Articleship

The firm which I just mentioned in the previous email is a small firm but everyting is computerised. There is no manual process. Also the Principal has told me that I will get to learn everything. Should I join it?

Should I tell him before joining that I will be wanting leave for C.A. Final & not to mention it to the institute as leave  & I will compensate for the leave taken by working later on.

In small firms it is said that we will have to do everything on our own. Will they guide me regarding what to do? Also when they send for audits to different places will other articled clerks or the head accompany me.

Also he did not mention anything regarding stipend. Should I ask him & if he says it will be as per the ICAI should I try to convince him to give me a higher stipend.

Also I don't have anything regarding things like VAT  & I may not be remembering things that I learnt in PE II as I had not learnt it seriously. Will this in any way affect my performance as an articled clerk

Hi
Thanks KK for ur advice.
But will it be okay if  I ask for a higher stipend? In my last meeting with the Principal he did not specify anything regarding stipend. And one of my friends said that I should ask & argue for it. Otherwise he will pay me as per the institute. She had asked for it with her firm & it had agreed for a higher sum.

Also should I mention that I will be taking leave for C.A. Final now itself. I want to inform him now itself because when I will take leave, it will be during the busy seasons of the firm(aug to oct.)I Also might be taking leave for more months than allowed by the Institute. I need ur advice friends whether I should state my requirements for leave now itself & say that I will compensate for it by working afterwards.

Also if I join the firm in Oct. 2006 I will be eligible for Nov. 2008. Can I submit the forms to the institute in Nov. (i.e. one month from date I join in Oct.) Will my attempt be shifted to May 2009 if I submit the forms in Nov.?
