    Big 4 Accounting Firms Internships 2008

    Does anyone know about how you are assessed during the partner interview??? For mine it was informal and 70% of the time the partner was talking, with most of the discussion being about life in general. Any other thoughts??

    Big 4 Accounting Firms Internships 2008

    Three interviews on the one day sounds like a gruelling process. I hope they gave you a break to relax cos I'd find what whole day (Interviews, Group Task, Written Exercise) incredibly draining.

    That might be how they're doing it in Sydney, but I think for the Melbourne firm they are splitting it into two stages: 1. Assessment Day - Written Task / Interview with Senior Manager / Group Task 2. Follow up interview with Partner What was the process for you guys in Sydney?

    Well Done, I found the ppl at the group interview at KPMG were friendly, cooperative, positive, and team orientated. Looks like it could be a great place to work. Could you tell me what the next stage is after assessment day? Cheers

    The Student Unions remind me a terminally ill house pet that nobody wants to help get better, nor put out of its misery. The student unions themselves are slowly dying, and unless payment is compulsory, nobody will join. Most of my mates at uni have asked themselves, what is it that I am paying...

    Fair enough, I get ya. Had my group assessment yesterday (Wednesday) and am guessing if I don't here back from them by tommorrow (Friday) that I didn't make the cut. All the best with getting a vacation work spot!!
