Any good reason why you didn’t want to go for big 4 for your first 2 firms?

They’re likely to ask you that - because if work life balance is what you were after from the beginning, they’re bound to ask you that why a change of mind
I felt that even with FC from a lower ranked overseas uni, I wouldn’t get a foot in the B4. I have no daddy mummy connections. As such I was just ok to settle for smaller medium sized firms as the plan was just to get called. But well, things changed and I decided to give myself a few years in practice.

I signed with firm 04, as it reminded me a lot with the mid firm I spent a year with. Pretty much similar size wise, and work life balance wise. However, after signing contract with this firm I got shortlisted for B4 interview earlier this year by one B4. However I wrote in to decline the interview as I felt it was not right since I signed contract already.

Am thinking of applying there again, my worry is that I would be blacklisted.
