据我所知很多毕业生培训计划都可以允许你最多有２－３年的工作经验。so take it easy!

i suppose so. actually, the brochure from AXA didn't specifically say that people having been graduated for more than 2 years wouldn't be able to apply. so I just took the chance.

BTW, most people would think that you can't apply for a graduate program without a PR. it is quite true but you might still want to have a try. i met a girl during the interview with AXA and she told me that she went for a group assessment at EY but they eventually turned her off because she didn't have a PR. she failed at EY but at least that meant some companies may claim they only intake local graduates but you can still try until they specifically ask for something for proof.

thanks~~

no...the questions were all about behavioural questions during the first round. round two was about testing candidate's logical thinking and general calculations. in the third round, i was given some questions that had a bit to do with accounting background but more on the analysis side, eg. based on last year's performance, how would you think about the company's strategies in the next five years

HSBC

恭喜一下！！！！！未来就从这里开始的！！！！！

恭喜楼主了,真是很可贵的文章.

最近在工作版看到很多TX都坚持自己的理想和信念,都经历了不少的挫折和重新调整,少则几月多则论年,我对你们的精神真是很佩服! 希望在不久的将来若要重新找工作,也多向你们学习.

另外楼主的策略是对的,先找家小公司干着,继续找合适自己的职位,这样不论从工作经验上,还是心态调整上都有好处.

thanks for everyone who has expressed their congrats and encouragement!

apart from working in smaller firms, volunteering is another by-path to achieving your goal. i have been volunteering with a small organisation for almost 2 years. the good thing is volunteering experience is highly regarded in AUS and employers see your committment and dedication in that.

however, i think it needs to be a bit careful when choosing which kind of volunteering you want to do. try to do something that give you experience either closely relates to your academic background or that give you opportunities to learn and apply team work, leadership, management skills, communication and inter-personal skills, etc. employers are less interested in your experience of doing some very labour intensive voluntary works.

seek.com.au and other major job seeking websites, as well as unis' employment websites, usually have a seperate section for voluntary works :si142

更新一下东西~~

刚刚给那个提供Phychometric Test的公司去过电话，问了一下test的结果。那个女同志说偶verbal reasoning相比较其他两个差了点，不过虽然最后不因为英语是我的第二语言而给我加分，但是他们在写report 给AXA的时候有把这个因素考虑进去。

numerical reasoning就是考基本的计算，逻辑和数字理解能力。还有一个section就是挺常见的考智商时候会看到的，先给你5个图案，让你选出第6个来。那女的说这个主要看你有没有发散性思维，能不能比较快地接受和应用new idea，能不能learn quickly。

她还说AXA的这个test没有测personality （比如team behaviour之类的），不过这个是目前的大趋势，很多大公司都开始注重测试这点，看来除了要练好十八般兵器，内功也是不可忽略的阿~~ 大家+U~~

韬光养晦

恩，楼上真是肺腑之言啊， 敢问楼主 在哪所大学毕业的

回楼上, 墨大会计的。英语成绩忘记了，考这个不就为了移民嘛，考出来知道够加分就忘了，嘿嘿

牛啊！

看到我都热泪盈眶啊。
也有过和lz相同的经历，在经济最萧条的一年毕业，当地学生都找不到工作。
大家面临毕业即失业的困境。
后来最终找到一家大公司。当然没有lz的牛。但是也是跨国大企业。
作为当年唯一一位外籍员工，
入职第一天，公司居然通过中国分公司找到我妈给我写了一封信，
辗转很多人手交到我的手里。
我妈在信里写道为中国人争气！
虽然后来离开那间公司，但是毕业生第一间公司十分重要，会影响你的一生。
有了axa做你卖出社会的第一个台阶，以后前途无量啊。
