I suppose on the other hand a firm wouldn't want to send a rejection letter if someone was in the "2nd round offers" kind of stage. Not all firms have this sort of recruitment strategy but I can imagine at least some of the smaller players would rely on this technique to ensure they get enough...

Never heard of it before... how are you affiliated with it Tara? Or can you share any specific insights?

Is there a chance the track could bend?

Sorry for slow reply but I'm too lazy to do it (but it doesn't look too bad). That being said I can give you some tips. 1. It's only for 3 years so the easiest way of doing things is to calculate what the dividends will be rather than trying to come up with a magical sequence & series formula...

I guess if you wanted more than a 2 seater, you could go for the 350GT which had kindof a back seat. Back on to this 350z topic, I'm very tempted to buy one for kicks. It's late, I'm sitting in the office, and I feel like spending money. They start at around $25k with around 130,000km's... or...

Re: CADETSHIPS 2012 Discussion Thread Easiest is questionable to describe- I found audit the easier but I've been doing audit for so long as a job (nearly 5 years now since I started my cadetship; note I worked as a casual throughout the period I was FT uni). If anyone in audit ever wonders...

Historically I know that PwC is willing to negotiate if you have a specific reason for wanting to study at a particular university. At the end of the day it comes down to a combination of; a) what offers flexibility for the cadetship (less of an issue now that you guys get 7.5 hours/1 day off...

Sounds like the website/application is geared towards NSW students. Anyway, from recollection you will be required to have your school reports and whatever the equivalent to the SC is in Melbourne (i.e. the exams you sit when you're in year 10 which are standardised across the state). I...

Re: CADETSHIPS 2012 Discussion Thread Biggest tip for anyone considering this path is to try and do it with a Big4 firm. All of the top firms spend big on ensuring the guys pass with additional tuition services, teachers who respond to email queries right up until exam day, mock exams (held...

Re: CADETSHIPS 2012 Discussion Thread Moved your posts here since it's more relevant :) I've found it alright to be honest. It's challenging at times but it's infinitely more useful than uni ever was. I had to write a technical analysis a few days ago which required me to reference and quote...

Stereotypically I can see where you're coming from here but also keep in mind that there is an industry for HR consulting. It sounds so trivial but further up the career path there are opportunities in terms of progression/succession planning for companies, remuneration consultants, etc...

I don't know much about HR but if I was to point you in a direction, various websites offer salary guides for various professional industries. Off the top of my head I can think of HAYS group but there are quite a few out there which will give some indication.

Re: CADETSHIPS 2012 Discussion Thread Nope :( Assuming I passed FIN111, I have the final EBA (ethics) module to go.

Without knowing which firm, what interview stage you're upto or which area of the business you have applied for, any tips we give would be generic tips (and the same as what you'd get by googling interview tips!)

It was really nice meeting some of you guys at the evening tonight. I'm impressed at the people who figured out who I was ;) I don't think there's ever been an ICAA function over the past few years where someone didn't go "hey are you that sir-emm-iffy dude from bos?"! ps. For those who are...

Tutoring if you're smart. Escort if you're hot. Seriously though it's not just about the money. In the long run, any experience is good experience especially when applying for other jobs. Just get some experience to show discipline, ability to work with customers, ability to work in teams...

Don't forget guys, the cadetship information evening is on tomorrow night in Sydney (Wednesday 18 May) at they Sydney Convention Centre. URL: http://www.charteredaccountants.com.au/Students/Getting-connected/Cadetships/NSW-Cadetship-Evening

Sorry guys been busy with CA exams and all- surprised none of the other cadets/ex-cadets on here have responded. It's demanding. Takes a lot of time and at the end of the day it's a FULL TIME JOB. Can't stress this point enough. Imagine what you are doing now for school- that is, 8:30am to 3pm...

I didn't know people with ATARs above 95 would want to drive that. Jokes. But seriously scissor doors are only good if the car came with them (i.e. supercars). If you go and fit it yourself, chances are it'll look shate and you've just lost a good amount of the structural rigidity of the car...
