会计的前辈们请给个意见吧!!!

我现在是在INDUSTRIAL 里面作 Assistant Accountant, 一直想去CA firm里去. (为了学CA)
能不能给指条路?


本人情况如下:
本地 master 毕业  (of course accounting...)

1年casual bookkeeper 经验
+ 1.2年 Assistant Accountant 经验

是不是还可以到CA firm 呢?--------->是要去申请那些GRADUATE/ ENTRY LEVEL position 吗?


不行的话, 大概下一步怎么走好一点呢??  去中介可以要求55K+吗?

多谢 :si104

看个人喜好了吧,

个人认为CA在OZ比CPA要硬一些 　　（请批评指正）

Not all CA recognize organisations are CA firm.  Bank, large telecom co., large multinational co., government body are all CA accredited organisations.  So you can still remain in commercial environment while studying towards CA, but you need to find a position in CA accredited enterprise.

CA如今也改革了，条件放松很多，也不要什么accredited organisation乐，只要你找到一个CA MENTOR 就行了，即使那个mentor不跟你一个公司都行。

是的。

但是如果你的mentor和你一个公司，并且是你的上司或者higher level manager的话，对你的职业发展会有帮助，这也是mentor制度的一个优势啦。多一个套近乎，聊聊你个人职业发展的机会嘛~~~

挖，看来CA在向CPA学习阿，逐步降低门槛，这样的话也没必要一定要CA了。

CA program seems really hard, coz the assignment, presentation, and you need to attend seminars.(this one is what I like)

整个套路不一样，中短期看，不可能太趋同。而且，人们心目中根深蒂固的东西，有时候也不是说改就能马上改掉的。

我觉得考CPA还是CA主要还是看需要。

比如说，如果我在这个公司干得开心，这个公司的规模、行业、文化都很适合我，我希望长久的在这里发展，那我就要看看同事们都是CPA还是CA，CFO是CPA还是CA，在读的同事是studying CPA还是CA，有个peer competition的问题，也有一个coping with leadership的问题。做完这个需求分析，就可以决定考什么了。

为了一份开心的工作，是需要付出的。

那去CA firm吧，有机会碰到不同行业，但如果做银行/金融/保险就基本固定在一个行业了。

当然，到了CA firm，就要读CA啦，不然很没有诚意。
