Hello everyone.
Hope all of you guys are doing perfectly well. Iâm back again with my questions related to Audit firms in Canada? [p]
Does anyone among you people has any experience or knowledge about the hiring process of big four firms in Canada? I have been checking their career websites. As far as my knowledge serves, all of them offer opportunities to fresh graduates to join various departments from Audit/ assurance to business advisory etc. Career websites of some firms has the option for those graduates who are residing outside Canada and have attained their degrees from other countries. Does it mean that they may be issuing work permits etc too? Any ideas! Please guide me about how a prospective candidate for Audit firms can increase his/her chances of finding an audit job with big four firms?
Thanks & regards
ASH

As toronto boy advised, it is better to be legally in Canada first
International Graduate placement in BIG firms abroad is very competitive. But you can try and try but don't put all your hopes and expectations on this
You have to apply online for a graduate trainee vacancy and fill out an application form. The form has some sections by which the recruitment team can initially judge your communication skills. So be very careful there are no grammatical or spelling mistakes. Their academic requirements are strict, make sure you fulfill them before submitting your application
Once submitted, a recruitement expert goes through the application. If you are lucky enough and have communicated in a good way, your application will be processed further
The next stage is online tests. Most probably there will be two online tests(You should surf the firms website or enquire them via email for any query regarding the tests). If successful, you will be called for an interview(you will have to go to Canada for this). Number of interviews again depend on firms
A job offer will follow the interview(s). The firm will apply on your behalf for a work permit(subject to labour market test)
There are certain things you should consider If you are lucky enough to be called up for interviews, you will have to go to Canada. If you are not selected after the interviews, all your money will go down the drain. If offered a job, the firm will have to prove to the relevant authority that a local resident was not available for a job(market labour test). This test is not needed for certain occupations like financial auditors and managers. But financial auditors and managers will be removed from the list soon. So hurry!
