Hi all.. Now that i have only AUD left to give i was thinking that it would be a good time to start applying to the Big4.

I basicaly have a tax backgound but that of Indian taxes.. so was unsure of what should i get into here...

Firstly do i have to mention in my resume which field am i interested in??

Also i strongly feel that i shouldnt get into Tax without expereincing the US Audit... so what should i do??

Please suggest me what is to be done...

Can i get into a Big4 as an Intern?? I do not have a work visa... would they (Big4) still take me... so then i have time to decide what to take...

Im really confused as to what to do...Please advise!!

Thanks.

Not having a work visa makes things difficult. Without a visa, you definitely will not get an internship, and there is no chance they will go through the expensive process of getting you a visa just for an internship.

In my graduating class there were many foreign students, and none of them got a Big 4 job. Unless you are have particularly attractive talents it's tough to get a work visa, especially for an entry-level position.
