In Accenture there's 2 popular division which is:

1. Consulting
2. Solution Workforce (SWF)

To enter Consulting, you must have these criteria:

1. Graduated from Overseas from top universities (or Local universities with good results also can - but i believe they have quota)
2. Speaks English very well
3. Pleasant looking

So its very hard to enter Consulting honestly because only gods know what is their requirement. The pros is, your starting salary is pretty high compared to other consulting firms (PWC, EY, others) and, you definitely learn alot. Come on, you are freshies don't expect to go back at 5 lah. If you don't want work late, go work with the government. The main key points you should consider to work with Accenture Consulting Malaysia is the experience that you will received, and also the salary is OK OK.

Secondly, the Solution Workforce. To enter SWF is pretty easy, local universities are most welcome. You'll received the same experience like the Consulting folks. Name it. Now the draw back it, with the equal number of work compared to the Consulting folks, your salary is HALF from what the Consulting folks received. They said its the industry standards which i don't understand? Other than salary, i also realized the Consulting folks usually look-down towards those SWF folks. Maybe because these Consulting folks feels "glamour" and proud" to enter the Consulting compared to those un-lucky SWF. So, i conclude the draw backs is the HALF salary compared to Consulting folks, and you have to prepared to accept the racist given by the Consulting folks (the Manager from Consulting would do the same as well FYI). Blame the entry criteria.

Conclusion, only work in Solution Workforce IF you did not receive any job offers. Last resort. Or else, ready to face the racism and low-wages salary.

hye

Just want to ask, i just received a phone interview yesterday for a job i applied through the ACN website (just trying to test market for my CV hehe). For info, i have 4.2 years experienced working in a local MNC company, already promoted to senior exec level.. This is actually my 1st Job, and already been so long since the last time i attend any interview. I am from technical commercial background with an electrical engineering degree experienced in operation maintenance of a plant and now i'm currently in project development division, searching for projects. in 2007 i do my intern with PCSB in klcc.


What actually the perks that accenture can offer and what can i expect, salary etc?? i don't want my demand to be a bit low than market value.. rugi2.. huhu... btw, my current company already gave me a good benefit ( min 4 months bonus, free basement parking ,free gymnasium pass, yes i'm a gym junkie, gratuity after 10 years of working, haji/umrah passage, extensive health benefit etc)...

btw, i applied for assurance executive (min 3-5 years exp requirement) and the HR personnel told me it is not really a direct technical/engineering kind of thing, it will be more to support the client ,Petronas if i'm not mistaken. My current notice to resign are 3 months and they ask if there any buy out clause (it does look like ACN is desperate for people).
really need advise on what can i expect and what type of environment working in ACN.

Thanks in advance smile.gif
