Calm down mate. You're giving off a very negative vibe, and I know for a fact EY HR browse these forums.

Anyone looking for an entry level role in insolvency? The firm I work for is hiring.

It isn't a cadetship but will provide training required and has some level of flexibility to accomodate undergrads.

If you interested or know anyone who may be interested, let me know.

Note: you need to be at least currently in your first of uni, be in the progress of completing or having completed your course to apply.

Before I start my cadetship next year, is it likely that the firm is going to ask what ATAR I got? I'm feeling the ATAR I predicted was a bit too optimistic since trial results.

Congrats!

They don't really care, as long as you make it to a course that fits their requirements.

Has anyone on here worked at Boroughs who could tell me about their culture?

I've done a video interview for PwC. Its a lot shorter than I expected and I wasn't chosen for AC (I didnt make it). But it was a unique experience, phone interviews are pretty much dead.

Hey guys, I have a question regarding the dress code for accounting cadets. With formal coming up shortly I will be buying a suit but should I get a couple for work or is a dress shirt and dress pants enough. Keep in mind it is a mid tier firm in the cbd.

You should have at least one matching jacket and trouser set. I found most days you will not need the jacket (Just for days you may have important meetings with clients for instance) and you may be able to leave it at work or just bring it as needed. It's also helpful to have in the future if you need to go to a job interview or formal occasion (say a Wedding or Funeral).

All your other trousers and dress shirts can be whatever you like. It might be worth getting a few pairs of the same trousers as the jacket. You'll wear them a lot more than the jacket, so you don't have to worry if a pair is damaged or unclean then that it won't match on short notice.

It's a relaxed culture in Australia, you'll never wear a suit unless you're higher up or meeting with clients. You'll be okay with slacks.

Good luck ppl

Remembering the days of being a cadet. Goes fast... and before you know it you're a senior, supervisor or a manager.

Also, for those who didn't receive an offer during main rounds but are still interested in a cadetship, I would suggest to search around after HSC and ATAR results come out. I think it's been mentioned previously in this thread but it's a common occurrence for people who received an offer to pursue different opportunities For example, the cadet that was supposed to start in my team January this year at my previous firm received an offer for Medicine, and opted to go for that (usually it's Comm/Law though).

A few mid tier firms will definitely advertise via Seek and through other means in the event that this happens (which it most likely will), and I feel as though not many people capitalise during this period.

Hey everyone,

I wrote up a list of all accounting firms in the Sydney area which I found on a Google Doc who ran cadetships this year.

Hope it will be a good resource for people like myself who are applying in 2018 for accounting cadetships.
