    Does anyone actually like audit?

    Exactly. I've just picked up a vacation work position with a mid-tier accounting firm in assurance and consulting and hope to use the opportunity to secure a graduate postion the following year. I know that there will be parts that i'll hate about the job, but at the same time i'll be developing...

    Big 4 Accounting Firms Internships 2008

    For me it's all down to one final opportunity with Moore Stephens in Melbourne (had my final interview yesterday). At the end of the day folks it is just an accounting internship, obviously a great opportunity, but definately not the end of the world. Have learnt that the cultures of the Big 4...

    Big 4 Accounting Firms Internships 2008

    At the end of the day, these vacation applications are a process. The process does not always select the best candidates, but rather improves the opportunity of choosing the best candidates. I had did in internship at a big 4, had a grad offer from a big 4 and two mid-tiers and a bank, and I...

    Am yet to be rejected by KPMG after a partner interview two weeks ago. Does that mean you're still on the shortlist in case others drop out, or does it take a while to recieve the rejection letter?

    Big 4 Accounting Firms Internships 2008

    I'd try and play the partner interview with a straight bat (stay on topic and stay serious and enthusiastic throughout). They're also big on image, so make sure you shave, get a haircut etc beforehand. They'll also ask what skills you will need during vac work eg. time management, interpersonal...

    Staying friends after a break-up

    I always said if they were 'best friends' beforehand (ie very close friendship for a decent period of time), then they could remain good friends after a break-up . Never deviated from that position.

    Staying friends after a break-up

    Well if you were more into a bloke than he was into you, and he dropped you cold, would you really want to pursue a friendship???

    Staying friends after a break-up

    Yeh it definately is harder. Never had a relationship with a best friend so I've always cut off all contact and started fresh. Does depend on the situation you have, but I personally can't stand the eeriness and sour taste that's left over. If my current gf and I were to break-up, then I...

    Staying friends after a break-up

    Definately agree with you on that one, whereby if you're best friends beforehand, you're still gonna be at least friends afterwards. What I'm talking about is when you break up with a girl and she explains that she still wants to be friends. Are you really gonna hang around to pursue that...

    Staying friends after a break-up

    I'm talking about after they break-up, not beforehand. I'm not talking bout the whole 14-17 year-old 'summer bay' relationships inside a friendship group, but genuinely serious ones.

    Staying friends after a break-up

    Think you may have miss-read that one there mate. What I meant was that after a break-up the couple involved will never be 'really good friends'. There'll always be a sour taste from the break-up and that can't be denied. Have got heaps of mates, both blokes and girls, and all of them agree...

    Staying friends after a break-up

    The only guys who stay really good friends with the girl after they break up are either gay or they've known each other since they were 4-5 years old. Other than that, wtf would you bother wasting your time being friends with your ex girlfriend??? Move on, it's over.

    Big 4 Accounting Firms Internships 2008

    Bah! Still no response from KPMG Melbourne, so am guessing that I've missed out. Still gotta here back from EY, but also bombed out on the numerical test and am looking shaky at going through. Got Grant Thornton Tuesday who seem a good outift, plus BDO Kendals as well. Definately agree with...
