    Accounting Cadetship 2008

    It boggles the mind how some people who are straight out of high school and have probably been lucky to be earning over $150 a week are all of a sudden so infatuated with what they are going to be paid... Ignore the pay - worry about more important things. Besides, in my experience the pay...

    Accounting Cadetship 2008

    At PwC you have to call them Sir and Mam... Only kidding. You will find that it is generally pretty laid back, alot of people have nicknames etc. First name is the safe option, I would be surprised if anybody expects to be called Mr or Mrs whatever.

    UTS - Semester 1 2008 Guestimates + Official Results (16 July 2008) thread

    Don't UTS call you prior to results being released if you have failed a subject anyway? To give notice about any supp exam, etc.

    2008 tax return thread

    Prior to the most recent budget announcement, one laptop per year was exempt from FBT (not income tax) providing it was used for business purposes. The only income tax effect the purchase of a laptop has for an individual is the potential for depreciation over three years. But again the...

    Music 1 Scaling

    Look, if you are confident enough to be doing music 2, then there is going to be very minimal detriment to your UAI if you do music 1. I of course am assuming that somebody thinkin about doing music 2 is capable of getting 94+ in Music 1. As a case study, my mate and I both got 98 in Music...

    2008 tax return thread

    Haven't posted on BOS for a while but here we go... 1) Yes if you intend to claim your textbooks as a deduction you are expected to have receipts as proof of purchase. Keep in mind that just because you have a job and go to uni at the same time does not mean that you can claim a deduction...

    I am pretty sure most uni lecturer's have experience in the business world. Lecturing is not one of those jobs you walk into straight out of uni, you typically spend a substantial amount of time in the real world gaining experience before you decide lecturing is your thing.

    Music = crap UAI

    To calm anybodies nerves. If you are good at music, dont want to do music 2, and still want a good UAI...then do Music 1! If you are confident you can get a good mark in music, then by all means do it. I did Music 1 and got a UAI of 93.5 (I got 96 in music). And for those that want a...

    Travel on the job at Big 4

    That is not entirely true, I know a few people that have travelled interstate on client work. From both Tax and Audit. Just because you may work in the office in Sydney, does not mean some of your clients will not be based in Melbourne...alot of my clients have HQ in Melbourne for instance...

    Re: Cadetships 2007 A grad or cadet would of had nothing to do with it. As a cadet you will have much more important things to do, trust me. HR would of made the packs for you.

    $$ - aka What is your Traineeship Remuneration?

    Ohh right. That sounds better...I was struggling to believe that they would simply give every trainee $1000 for every subject they pass. Most firms reimburse for text books and union fees.
