screw big4's I am officially anti big4.... just there entire energy irks me and i dont know why ppl break their necks for a big4 job at the staff auditor level.. for one they work you like a slave without overtime and your hard work isnt ever fully appreciated..ppl wake up and start smelling the #$%^ roses. forget what a big 4 will look like on your resume. thats just plain insecurity... if you are hard working you can always further your career with big companies after being in public for a non big4 firm.. and it is much easier to get into a big4 as a senior.
i applied for the recently posted pwc associate position in NYC, i havent checked the status and i dont care. i just got a job with another mid size firm(an ernst and young member firm) the salary is comparable to any big4 and overtime is paid...
i think it is abosultely pathetic that people drool over big4. smh lol
labor omnia vincit, thats the only thing that matters

I am not concerned about how big4 is going to look on my resume.
I am just looking for a job. I did internships in huge companies during masters. But none of that is helping. It has been 7 months. I met n number of people who gave me n*n number of advises. Still not working. All the companies I did internships are on hiring freeze.
I am broke as hell and I am ready to do anything for a buck.
If you can help, drop me an email at badboyguda@gmail.com. I understand, it is not professional to ask for help. But as I said, I am ready to do anything.

oh man sorry to hear badboyguda(interesting name). normally my advice would be to go back and do the masters and take advantage of the on campus recruitment but i see you have passed the masters stage.... not sure what else to say besides passing the cpa exam and sending out you application package(resume, cover letter, exam score, writing samples, transcripts, degree , etc) to every firm. thats what i did and got lucky with one.( and i have only passed one exam so far)
few questions?
whats your age?
Where are you located?
Have you taken the CPA?
what did you do in your internship?

Firstly, I did my masters in MIS. I applied to an IT position in Advisory.
I am located in New Jersey. I moved to NJ 5 months ago from IL because someone said that I would find my kind of jobs in NY. And, sometimes companies insist on local candidates.
I worked as Business Analyst in all my internships. I am looking for similar kind of positions (Techno-functional).

did you apply to a recently posted entry level IT assurance position with BDO. I did and they called me but the recruiter leveled with me and said they are looking for someone more on the IT side of assurance.. Thats sounds like a job for you...
and i see so many analyst jobs on indeed.com, its strange you havent found anything. keep at it and good luck bro
