i disagree... getting involved in something now (just for the sake of impressing the interviewers) isnt going to develop much skills etc... whereas after a year at the accounting firm, a person will no doubt gain experience in dealing with people... someone who isnt as study smart will find it difficult to improve their 'smartness' in the same amount of time..
its all a game and i guess you have to play it, so fool them by getting involved in something now
sorry if i sound just a little bit cynical but in the interview it was like they thought u ruled a bloody country and had 50 yrs experience in everything...
