Anyone in the financial services industry for audit? How is it?

Indeed it is hard to find, the entrance was built up with traffic when I reached. I got no choice and ended up parking in the basement of Menara Millennium. 2 hours there cost me RM10.

Actually the assessment is never meant to be finish, the introduction/instruction page before the test already stated that most of the candidates would not finish all the questions.

I think there wont be a huge different if you park at open site car park. They take 3 hours to reach the maximum charge if not mistaken.

I see i see. Thank for the information.

Hopefully what you said is true that they are going to revise the salary.

Hey Maggi goreng, I just read ur post. Are u getting offer after attended the interview on 12 November 2015? I called hr but he told me my interviewer havent make decision but it is already more than 2 weeks.

Hey, does anyone here know normally how long will kpmg kl reply or give offer after attended interview? I had attended the 12 Nov interview and hr told me that interviewer havent make decision yet. After I read all the review on lowyat, it seems that ppl who attended the same interview with me already get offer after a week. Since it is already more than 2 weeks, does it means that my resume just keep in view? He also told me that since now it is peak period, I might not be able to know the result next week and he doesnt want to give me fake hope of being able to know result next week.

Now it's really peak period. If you got no other offer, then wait. If you have offers from other firm, notify them in a polite way so you don''t burn bridge. Big4 keep all the applicant records and there is a cooling period if you failed in your application. You can try to call the interviewer to remind them because they are dealing with a lot of applications.

oic....
well, i screw up the interview......
one of interviewers gave me a lot of hard questions....
maybe I'm not up to their standards or there are too many applicants....

If you don't mind me asking, when was your interview with EY?

Which one pays you better?
I guess it depends on which audit team and industry they are going to put you in.

Hey thats great. Which industry will you be auditing? Starting January?

thanks
but I think I screw up the interview......
one of the interviewers gave me a lot of hard questions....

will big4 pay for acca annual subscription?

U can claim. But theres an annual cap

If after i signed the offer letter and receive a better offer elsewhere, am I still allowed to go o that other firm I got? I know it may not leave a good impression, but it is do-able right?

hmmm, that means if never claim need pay ourself ?

they asked me a lot about accounting standards, audit standards and audit methodology.....
my answer is not up to their standards especially on audit methodology since I'm coming from small firm, they were not satisfied with the way I replied

If you are applying for anything more than freshie, of course they would expect you to know the accounting and auditing standards as what their own staffs would know at their level

Sorry, I'm not trying to add salt to your wound, but just because you come from small firm doesn't give you the excuse of not knowing the accounting and auditing standards after 3.5 years. If that's what the small firm taught you, I recommend you run fast fast to another medium firm maybe, so you won't be forever stuck. Even accounting staffs in PLCs or MNCs are expected to know accounting standards these days

Is there any engineering major available position in this company?
