Same 😂

The point of taking notes for me has never been about going back to review them I take notes because it helps me pay attention in the meeting and writing the thoughts down helps reinforce what I’m hearing and helps me remember better

If you are starting as an Audit Associate some time from now with Deloitte or any of the big 4, do they expect you to have passed/completed all 4 parts by the time you start?

I’ve seen plenty of people get to Senior at a big 4 firm without the CPA so I am a bit confused in that aspect. Any helpful feedback will be very much appreciated.

I have been told not to bill for this but if I didn't have to spend time to do such things my billable hours would be higher
