Jobless May 2012 Passers

[arjay_mg]

Sabagay may point ka po sir. halos parehas lang ba ang experienced na makukuha ko when it comes to audit? gsto ko din kase na if ever hindi ako makapasok sa mga aaudfirm ay macompensate un ng salary. ganun

hmmm... through audit, you will have access to different processes of different companies... its the best experience there is imho...on the other hand although, when you go private mas detailed/specialized ang processes... you will gain mastery over the procedures. Kung long term iisipin mo maganda nga audit... you just need to have the right form of motivation... long term investment kakalabasan mo dito... you'll be reaping your rewards after mga 3 years or so...

hmmm... para sa akin okay na yung 1 year, paulit ulit na din audit eh.... I will try to go private and have my masters...

undecided pa din ako to tell you the truth...

[arjay_mg]

di ba pwedeng mag edit ng post dito?

*omit although*

hmmm...

chilax ka lang sir... we all deserve to pass 2011 din naman ako... but I got a job... practice nalang and try to focus on your interview... im pretty sure dun na nagkakatalo after pumasa...

eh how about bussiness process outsourcing? anong experience naman ang makikita ko dun?

[arjay_mg]

may client ako, bpo sya at out sourced accounting/bookkeeping nila... natrauma ko... I don't think they differ much, yun nga lang recording function sa kanila while audit does what it does... hindi sila pumupunta masyado sa client, although clients can opt to have it arranged. I mean, tipong in house na yung mga "accountants"...

yan lang nalaman ko dun sa outsourced accountant... isloted case lang siguro na malimali ginawa nung "accountant" na yun... hehehe

isa pa sigurong difference ay yung tipong you will handle the client from period start to end... di tulad ng audit may certain point of time lang tayo nag aaudit... sila, though may iba rin client, nka focus sila dun sa buong fiscal year ng client.... that's what i heard...

[Mabs_Belle]

hahaha. mababa talaga kapag auditing firm pero malakas naman sa experienced.

anyway...

im waitng for the call of RSBA within this week. grabe kinakabahan ako. kase sabi ng audit manager andami kong 5 ( which is limaang subjects) but i said, " Grades dont define me sir. Grades are mere numbers, they dont reflect the true value of a person. In considering decisions sir, we must also focus on qualitative factors". ayun, pumasa sana. hehehe. ive done 2 out of 7 interview already.

congrats ulit sa mga magooath taking mamaya =)

[peanut08]

@imianmorales: Truthfully they give quite low starting salary at the accounting firm we're talking about, based on my experience at the least. Pero makaka-bawi ka naman sa OT pay kasi puro OT ka naman.

Marami pala interview sa RSBA. O_O I'm still waiting for the call from SGV. I already asked for an update just this Monday. Sabi daw they might be calling me this week from what I was told.

One thing these audit firms ask during their job interviews:

Are you fine with working Over Time?

Yes, you are probably aware of this prior to the interview... Naman, its the hype of audit... We take pride sa OT...

Opinion ko lang, they should have added:

"Are you willing to work over time? and Unpaid?"

worst case I had, I used my Sick Leave to accommodate work... and I was not alone... Mine was voluntary, I had to or work would have piled up on me... my colleague on the other hand was imposed to do so... hay privilege mo na, gagamitin mo pa sa work... think twice before you say yes... money is not a good motivation in audit... kilalanin nyo muna sarili nyo...

yun lang... bow...

[peanut08]

Thanks for sharing some of your insights, arjay_mg!

This is probably one of the reasons why I'm thinking twice before going into audit. But I think if you are the type of person willing to sacrifice these things for future growth. I would say those people should go for it.

I most probably go to private since I'm not as tough as people who last long in audit. Medyo laid back kasi ako at nakatikim na kasi ako what it's like working in private. It's more my style eh. )

yay,, saang audit firm ka ba galing? bulong mo naman hehe

[Larry Tan]

Ang sagot dyan, yes sir. Tanggap ko na po yan. Wiling ako mag OT-Y FF - For the firm. Pag di na puede mag-charge sa client, i-cha-charge ko sa Vacation Leave (VL), tapos sa Sick Leave (SL) at kung kulang pa rin, pati na sa Personal Leave (PL) ang office time ko...

Sa audit, swertihan lang, may audit partners na kahit busy season na di pa rin puedeng mag charge ng OT sa client mo. Kung malaki naman audit fee ng client mo, kahit tulog ka puede mo i-charge as OT.

Well, life is unfair, get used to it...

Just had an interview at smart.. Supposedly final interview na yun... but the acctg supervisor who interviewed me encouraged me to go for sgv.. (she came from sgv actually, worked there for three years). She shared her experience there, (para *** kaming nagkwentuhan actually). She gave me some advices. (parang nanay *** eh hehe). Sgv daw ****... am still hoping na tawagan nila ako for the 2nd time.. 1 wik na ang nkalipas... may 1 week pang natitira.. haaay.. I was undecided pa kc, she was helpful to me in fairness.. now i know what i want... )

Grabe last week pa lang ako nagumpisa maghanap ng work at naka 8 na ako na auditing firm. namely, SGV, Isla, Deloitte, KPMG, BDO international (auditing firm yan not connected to bdo bank), RF Garcia, Manabat Delgado, at RSBA.

so far RSBA pa lang ang nagtext sken for interview. nakakawala ng pag-asa. hindi naman ganun kababa board rating ko, having an 81 average. un nga lang mdyo madumi TOR sa PUP having five failed subjects.

nagiisa ba ako? anyone?

Ang daming opportunities, wag i-limit sa auditing firms. Kung masyado tayong mapili, mas lalong tayong tatagal na tambay kakahanap ng trabaho.

[peanut08]

@Mabs_Belle: You are also waiting for the second call from SGV? I'm also waiting for their call. I asked for an update from them earlier this week, they told me to wait for their call this week. Try to call their HR up for the update.

@emptybutfull: True. Dapat hindi tayo limited lang sa audit firms pero meron mga taong gustong-gusto talaga magaudit katulad ni imianmorales. A
