since they arranging u for interview, meaning that u hv send all ur result to them right?

I need to contact with them so I can follow up my status due to last time I have send my result transcript in scan copy and have mention that my final sem result not out so soon, so I promise them will call back, until last 2 weeks, I just realised their phone now in The Gardens, thats the reason why I need the phone number that can be contacted) icon_question.gif

no wonder, 1st class honor is IMMEDIATE FIT YOU into consulting team for sure...me is cgpa above 3.0 but lower than 3.6 (which means 2nd upper, directly fit me into technology solution team)

let me clarify:
1st class honor == CGPA 3.7-4.0
2nd upper class honor == CGPA 3.0 OR 3.2-3.69
2nd lower class == CGPA less than 3.0 , more than 2.5 (from this level, consider toilet paper, don't ever show to MNC unless you have brilliant extra-curriculum activities involved with prizes, that's the exception)
3rd class == CGPA more than 2.0, lower than 2.5 (toilet paper if wanna apply a reputable company)


LOWER THAN THAT....GENERAL DEGREE, no longer honor (BETTER TO RETAKE NEW COURSE)

so, u r lucky....bcoz consulting team and technology solution team , salary range is 1000 per month different (meaning u get 3.2 - 3.5k, others only 2.2-2.5k)

so, keep in touch, so i can refer to u if u work they well, tongue.gif

@logix

they gv u higher salary into consultant team u don't want? is big difference u know, consultant team give better impression (although u no need development), but u earn fly high salary, compare than u select tech team, more work, more task, but lesser salary...ya, u gain the experience to do development, but if u wanna climb faster, consultant is the path...

i know is quite weird to compare with this way, bcoz they based on academic result to measure r u capable to handle the consultant task, to understand ur maturity to think, analyse and give proper solution.

Wow, thats kinda harsh for you to compare a degree scroll below 3 as a "toilet paper". Are you saying it is worthless piece of paper in the eyes of the employers from reputable/MNC companies?

Then how about telling most of my friends who have "toilet paper" degree, now are currently working with those companies, and even working abroad?

Lets talk...
*
your friends who get their 1st job is it under MNC...if yes, then you should look properly on my wording....below 3, but with extra-curiculum activities with prizes as support, then is different story.

if no, meaning they get their 1st job in other place, work hard n smart, gain experience then they just jump over to MNC

if ur friend hv try to apply sime darby management associate programme, during interview, they directly ask ur result 1(before u start to do ur introduction), (i being offered the post but i dont want cos it spend me more than a month just offer me, that time i got 4 offers on hand oledi..theirs are the last 1....)

AND REMEMBER, OVER THIS THREAD IS ALL ABOUT ACCENTURE....ACCENTURE AS I KNOW THEY RECRUIT FOR CGPA 3.0 ABOVE....not believe, pls check their website at career section...it indicated

during phone interview, they have mentioned to know ur pointer, lower than that pointer, sorry to say u r not QUALIFIED WITH THEIR MINIMUM REQUIREMENT....

Toilet paper??

For BCG and Mckinsey, IPTA = Toilet Paper regardless 4.00 or 3.99

Can I say that?
*
not really...bcoz they will have possibilities give chance to u for their interview session...

sorry to interrupt...but how about people with experiences?
do accenture still look at the CGPA?smile.gif
thx
*
of coz no longer important...experience absolutely will overwrite ur CGPA result, bcoz at the end, ur referral will no longer use academic referral anymore....

what i mention previously, is all mention about fresh graduate / freshie, with average CGPA must be 3 above, if lower than 3, unless in ur resume/ CV have mention about extra curiculum activities with prizes, then at least is another proof that even u are not really good in academic result, but from extra curriculum acitivity being joined, u show ur enthusiatic to work wv group

the one who shoot me let's talk should review what i mention about toilet paper issue (i should bold the wording so u all won't get confused anymore... blush.gif

last week i applied for consulting graduate programme and my cpga is only 3.55. until today i still didnt get any call from them. i guess i already failed  sweat.gif
*
1 week u say u failed? gosh, do u know i applied for 1 week that time, they just call me asked me to send all my transcipt to them, after one month, listen, is one month[COLOR=red], they just call me to give me interview...

their process slow, becoz too many candidate apply, somemore they have another program which is provide for australia graduate back malaysia campaign (some sort with this title), are also under same period.

Do u expect them to be that fast? you have to remember, this following 3-6 months are the peak season for fresh graduate recruitment.

every industry have their own recruitment period to fit the human resource market share. so, whenever who want to get jobs on certain industry, please do some research, ask your friends, forum and other else where to know more.

don't thought that only finish final sem exam just apply jobs, i start to interview before my final sem final exam started, nearby final exam period, have 4 jobs offer provided...

Not to argue just share my own experience, throughout my hunt for job, I actually noticed that MOST not ALL MNC or big companies lets say oil and gas or like western digital, panasonic minimum requirement for fresh graduate is 2:1 (Second Class Upper). However those who got lower no worries just try and apply also, if you don't apply you will never know whether you have the chance to join the specific company.

Anybody reading this thread already working in Accenture..? Intro a bit tomorrow my first day.

hey, u so gan jiong for what...1st day just make sure u bring ur handsome face, smile always, be friendly with ur team on training, think before u speak (no rojak english, i bet u won't bcoz u got 1st class honor)
