Any one here work at EY in the FAAS/TAAG group? Thinking about joining from Deloitte audit and interested in hearing more about the actual day to day work.

I do, there’s a lot of different stuff but the bread and butter of the group is financial reporting advisory like drafting financial statements. TAAG focuses more on technical accounting (obviously from the name) and is more research oriented

I am general FAAS, did proforma financial statements and normal financial statement building. Currently working on controls processes. ARA and controllership are pretty much FAAS and rev Rec was a big part of the practice for awhile from what I heard but it’s not nearly as big now that asc 606 has been out awhile

like

Have you tried transfering to ARA or Controllership?

I was going to bring it up to my coach but not sure if it’s difficult given the staffing situation

like

I’m actually going to talk to mine about it at our next check in. I feel like it’s possible to get exposure to some of that stuff in audit but it’s rare and hard to be flexible due to staffing.

Anyone have tips for asking for more than you think you're worth? Because of the employment market there's a job which is about a 20K jump for me but it's been open for a year so I'm pretty sure I can get something additional out of them. Would it be appropriate to ask for 10K above the jump? Or should I just count my blessings and leverage my ability to underprice other applicants

Hi Fishes! I have been trying to immigrate to Australia since 2018 with their permanent residence program and applying for jobs at Australian companies from the past 6 months. Both have not been successful and I am really depressed. I am a front end developer with over 9 years of experience. If anyone could provide any tips or contacts of recruitment agencies or consultants who could make my dream of immigration to Australia come true, then I would be really grateful. Thanks 🙏🏼
