Good on resume , but if u want more exposure, try smaller firms. The learning curve is steeper for interns.

For full time staff, I think the learning curve in b4 only starts at a2 or s1.
Disagree, i’ve interned at both. went on to take PO at big4 and stayed for 5 years. mid tier is not structured. methodlogy is not consistent, it’s very dependent on the manager/partner. clients not as big or complex. at big 4 if you are good and you show you want to take on more they will definitely give you more interesting and challenging stuff (we are already short staffed so there’s more incentive to do this actually). but of course if you have proven to be the 9-5 guy, just wanna do your own work allocation. then the experience will be just as described as above.

don’t forget that in the grand scheme of things no matter how you paint the picture big4 audit quality is also better (although it’s at all time low now), the quality of your learning is also improved.

many times what i observe is intern just wanna get their internship done and dusted. experience is entirely up to you.

There are going to be people who feel that Acca is undeserving of the transitional arrangement.
You are quoting a page from more than 10 years ago.

It’s even referring to the old name of SQP instead of SCAQ.

And SAC already merged into ACRA.

Please quote a more recent source.

You can skip University by taking the acca route (2 years), after college.

Look at those AAA or AAB or AAC local uni grads that have no exemptions or at most 1 exemption for Tax paper. These ppl pushed themselves hard into uni instead of supporting cpa aus which was perceived to be less prestigious back then. Now end up have the shorter end of the stick if they are still staying in this industry. So they not only don't vote PAP sia, may be leave the country and migrate to bolehland liao ah?
Hi Bro, regarding ISCA signing MRA/RMA with ACCA, you heard this from who?

ISCA Head of SCAQ program, Melissa Wu?

Wah chill chill I can feel a bit of angst in this text. Guess auditors like to ask for sources. Haha. I'm not an acca grad, and neither do I support this nor the scaq thingy. Sorry if I sounded like helping to promote this here, but its not. I felt its not entirely fair to those graduated from local uni with the mra for cpa aust. That's why my original post supposed to be a bit sarcastic. Anyway these are just my opinion.

As for the acca part, may be if you dig dig some posts in Isca ig, there were acca grad asking in comment when will acca get rma/mra. Isca would reply and say something like wait, we have some good news by end of this year. If you are in official Telegram chat if isca scaq, maybe do a search "acca", someone asked the same thing and got the same reply. Cheers! Friday soon! 🙂

Talk about quality without increase in pay. Every year increase workload while reducing resources plotted.

Just give some exemptions to pacify new grads or sign whatever mra/rma w other jokers that capitalised on this dying unpopular sunset industry. Then continue to call it prestigious. Waste everyone time and money.
