I always keep record of every job application so that I can follow up with the employers. According to me follow up is a good strategy to stands out of the crowd. Constant and Consistent effort is the key to success. My fellow students and friends please don't loose your heart and keep on trying. One day you will get the reward of your efforts. One particular suggestions for the trainees is that always prepare yourself for the interview.Thank you once again for the help provided by Premier Accounting Team particularly Selina, Coco and all others who work there.

Hi Coco,
+ M4 S" ?! p7 L9 MHow are you recently? I got the offer for the assistant accountant role finally, I will start it very soon and I would like to refer my first position to your trainees.7 u$ E% h2 o+ p$ `
I would like to thank you again for the reference and the training and it is very helpful.
/ pB) }+ j1 O. ~My current position will be vacant and My boss asked me recommend a person. So I am wondering, whether you have any trainer to recommend. It is a part time job at present, 2 days (Mondays and Wednesday) per week. It is possible to be a potential full time job.

The job is envolved in payroll, AP/AR, BAS and IAS so it is helpful for entry level people. 6 y: u& [2 X4 o: w
They are looking for a person who has a sound accounting background, mature, and reliable. PR is an advantage because they hope that the person can work in a long term.

I am writing to thank you and your team and give a brief introduction of my interview. It was in this afternoon and Igot the offer at the end of interview. The position is Audit Associate of a Singapore audit firm.2 A8 T2 s: [5 j# I* k8 S
6 s; k7 d% |# @Before the commencement of the interview I was asked to finish a quiz about some transaction journals. The interviewer took away my quiz paper after I finished, so when I was filling the Application Form he was reviewing my quiz paper.At the beginning of the interview, I was asked to introduce myself.Even though I practiced my self- introduction many times, I was still very nervous. In the self-introduction I emphasized my internship experience with your firm. I said that I learned how to apply accounting knowledge into real business situations during this internship and I took accruals as an example. I also mentioned that it enhanced my knowledge ofMYOB Accounting Software and Microsoft Excel.The interviewer told me he knew I did rehearsal and he would like to give me some credits.* o: n. O( [2 T. m1 q. S7 x
Then he told me I did well in the quiz and discussed the mistakes I made. Later he asked me some questions regarding Singapore Accounting Standards. Very fortunately, I started to study ACCA paper P2 (Corporate Reporting- Singapore Variance) three weeks ago so I managed to provide solutions.The interviewer pointed out that they wanted to hire a Singaporean or PR but he still arranged this interview because of my academic result in UNSW.He said he rarely gave offers straight away but he was really impressed by my performance in the interview and quiz.So he offered me this position at once.I will start work after the Singapore immigration office issued the work Consent letter to me which probably will take one week.6 ]- x+ E/ ~: e- b
