You can look, but whether anyone will give you a job is another story. It is not easy for a 32 yo to look for entry account exec job esp with a soft job market and oversupply of ACCA cert holders.

imho it was a bad idea to leave civil service to join for dip. level pay. the exp. wont be useful and very difficult to progress after that even with acca as most finance ppl also have it.

Hi all, I have read some good advices from here and I am hoping that this thread is still active so that I can get some feedback as well. I am a penultimate student reading accountancy in NTU and I recently secured a winter internship spot at KPMG (this coming dec).

Since I will already be doing an audit role in one of the Big 4s, I am wondering if I should try a different internship during Summer (May next year). Is it better for me to try out the various banks in SG (DBS, OCBC, ...) or public sector (acc roles in govt institutions like HDB..)? Any advices on which will give me a better leverage in my future career? Should I even consider another internship at one of the Big 4s? I'm currently on track for high second-upper.

Thank you!
