CAs not active in the startup world

Hi,

 

Forget about startups and comparing with IIT/IIM, huge herd of CA's are joining in BPO/KPO in the name of "Career Opportunity"  I am sure that I will receive lot of counter replies for my statement, but facts remains same.

 

Regards

Yes, I agree with you. They are snooping low to the level of B.Com level jobs and I have heard of CA's joining call centres too. Again we can't blame ICAI but it is the attitude and smartness of students which needs to change.. Hope ICAI comes with some career counselling modules.

CA exams tough t clear. People spend quite a bit of time on that. At 22 or 23 u can become an MBA, even if u r a avg student, but that's not d case with CA, after completing the course already they find themselves lagging behind their peers and so there's a rush to become financially secure that they search for Paying jobs. Remember most jobs ask "either CA or MBA " thus equating both! Further CA exam corrections are strict unpredictable mostly. Doing CA is tough,lot of school toppers too fail, takes a toll on personal life so the passed students jump immediately for packages only ignoring the job descripttion.

Agree, CA doesn't get what he deserve. A struggle of 5-6 years even more, so much study and finally so much stress. Basically our politicians have involved sharpest minds in form filing and all these stuff so that they can easily do what they want to do, because mass will follow them anonymously. Accordingly things are working. They change forms every year......why??......it is over my mind.

At the age of 21 , you can become CA. I agree that new ca fraternity have a narrow vision. But the blame game cannot be ICAI. I think one is himself/herself responsible for narrowing themselves to a traditional paid job be it at a big Ca firm or at bpo/kpo. CAs can be the best businessmen and entrepreneurs. I opine they have forgotten that its lot more in doing business than accounting or auditing it.

Bcos I think We are not trained as a Entrepreneur but rather as Managers or custodian of business. So our mind set is never of starting a flipkart but rather Work in it.

People should do what they love, love your work and don't follow money.degree is just an educational quality, dedicated to your work and it gives you everything.

After completing 3 years of articleship, every student, most probably is under some financial obligation. Living 3 years in a metropolitan city with 5 or 6 thousand stipend would push us into financial obligations and immediate requirement of money! Taking risk of a start up at that time and age is practically not possible. After a couple of years of corporate job most of the CAs are habbituated to that work environment and your question remains unanswered! But being a CA knowing in out and out of the the business field would not be difficult to set up a business..

If a CA final student is not pass ca final exam then what is other opportunity for him....

tell me who trains TATA and ambani

i think CAs are not ready to take risk , we are happy in the safe zone with an regular salary income .

it needs to listen the inner voice and readyness for taking risk for doing something out of the box .

I come across students who wanna copmlete CA CS CMA all three all together.... now again weres the concept of "out of boxxx theory" all think alike its just that its a supporting to their name.... 

I dont know, but according to me one qualification is enough to be unique, wat counts is how u think nd convey yur ideas......

Don't tell me CA taught Dhirubhai Ambani, Ratan Tata, etc to do business. 

Its a personal choice, to do anything or not. A person who doesn't want to start a business will never start a business, irrespective of being a CA student or not. You should ask yourself about what you can contribute to others and what you can do for yourself. This is what I've done/plan to do : 1. I setup my website www.easyca.info during articleship. Plan to make it a free online coaching portal after I pass. Haven't posted much yet. 2. Published an android application on Google play store. CA One - a simple bookmarks application for students. Over 1000 downloads. 3. Testing my stock trading strategy in virtual trading on moneybhai.com 4. Preparing for CA final G-1 . G-2 cleared. Instead of wondering why nobody is doing anything, you should start doing what you want.
