Don't they (or some) undertake the Masters of Tax?

Yep they're required to undertake that too. Well that's what I was told anyway at my EY assessment centre.

 

[Meads]

Tax is for boring people with no communication skills and love the numerical pad on the keyboard.

I have actually found that the tax group tend to be the more outgoing, confident, and exciting people at EY. I am not even passionate about tax yet, so I am being quite un-biased.

So what would that make MinAi, being a graduate auditor?

 

[seremify007]

Hmm I remember that people in EY could do Comm/Law (on cadetship) and then they had to do a Masters of Tax whilst everyone else was doing CA. I was also under the impression that if you did Masters of Tax, you didn't have to do CA; but then I guess it's probably a good post-grad qualification to have when working in a Big4 firm.

 

[roadcone]

at my firm you do CA then M Tax.

you can also double com/law

I'll get straight to the point. I got an offer from EY today . Now someone who has worked there give me their honest opinion of what they think it's like and whether I would like it there or not.

 

[seremify007]

There's a lot of EY cadets here... but I think they're too busy working Great way to get an "honest opinion" though!

 

[ricenoodles]

I got an offer from EY too

jasee, do you know when the EY post-offer evening drinks is?

Yeh I am a cadet atm, and I honestly really enjoy working at EY. People are great, training is awesome, they look after you, plenty of socialising (free beers) and chicks dig it.

If you outgoing and friendly (even if your ARE in audit ) you should find yourself at home.

So yeh...look foward to it.

 

[jase_]

Thanks for your opinion

ricenoodles: I think it's on Wed 10th May? lol. I'll have to wait for the e-mail or letter or something I guess.

 

[tactic]

Well done Jase and ricenoodles

Jase didnt you do a summer internship at Deloitte? I thought you didn't enjoy it.. I'd think EY would do very similar work :S

 

[jase_]

Haha yeh it is similar work. I have said I would accept my offer yet. I'm pondering atm.

 

[seremify007]

and chicks dig it.

ROFL. That's not the first time I've heard that one.

 

[Meads]

ROFL. That's not the first time I've heard that one.

Dont worry, chicks will dig you when you start as well.

 

[Minai]

Dont worry, chicks will dig you when you start as well.

It must be the whole suaveness with the young attractive male in nice suit, lol

 

[copious]

Haha yeh it is similar work. I have said I would accept my offer yet. I'm pondering atm.

Take it Jase, so theres one less competitor for me at other companies
