I have a question would love a honest answer I am ACCA student and went for a job interview. The person who was conducting interview found out I am ACCA and he was a ICAI member. Throughout the interview i felt he was looking down on me. I recently talked about this with a friend and he said generally ICAI and ICAP accounting members dont give ACCA students and important. Is this true?

Wahts ACCA and ICAI?

they are chartered accountancy bodies. ACCA is based in UK and ICAI is Indian Accountancy body

I think it comes down to to type of role. If you are applying for an Indian GAAP related role, an interviewer would prefer an Indian CA over a UK ACCA or a US CPA.

What if I am applying for a company in middle East

Looking for some advice; I've been a paralegal for about 5 years now, and the past year or so has been hard.

My resume shows a few short stays at firms, and now I'm looking at moving after six months due to issues that turned over the entire paralegal team so far except for me. How do I show employers I'm a dedicated worker after a difficult year?
