If you haven't got any audit experience, you stand very little chance of getting an experienced role in the audit arm..and I do not think they will offer him EL opportunities.

However, they also have an accounting arm, he can try his luck there. They just do not have as much vacancies as an audit.

Thanks for your response. My friend's invite is for Accounting advisory tho. Does the same rule apply?

Very possible, am an example. One you've been invited to an interview, one leg is in. It's left to you to prove yourself during the interview and that's it. That you got an interview invite is a big deal. Prepare and study what their competency framework is and relate it your experience. Good luck to your friend.0

Thanks for this.. I'll show him your message.

Never say never..... anything is possible

When there is a job opening they would invite for interview based on Cv received , what if all other applicants are not from big 4, does it mean they would now leave that post open... then that their loss in head count so I believe it also based on what available ....

If the desirable is not available the available becomes the desirable

I told him same and advise him to give it all his best. I believe they would have reviewed his CV before shortlisting him.

If he works with a smaller firm(big 10), he stands a chance. I know a guy from PKF Kenya that got a manager role in a big4, another from an indigenous firm in South Africa got an assistant manager role. Just have the relevant experience, package your CV well and be prepared to defend your CV during the interview stages.

Thanks bro.. well, he's never worked in an audit firm before he has been in the industry for the past 5 years, hence, his skepticism. He applied on LinkedIn and he was surprised to be shortlisted for interviews.

I agree with those that have advised you reject the offer.

Its best you stay back in Nigeria, attain the manager role whilst working on your ACCA.

As soon as you get the promotion, you can start reapplying. I'll suggest you strip the location of the Big 4 from your CV and just have the name of the Big 4. If asked during the interview which country you worked, then you can mention Nigeria and reference any global end client you worked with (if any). Do not be surprised that the reason why you have been offered a role lower than what you applied for (which i find rather insulting) is because you have Nigeria on your CV, even though you are working for a company that's well known around the world with offices in literally every continent.

The minimum you should accept is the same grade level you were in Nigeria and your take home pay (when converted) must be higher than your take home pay in Nigeria.

I also disagree with those who say Big 4 don't pay well. Salary negotiation skills is key with these companies and you must bring something niche/unique to the table.

Finally, don't just focus on the Big 4. Financial services is such a huge employment of labour in the UK - redirect your job search to banks (big banks, challenger banks), investment companies, insurance companies and fintechs with interest in financial services (e,g. paypal, revolut)


Hi bro,

Is it possible to land a big 4 job in UK without any prior experience with big 4 in Nigeria? i am asking because i had a friend who got an invite for advisory services with KPMG but skeptical about his chances owing to the aforementioned reason. The guy is a chartered accountant and an assistant manager with a coy in Nigeria.

hello house...I have some questions that have been bothering me...
1. is it a must to write a standardized test like TOEFL,SAT, GRE e.t.c. even if the school doesn't request for it? I already applied for a Uni in USA that waived IELTS and GRE even the application fee.
2. if someone doesn't need to write any test according to the school admission system...how will someone tel the Visa officer that the school doesn't request for it?

a quick response will be highly appreciated.

Pa Adeboye said some very sensitive things today...

The words he spoke are the conversation every serious Nigerian should be having right now!

Where is this nation headed?!! The future is horribly bleak for this country!

PDP messed up! But, what APC has done in just 7 years, we may never ever recover!!! The damage will reverberate for generations untold!

Where does the next president even start from?!!! Is there even a starting point?!! Is there even a headway?!!

You are on point.. I was in the church and Baba said alot of things that a good government will swing in to action and tackle.... He asked some questions that only God can reveal

zedegit:
Please don't get it wrong. I believe there should be 2 offerings: normal church offering and tithe.

Nowadays there are up to 5 offerings in church.

1 Sunday school offering
2 Testimony offering
3 Building levy offering
4 Youth offering
5 Offerings for needy
6 Tithe etc

There are strategies devised to coerse one to give cry cry cry cry cry cry
such as "stand up and raise your offering and being left on the seat while others give.

It makes me feel bad.

Lol, do you attend The Apostolic Church?

Hi everyone, my wife has been interviewing with one of the big 4 in Australia and she just got a success mail asking of her salary expectations and “if she’s coming with anyone “? I will like to seek advice from gurus before we respond, if the firm will be willing to sponsor the 2 of us or I should let her go alone while i join her later. Thanks

Go and read IFRS 10 and see where you can have less than 50% of shares and still have the controlling power
