sorry i m rejoining this discussion late
so far as myself is concerned ... i confirm my rank in cwa finals and through cwa capus i had been placed in coal india ltd a maharatna psu... at an ctc of 6.5lpa
right now due to some factors promoted to next grade as sr officer finance at an ctc 8.5lpa
about the unemployent
situation is more worse now .....
no jobs for a person who does not have aquintances and refernces
earlier corporates were paying avg 6lpa
which has been reduced to 20-25thousand on an average
one of the person said above that Big4s are always recruiting
yes they are but for now only for refrences .....
now the current situations is ...from july 2011 till date who is where is stucked there
unemployed are either employed in very small firms or still unemployed
employed are into same jobs ,,,,,
note : few exeptions can be there
about the presumption that ca is the top course and all ... it is true
but the bitter reality is the pass percentage in may 2011 and nov 2011 which passed 4 times more students then required
abhay is saying smthing which is just a mere illusion ... bro come into the market first ... since u are a student and while i was same .. i used to boast same that i will get 50k per month ... after once u get qualified ... the most imp thing is the interview....
now is the situation ... people are sitting idle ... applying and applying ... and no interview calls at all ..
and if few are lucky and get a interview calls ... there are at least 10 times more candidates for a single position .....
i heard one of my pcc rankholder parents saying " galti kari bacche ko ca karwa kar .. is se accha kuch aur karwa dete "
iam not of view that ca is a small course
it is the top most course of commerce in country
but the only fact i would like to criticise is the pass percentage
if there is too much supply against normal demand ... the things goes undervalued or non valued at all
i was in hope that the nov 11 results would make the situation better but it came with more
at last i must say that all those who have qualified have faith on the degree ... it is the one which will make all of us earn a lot with respect . . . right now is the time which is the most frustrating . . . but once it gets over . . we all will surely rock like a CA always did....
P:s : do not amuse that i am agains ICAI ... i am and will always in favour of what it does ... just showing my non happy state with the result percentage ... which is making a loads of qualified people daily cry .
Peace out
