i don't know where u get ur facts its easy to enter big 4 just to shed some light, on the calibre of candidates the big 4 accepts. I am in the corporate tax service side and my batch have about 13~15 of us... i don't know about the other big 4 or other lines of service. so I can't speak for the others. as far as i know, most of my peers have at least a second upper and some have even attained magna cum laude(shall not name names). Its probably not as selective as FO roles in banking but its also not a walk in a park to get an offer with the big 4 corp tax. Well' i hope this put things into perspective. |

Reply When you start looking for a job and don’t know exactly what you want to do, the best advice is to try different options. Think about all the spheres you may work with your degrees and choose the ones which are most appealing at the first glance. Then, prepare the proper application documents and go ahead. There are lots of online sources to help you create competitive resume and other docs, such as ://.businessnewsdaily.com/3207-resume-writing-tips.html, ://craftresumes.com/. I’ve read tons of articles before I made a really good ones. |

Usually the top 20% people are not interested in big 4, they will just reject straight away. The remaining some will just drag & hope for other better offers outside big4 to come along. Slowly this group will also reject until the remaining 50 people are the ones that accept & confirm start work. Base on my observation big4 usually gets the 50 to 70 percentile (between average & above average) of any cohort of fresh grads from the local uni. Below average they not interested, too good the candidates themself not interested. |

Unregistered | Lets say with 200 grads applying for 1 audit position, do you think they will blindfold n teekam teekam? Pay $2k+ pm still grab? | |

Unregistered | Sometimes if too many vacancies can, but definitely not normal. Deloitte & EY usually standards lower, but PWC & KPMG I don't think they will accept pass only. | |

Unregistered | Pass degrees entering Deloitte or PWC? That would be interesting. Maybe some industry professionals can verify this | |
