And that is based on what?

True but at least it's a lot closer to the front office 'dream' which so many people seem to think of when they hear the word 'finance'.

Try to think of examples whether in your schoolwork (e.g. group assignments), charity work, extra curricular, etc. These questions are designed to flush out to see whether you've experienced much and how you handled it. And the things you mentioned would fall under extra curricular. Work...

Just keep an open mind because the people I know who did business cadetships all had an expectations gap with what the job actually entailed. Some have stuck it out (including my friend in UBS who now works in UBS HK) but if you are thinking front-office, you are far better off going with...

Let's also not forget what the definition of unemployed is... and how it can vary.

Also to OP, remember to BACK UP YOUR LIBRARY DATA FILE! This will be in your iTunes music folder and be called <your name> Library or something to that effect. The safest way to do it is to just back up the whole My Music folder or wherever your music is and include any non-music files which are...

ps. I'm not trying to be a **** here but just trying to clear up many misconceptions and remove some of the irrational or disproportionate glitz and glamour people associate with finance.

Hope you don't plan on saying either of the above in your application/interviews lol. Either way, I guess the challenge which I have for all those people who are anti-accounting is how does the business cadetship differ from an accounting cadetship other than name?

Explain to me what the different roles actually involve then :)

No idea for 2013. Not involved in recruitment nor have I worked at UBS.

I know quite a lot of people who took on business cadetships, including one at UBS, and it's interesting to look at what they actually do. Despite a lot of people hating the accounting name, once you get into it, you realise that the skills, experiences and actual work does not differ that much...

I wonder if anyone here actually knows what the UBS role involves other than it's "not accounting".

But this is on the assumption that his iTunes isn't able to be launched/opened.

I'd backup your iTunes library (that's always a good idea anyway) by burning or copying all your music files elsewhere, and then try reinstalling iTunes. Hopefully it can rebuild your library files if they were corrupted and maintain all your playlists. Worst case scenario you lose your...

Is it SHL?

good choice. i always tell people do the subjects which you're never going to get better at first (e.g. MAA and TAX if you're in audit), and then do AAA/FIN later on since you'll naturally become better at those with more experience in the industry. EBA is just a piece of cake though.

**** I hope I didn't throw it out!! Time to go find it. Thanks though! EDIT: I can't find it :( I found Dec 2011, Mar 2012 and Apr 2012. I think it must've been either Jan or Feb. Can you remember what's ont he cover?

How do you guys mount it well though? I find that no matter what I do on my lap and carpet, I can't get anything remotely decent in terms of playability.
