply again after 1 year?

Can I have specific details on all Big 4?

Thanks.

confident. When people ask you about A please answer A not from B to Z but still no answer for A.

submitted resume one month ago, still no news.. ==

so when is the right timing for big 4 to take ppl in?

Anyone working in Corporate Tax/ Indirect Tax division of PwC or EY?
Mind sharing your experience working in those division?

The turnover is huge, anytime is fine

Aeare that corporate tax kpmg do hire diploma holder, lcci, but those are world prize winner la
