My dear Friends,

 

 

I am interested in working in Mumbai Branch but would like to seek certain Clarifications regarding  the same.

 

I would be thankful to you if you could assist me in this exercise of mine.

 

I am currently CA FINAL Student with my attempt scheduled in May 2011.

 

Queries

 

1.                  What is the scope in working with them : in the context that whether we get  exposure in various fields in relation to different types of Audit, Taxation & the like, considering that I am desperate in Practicing as a Chartered Accountant after 2 to 3 years of working with them.

2.                  I am currently pursuing my articleship with a small sized Chartered Accountant Firm based in Mumbai.

3.                  Considering the Fact that I am 21 years old &  Rank Holder in PCC examination also wishing of pursuing CS, LLB (taxation), CFA and specialization in IFRS do they give adequate study leave if required after qualification as a Chartered Accountant.

4.                  What is the usual timing of work at these firms?

5.                  Do the applicants have a choice of their specialization while joining them?

6.                  At last but not the least would you recommend me to join there, considering your experience, if any.            

 

Which of the big four is best fitted in the above mentioned criteria?

 

Hoping & waiting for your guidance for starting my professional journey

 

Yours truly,

Hemu Kapoor

I suggest you to concentrate on studies and get thro in First attempt. Learning or gaining experience does not start or end with your Articleship. It is a lifelong process. You can have meaningful exposure after qualifying.

Thanks for your kind suggestion but still if any on could help me in this venture of mine
