    Accounting Vacation Internships - 2009/10

    If you were to apply this year(closes later this year) the workshops would be run over 2009 and 2010. I applied in the later half of 2008, they ran 1 workshop in 2008, with the remaining in early 2009. Im going to have alook at PwC's program, is the application process pretty simple?

    Accounting Vacation Internships - 2009/10

    There isnt a weekly commitment for this program, its just workshops held at four different dates during a year. Its spread out enough so it wouldnt make a huge impact on uni/work commitments. They generally start at around 9 or so in the morning and finish early in the afternoon. Its not a form...

    Accounting Vacation Internships - 2009/10

    They run four workshops over a year they cover topics such as Deloitte's Service lines, Resume/Interview tips, Public speaking/communication skills, I havent had the last workshop yet though. Last two I mentioned are probably the most benefical. Most of the workshops you are generally working...

    Apps for Deloitte closed on the 31st in Sydney thats why i only heard from them on thursday. Thats heaps good how they worked your summer vac around your exchange, I didnt think they would be so acomodating considering the number of applicants they get. I get what you mean by saying...

    Accounting Vacation Internships - 2009/10

    Im doing the Deloitte Development program with Deloitte atm, definitely recommend it to any first yrs reading this. But it was the same application process regardless if we were in that program. I just checked the closing dates for Deloitte, they closed earlier on the 22nd in Melbourne, which...

    Accounting Vacation Internships - 2009/10

    Thanks guys, I submitted my apps for Deloitte and EY roughly mid march, they called me today and yesterday. I know directly from the grad recruit team at Deloitte that they only started calling ppl after apps closed, so it wouldnt be surprising if you hear from them early next week. This might...

    Summer VAC - info regarding the different service line

    Don’t get so tied up about why u want to work in a particular service line, its only 1000 characters which you will use up in no time just introducing your thoughts. As Pace said the majority of us don’t have any accounting / professional service experience, after all we are applying for summer...

    minimum pay

    Last time i checked the fast food industry does not pay employees based on performance. If it did turn out an employee was that bad, they're casuals for that reason.

    job with no payslips?

    Thats why i said it sounded dodgy i thought you're meant to be taxed at the highest rate if you dont declare your TFN, regardless of age.

    minimum pay

    You just starting working there didnt u? Are you sure your not on a "training" wage or something simillar, anything less then $11 an hour is just dodgy for someone your age.

    job with no payslips?

    Are you sured was taxed appropriately each week? sounds dodgy lol. When i was working in highschool(under 18) I had a TFN which i did declare. If you havent given/declared a TFN to your employer they're meant to be taxing your income at the highest rate. BTW im not sure if any of you are in...

    job with no payslips?

    As an individual you CAN get audited, only for the last 2 financial years though. It is silly getting audited even if you did legitmately earned under 6000 but it can happen. You can submit a tax return for the last financial year and declare that income, but im assuming you havent kept a record...

    job with no payslips?

    Depends on how much you were earning each financial year, if you earned less then $6000 you shouldnt be taxed at all. If your hours varied from week to week ie more than $115 one week, tax would have been taken out through the PAYG system for that particular week. Likewise if you earned less...

    Majors/sub-majors help!

    yep, you do need permission from your head of school to do more then 4 units per semester, as lara said its generally not recommended and i do agree. Even if you did the bare minimum of work required you would have alot of difficulty managing work committments and a social life. You would...

    Majors/sub-majors help!

    You can do more then 24 units however you would need to do a combination of summer school and doing more then 4 units per semester to acheive this. Otherwise i dont see any reason why u cant do that key program with 2 majors. It might be alot easier if you done economics and finance as a key...

    Majors/sub-majors help!

    Economics and Finance isnt available as a major only as a key program, you can do one or the other as a major however. For example you could have Applied Finance as your key program and economics as your major.

    B.Bus/Com - ABL?? Help??

    Its quite possible to do a sub major with only 2 elective units, as haylz mentioned before alot of the sub majors/majors require units that you would complete anyway. So alot of sub majors might only require 1 or 2 electives to be undertaken in order to qualify.Majors are generally made up of 8...
