    Accounting Cadetship 2008

    I think that with Walter Turnbull the big thing with this is teamwork and leadership. Just make sure you know everything there is about those in terms of examples. I had a really curly question about change... totally mucked it up. Also the first question, i prepared for it but totally had a...

    Wow. Just had an interview with Walker Wayland and that was unbelievable terrible. I made it through to the second round in a couple of others plus business cadetships and those interviews were great.... just totally choked out there today. Oh well, I guess it is good interview experience...

    Accounting Cadetship 2008

    Hmmmm. I cant remember exactly what I put because I did the application about three or maybe 4 weeks ago. I remember I saved my answers in a word document... I remember answering a question: outline awards you have receieved. If I were you I probably would do it... after all you're not going to...

    What do you want to be when you grow up? Plans for after the HSC?

    Something involving numbers... hoping for finance. Looking to do commerce or business or applied finance at university...applying for a couple of cadetships so that they can pay my way through Uni... HECS or even full fee paying sounds like such a bitch.... would much prefer not to do it and use...

    Accounting Cadetship 2008

    Does anybody know as to when most of the accounting firms contact us? When I say most... I mean those who have applications closing on 25th June? I guess it is a little rich to expect that they will contact us the following day. Thoughts?

    I think it depends on the company as to whether or not there is a group activity or a meeting or whatever... I think I remember Joanne mentioned that it varied from company to company. Definately would advise a CV and cover letter if we get called up

    I sure hope it is this friday. I cant wait to find out though...the suspense is almost killing me. You reckon if they email straight away they will attach a company name too?

    Accounting Cadetship 2008

    Nah I havent received that yet... i thought they would do that when applications have closed (25th June) and they have eliminated a couple of hundred people based from what they read in the application form... and i presume that test would knock back another 50 odd right?

    Dont think you can do much about it now. I dont think it matters that much, they're 5 reputable banks... cant really go wrong. Besides if you make it through to the interview they will probably assign you a random one because you didnt have a preference... maybe by chance they might randomly set...

    Cheers. Chapman Eastway and Walter Turnbull. I know they are two small firms (small firms seem to be the only people contacting applicants before 25th June)... it is interview experience nonetheless. Think I would prefer a spot big4 or even this business cadetships one... lets just wait and see...

    Thought the interview was really interesting. I didnt have Alister... the head guy... I had this some Asian lady and thought it went really well... guess we will see how well it was when they get back to us by the end of the month right? Relaxed atmosphere... just dont be afraid to use some...

    Your school mails them out to you right? Why dont you speak to the head of studies or headmaster or whatever the highest person is and get him to email you a copy.... that is what I did for mine and it works a treat so far. They emailed me a PDF version of it which student cant change... which...
