Articleship Transfer to Big Firms

I've heard that Articleship transfer these days have been stopped by the Big Firms ... i.e. 1 cannot transfer himself from 1 firm to other Big Firm ... the Big Firms have stopped taking transferred articles now-a-days. So is it a waste to try out for a transfer now . I just now gave my PCE Nov.2008 - i thought i'll transfer to a Big Firm - so i got permission from my current auditor for transfer .

Its better to get the vacancy confirmed, and then discuss abt the transfer. first apply to the big4 orgs. if u get placed there, then u can leave ur current firm as well. but dont discuss it unnecessarily with ur principal now...and dont give up (abt big4) b4 applying...

u r thinking more & applying ur mind less.

Actually the person giving reference to me told that he'll give reference only if my auditor gives me permission for termination - so i just took permission from him that i am applying for Big Firms - I have now applied to KPMG thru reference and E&Y and S&S without reference . My time is getting so much wasted because i am not even going to my current office and i don't want to go there too . So just wanted to know how much time will it take????? - all Big Firms will tell that they don't have vacancy - its a standard reply .

everything in life doesnt always happen exactly how we want it to happen. u hav got to be patient. big4 people do hav other work than to select article trainees. keep that in mind & dont let frustration creep in. it may take time.
