CA degree is seriously devalued

CA turned into another engineering degree programme .The meaning is on that words itself. What refers we CA guys are not the sole one man army of a company. Every field is specialised consider about Certified Financial Planner . Have you ever hear about before 15 years. Before 10 years if you passed an engineering programme you will be immediately placed not less than Rs 1 00000 . That is the position of CA too. But consider now. There are more than 150 Engineering colleges over Kerala consider the output you will be astonished. There are also many people who have supply or passed engineering with 5th or 6th attempt. The job vacancies are also low salaries are only up to RS 15000. If you are supposed to get a good career you need to get a good work experience. CA itself is not an answer for a career. For every profession whether it may be CA Engineering MBBS Nursing Pharmacy. What goes beyond the required amount may create surplus. This surplus create unemployment. That alone doesn't mean any profession lost its sheen. We have to believe in KAIZEN break your limitation and be positive

brilliant thought excellent ideas

good this what I wanted to say this thank you

@ alan,

Such comments look very good on paper, but in practicality such words fall flat on your face. Work experience and boundaries can be broken only if one gets a good oppurtunity, rest all is philosophical mumb-jumbo.

Also, unlike mba, medical and engineering profession there are no 1lac colleges at every street corner in the country. There is just 1 institute which imparts education and awards degree........therefore CA is a specialized course.

If CA degree alone cannot get you a job, then sorry there is no point wasting 5 years doing the toughest commerce course in the country. Work experience and addition of experience can come only if you get good oppurtunity.

Remember Sachin Tendulkar too played his first match at 16, when he was just a rookie........if same logic was applied to him.....he would have been doing a clerical job somewhere in mumbai and pondering over a lost career over a cup of tea.

@ hammad rashid,

 

very wonderful of you to point out what you did. But dude, such knowledge and tricks will be rusting in your brain if you get a 15000 clerical job which only requires you to calculate service tax liability and pay tax on time.

And if you are saying we can practise, then if you do not have a client list which even pays your monthly public transport ka bill, then again such knowledge has no relevance.

The buzz word here is lack of oppurtunity and a decent one.

"The best thing about knowledge is that, it never goes waste"

 

This knowledge is the only differentiating factor between a CA and a BCOM.

 

If you will not increase your knowledge base, you will always be calculating service tax liabilty. There is absolutely no probability of success.

But if you increase your knowledge base, there is still a probability that an opportunity may arise and that knowledge may come handy. Probability may be 1/100 but its stil better than Nil Probabilty.

 

We are at the lowest point of our lives. What else can go bad ? 

But we can prepare for the good days. They may or may never come.

But atleast we will not regret that an opportunity came and I failed because of no knowledge.

Yes this is very true. I completly agree with this. This situation is really very ridiculous. Firstly we have to try hard to become a CA, face failures now and than which is already a demotivating thing and over top of this we are treated as a freasher/Bcom passed student in the industry. This is the height of demotivation. And one more thing on top of all of this is that we spend so much time doing Articleship, we take so much efforts to learn things during articleship but when we go to search a job and tell them the expirence of articleship they just ignore it or just take it into consideration. If this is going to be the situation then why has institute made us complusion to do the articleship and that to for so long? And worst means we don't get a job and even if we get we don't get the payment as per our caliber. And everyone say that CAs are frustrated people.

 

Same problem with me. Thanks for conveying it in right way

Frustrated CAs

CA is just a professional degree not any big stuff Seek for a job no one will give you in your hand
