I dont know what went wrong with me. I am not called. -(

Really sorry to hear that.You said that your interview had gone really well and I am sure you were right because people don't greatly misjudge others' reactions to them.Maybe it had something to do with the number of your passed CA papers.If they were less eg 2 papers passed in Inter or something,then even with a great interview others would probably have a bit of an edge.But this is pure conjecture.Why don't you call one of your first interviewers and try to make them disclose the reason/any weaknesses so you can improve upon them for the rest of Big 4?That's what I had planned to do and would have done if faced with this situation.If you are politely insistent,they will give you some clues.Best of luck and don't lose hope.It would eventually turn out to be the best thing for you though right now it seems a big disappointment.

@ANI and NaumanThank you.I'll pray for you ANI.
@arshad15Welcome.blialazim1 is right.Also there was this guy at the 2nd interview who had been training at KPMG for the past 6 months(he hadn't applied to AFF last time because he had only 2 papers passed in Inter but had qualified all remaining 5 papers when result came)and he said that if he got selected at AFF,he'd leave KPMG even though there was a lot of work and consequently,he learned alot.It was just that,in his opinion,AFF gave more time to trainees for studies.So insha'allah you too will get into a big 4 firm.All have their own merits.

did any one get a call frm FRSH coz aparently they arnt callin candidates who hav been slected in AFF..
- saadleo - 11-08-2010
Well I also got selected and the joining date is from 22nd of Nov.. i am just really curious about my result(Module D) since the permanency of our induction is based upon that.
- saadleo - 11-08-2010
Most of us(those selected in ferguson) were called by FRSH for the 1st interview, and since most of them(including me) didn't told about the fact of being inducted in ferguson already; they recommended us for the second interview which is to be occured on Tuesday.

@BILAL AZIM
Bro are u sure that your result doesnt affects ur induction?
and yeah FRSH doesnt matter once u are already up for the ferguson, i would rather say that FRSH gave me really bad impression after i had to wait 4.5 hrs for my turn to be an interviewee.. i was called at 1245 where as my turn came about at 0500
- bilalazim1 - 11-09-2010
yeah sir ajmal kasab told ths to a candidate when we were called for doc submission and me as an acca will ha a probation period of 2 months imposed by icap before i get a contract, during tht time ill register with icap
