Schweser. Also, assess whether the program fits your goals. It’s an extreme time commitment and it’s quite difficult. If you want to pursue public investing/research…then do it. But otherwise, you’re better off networking. Good luck!

Hi everyone,

I have got the ey hr mail stating i should provide him with aadhar card, information sheet and latest resume for a audit and assurance contract for 6 months as iam a semi qualified CA.

Here my question is should i take this opportunity. Cause since this is only for 6 months. After that, what i can do, where should I try to get the job?

Should I take it or am I making a mistake by taking this.
