PKF is quite a large company. Its size is just under the size of Big 4 apparently.

But to the topic: my friends got the calls too! They apprently did the Phone Interview that went for like 20-30 minutes.

Oh yes, PKF has the attitude of a miteir and the work of the Big 4, so that's really good experience.

Which ones did you apply for Namu?

Yes, my friend said tha too haha.

I applied for PwC, E&Y and KPMG. I don't know why I am not applying for Deloitte. I just don't like the fact that they are only accepting about 10 people. I would personally prefer bigger group.

Besides, my mum works at PwC and from that I know that PwC is great but my mum said that E&Y and KPMG would also be great to have a look.

I am not too sure. But my friend said that it was about 20-30 minutes and from that I would probably guess that this is like normal interview...

Re: Accounting Cadetships 2009

good thing about pkf is that its listed as a 'mid tier' because it isn't big 4 and has 'more than 15 partners'.

understatement really.. it has 160 partners.
it could be in a 'big 5' =]

Re: Accounting Cadetships 2009

pkf is the 6th largest in australia though

and the market cap of the big 4 is significantly greater than the market cap of the 5th

Nah 5th is WHK Horwarth, which is essentially just the previous WHK Group with Horwarth tacked on before Horwarth got bought out by Deloitte. I guess they saw marketing value in the dead brand name?

lol @ "aim"

I am sure they never do it. I mean, they are supposed to either give you the offer or rejection letter. If people didn't get any of them, that probably means that they haven't started it.
