Try calling the general line and explain to them, then they would divert you to the relevant department. At least this is what I did for KPMG.

Be proactive, make the impression that you are very interested in the job. smile.gif Good luck anyway.

Hmmm I guess the HR is really busy then haha. Just make sure you always have your phone ready anytime!

Well it depends actually. For some reasons they actually interviewed me three times thru phone, each asking slightly different questions, for example about my academics choice, why audit, why EY, strengths and weaknesses, basically those standard interview questions that you can get. Just be calm, prepare answers for those standard questions and you will be fine smile.gif

Wow three times just for phone interview ohmy.gif

Thanks for your advice! Hope they will answer my call later.

Thanks guys. Any other inputs/opinions on salaries are welcomed

Other questions:
1. if i sign with co A and will start in 3 months, then during that time co B offers me and I want to withdraw from co A, will there be any consequences?

2. I heard kpmg and pwc got assessment test is it?
*
Hi, for pwc, yes, there is assessment test which consist of numerical test and essay writing test smile.gif
If you pass the assessment test, then they will email you for f2f interview..
