my cgpa is fine,3.50 out of 4.0,had working experiences in sales line and decent leadership positions in several clubs although i never done internship before and i just graduated and 26 this year.............both ey and pwc pg rejected me thru email after i called them up.........had a tax interview with kpmg thru friend's connection which i talked well and showed good knowledge but got a feeling they aint gonna hire me cuz interviewer said i was more of an outgoing dude who loves to meet ppl instead of sitting in computer all day and i screwed up the tax computation part a bit altho i told interviewer where my mistakes were............should i start from small firms cuz i got few offers with em?but it aint gonna look good if i apply as experienced hire in later stage.............. sad.gif ..............guess deloitte is the last resort but i gotta find out where the wrongs at 1st b4 applying to them.....anyway bdo still hasnt replied me too

What the interviewer told you about being outgoing is true. Of your personality us not suitable for the work that you will have to do a majority of the time, you'll be in trouble.

Accounting firms tend to be very structural and hierarchical. Being too vocal, can potentially be a problem unfortunately.

If you are going to specialise in tax, why not go to deloitte. The sentiment is that deloitte is the tax leader in malaysia.

Being an experienced hire only means you'll likely to be demoted when you move to a big 4 later on. The methodologies used, especially audit will be very much different too.
