Big Fours hire either rankers or an article with strong influence.

You should forward your resume through any known person working or related to big4. If reference is there preference will be given. Rank is there no problem at all.Then they will call you for an interview

It requires a much talent for getting the articles ship in big4.If there is any known person to you in the big4 or a recommendation from MLA's,MP's etc would be much preferred.There will be much preferences to the students who passed their CA-IPCC in the 1st attempt with the both groups.

Hiee Frnd...

most of the Big4's complete their recruitment process before the results itself...However it is better to get in touch with them to confirm the same.

Mailing your CV to their site would not help.Mailing to correct H R guys will help.

MY PERSONAL OPINION & FRIEND'S EXPERIENCE !!!

It would be great if you opt for a mid-size firm instead of joining a Big 4. In mid-size firms, you would be exposed to all aspects of a CA practical training, i.e taxation (direct, indirect, international), auditing, company law, FEMA, etc.. This knowledge would help you in choosing your path after you pass out in Finals. Currently good stipend & nice work culture might lure you to join Big 4, but later you might relent on this decision. I know many of my friends (whom I met in GMCS) from Big 4 who are stuck within the same Dept. for years & are now left with very less option to move out (from Big 4) to find a new Career as their experience is restricted to a particular field.
