LOL. When EY merges or acquires another firm.

I think it was probably the pioneer of innuendo in Dos games. Great game. Can't remember much about it except for the bus advertisements.

LOL haven't tried pirated DS games yet- I heard it's too complicated and it doesn't work well (yet). I also was originally going for PSP when I saw the graphics and the big name games appearing on it- but even though our humble DS doesn't look as good (graphics wise), the DS lite looks better...

True that's worse. But still, what annoys me most about being keyed is that it's not because they were ignorant or just a bad driver; they actually went out of their way, just to damage my car on purpose. That's what shits me the most.

For the Big4, Audit (assurance) is the one which brings in the dough. It's the largest revenue earner, and even though a lot of people like to bag it out- you'll learn a lot in audit. The skills you learn here can be applied to all other areas whether it be consulting work, forensics, or even...

I think only the Finance major "elitists" really care (or get annoyed) at this usage of their word... but too bad for them.

Our school doesn't advertise this stuff... yet they promote every kid who wins some writing competition. psh!

They gave it out?... I had a glimpse but didn't pick up on the rankings. Anyhow, I'm still waiting for the annual top 100. I guess this is yet another year of BRW's "my firm pwns yours" surveys. I wonder who leads in the BDO/PKF war. I also reckon it's only a matter of time before KPMG jumps...

Got my DS Lite last Sunday and a couple of games (Brain Training + Advance Wars:DS) and I love it so far! Even though PSP has better graphics and so on... I can't help but think of it as a PS2 in handheld form- whereas DS has new games which I haven't played before? Although when and if GT4...

You guys get mentioned in the paper? We didn't even get into our school newsletter. pshh. And I agree- whilst 4 years isn't much in the scheme of things, it's still an important decision which if chosen correctly, can lead you down a path for the rest of your working life. If that's not a big...

IIRC Pitcher Partners is proud of their staffing approach whereby people get rotated into multiple divisions so that they learn a bit of everything. As for Camphin Boston- I know someone who works there; she seems to enjoy it. Not sure if she stayed on or left. Don't know anyone from FH...

Well it's not too bad- I guess it depends on which firm you're at and how much work you want to do. Since this is your chance to gain exposure to real world accounting and learn a lot of things before the rest of your cohort, you stand to gain as much out of this as you put in. That being...

I can't help but think... what else would you call them? After all, finance relates to money.

True true. But I can't help but wonder if you go and appear as the referrer for a bazillion applications, and most of them turn up crap- would it really be of benefit to the next person to put your name down as a reference too? Anyhow, good luck with the hiring. Your office is still in the...

Did you get your car fixed?... and I wonder what you did to the person who keyed it. Damn anonymous mofo. Must be really bored.

I think it's hard to give anyone an estimate, but assuming your school is alright, and you maintain/improve your performance; I'm sure you stand a good chance of reaching your goal :) Try to study a bit more for 2u maths- I think that's probably one of the best ways to improvce your UAI in your...

You sure you want to put your name on potentially dodgy applicants?

Yeh there's like 3 or 4 envelopes which come over the week or two. 10 days should be sufficient- but make sure you try it out before you use it!

I so didn't intend for my little whinge to turn into such a debate... but anyhow, I'm over it. Despite what everyone here says, I don't mind the Integra. Just this guy annoys me for other reasons. I'd go into more depth but I really can't be bothered ranting. Although one thing he said did...

I think the defintion of recession of 2 consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth will probably be the thing which stops us from having a technical recession- but the effects of a recession are probably what'll hit us. Although, with all the targeting and instruments available, I'm inclined to...
