Dear Cci Members,

Am recently qualified CA. I didnot apply for campus Placement programme since i cleared Final exams in 5th attempt.

I need your suggestions/guidance/opinion regarding my following queries..

1. Whether to go for practice or job in industry or job in CA firms????

2. Should i pursue any other course further for value addition???? if yes then please suggest..

3. If employment then which industry to select???

4. If practice/specialisation then which area to select??? tax or audit or something else...

5. what about abroad job.???

( Am not much interested in doing routine /repetitive work, i mean the profile should be challenging)

Expecting your reply...

To all If you have good reference in any good Mid Sized firm then go for it to gather knowledge in different areas.This will give you sufficient exposure for future if you want to go for practice.

If you want to go for job 1-2 years is the real struggle period because once you remove the tag of 5 attempts only working exposure will be relevant. Even if you don't get the big companies initially just check the roles nad responsibilities part even you have compromise the CTC part. Because once you are well versed with the relevant areas with 1-2 years of experience you cant get a good offer from big companies provided the recent slowdown get over. Don't compromise with the scope of work

Best of Luck

Consultancy companies means,they also run by chartered accountants but it is not a partnership firm it is a company

just like e&y do large variety of works,which works (stat audit,tax audit)requires authorisation of a member in practise they do in the name of firm,others like,due deligense,amalgamation,transfer prising,internation taxation like wise jobs they do in the name of company

just search what are well established consultancy companies near by u,and it is recommended to directly contact their office and ask for vacancy,

no one will bother about attempts if u r really worthy...all the best...

Dear CA Brother,

First stop getting gyan from others, you have enough of it. Call up some one living at a better city than yours and ask permission to stay there for a week or two and carry your certificates. Go Apply personally at firms, companies consultancies. Google to get addresses. only when you move out of home and VIRTUAL WORLD you would see result.

Best wishes.
