[quote] Hi,Thanks for your detailed instruction. I got an offer from Warwick Msc Accounting and Finance program. I don't have any previous working experience and I am current a student In a Non-UK overseas university major in accounting. I wish to get an entry level job relating to Accounting or corporate finance, such as the big 4 or bank. I have passed the first 9 paper of the ACCA. I got an MSA offer from UIUC, if there is a better chance to get job in UK, I will give up the US school.B. By the way, I can't get a visa by my own . I do need a company to sponsor tier2 visa.. Your information is very important to me, so I hope You can share more. Thanks a lot. [quote]
我记得我大二去面试internship的时候,很多tier 1 IB的candidates基本都是牛剑/LSE/IC,再过来就是warwick了,别的学校 (as entry level)在这个industry稍微人少一些,因为ib基本都在伦敦啊,要根伦敦的candidates竞争,除了牛剑,还真不多。当然你要是去london 以外的office, e.g. Manchester office….majority would be from Man Uni拉.
虽然现在IB不太明朗,但是big 4 招人还是招的满厉害的,而且都是entry level (jnr associate)之类的。Big 4 是肯定可以sponsor 签证的。其实大公司都可以,只不过因为那该死的名额限制,公司就less willing to get ppl who need visa拉。反正根猎头交流,第一句就是问,你需要visa吗?自己能解决吗?。。。。(汗)。。。
所以如果你不介意,you can start from big 4.
有ACCA的话big 4 你可以尝试申请experience hire。不一定能成功,因为你没有实际工作经验,只有exam pass. ( 只有这个qualification 在big 4 也不是hugely useful)..进了firm 还是要take addition exams to convert to ACA. (当年是这样,现在不知道有没有变化)。But does not hurt trying.
但是说不定等你毕业的时候全球经济好转,这个行业又开始蓬勃了也说不定。
你美国是什么学校,要是特别牛的好学校那就不要来warwick, 如果是比较一般的,那warwick’s name should only do good to you.
