Big 4 Ready Resume - Presentation Over Content

A good resume is a ticket into the early stages of the Big 4 hiring process. I receive a similar question quite frequently that goes a little something like this: “I am only a junior in college and I don’t have any accounting job experience, will this hurt my changes of working for the Big 4?” The simple answer is ‘No.’ However, this is only the case if you know how to present your non-accounting experience in the best way. Let’s explore…

There is more to working for the Big 4 than simply crunching numbers and solving accounting problems. In fact, this is not even the most important facet of the job. Because of this, you can take your non-accounting experience and apply the lessons learned to a career in Big 4 accounting. For example, a huge part of public accounting is client interaction. New hires, seniors, managers and partners all spend an exorbitant amount of time dealing directly with the audit/tax clients. As a new hire, you are representing a firm with 100+ years of history. While the reputation of Deloitte or PwC, for example, is well known, the client will base most of his/her impression of the firm on the interactions with YOU! Therefore, knowing how to present yourself and your firm in the best light is imperative. Here’s an example.

Joe Student is worried because he does not have any accounting experience. He is a college student and has worked during the summer as a waiter at a local restaurant. Joe could say “I was just a waiter” and not get noticed by the Big 4. Or, he could say this:

“I have been a waiter the past two summers and it has taught me a tremendous amount about client interaction. Each day I remember that I am representing the restaurant to the customers. Often times, the customers’ interaction with me will be the sole basis for how they view the restaurant. If I deliver an A+ job as their waiter, chances are they will come back again. Each customer could be a potential life-long repeat customer. This means that I play a significant role in the long-term profits of the restaurant.”

Why this works:

Just because Joe doesn’t have accounting work experience does not mean he has not already learned a key part of working for a Big 4. Big 4 accountants spend 99% of their time dealing directly with their clients. As was the case for Joe and Blue Crab Seafood Shack, when Joe works for one of the Big 4 he will be the face of the firm to many of the clients he interacts with. This is where knowing what the Big 4 are looking for in candidates is critical.

Tamiflu 45mg 10 caps. $83.75 What is Tamiflu? Tamiflu is an antiviral medication that blocks the actions of influenza virus types A and B in the body. Tamiflu is used to treat flu symptoms caused by influenza virus in patients who have had symptoms for less than 2 days. Tamiflu may also be given to prevent influenza in people who may be exposed but do not yet have symptoms. Important information about Tamiflu Tamiflu is used to treat flu symptoms caused by influenza virus in patients who have had symptoms for less than 2 days. Tamiflu may also be given to prevent influenza in people who may be exposed but do not yet have symptoms. Oseltamivir will not treat the common cold. The influenza virus is often mistaken for a common cold; however there are clear differences between the two. The common cold is a much less serious illness, taking a few days for symptoms to progress. The flu symptoms usually appear and progress very rapidly, leaving its hosts unable to work or function to the best of their ability for up to a week. In rare cases the flu can be fatal, and it is particularly dangerous to the very young, old and those with existing health complications. How should you as an individual react to influenza? Vaccination is only a possibility in the case of influenza, but you have to realize that you always have to rely on last years choice of viral components. There is never a guarantee the vaccine protects against the most recent viral mutant that is causing this years infections. For the other infections like SARS (with a death rate of 10%) and chickenpox no vaccine exists and virologists worry that a combination between SARS or chickenpox viral material with influenza virus will result in an uncontrollable epidemic outbreak as happened in 1918. In that case only an anti-viral like Tamiflu can help you. But, in case of a rapidly spreading epidemic your chance of getting in time any anti viral medication at all will be nil. Therefore, if you are traveling a lot or live in a big city you are at risk and would be well advised to stock some Tamiflu, just in case. Think also of your family and the people in your company. In this matter of life or death somebody must take responsibility. You can do it now! Tamiflu is made by Roche Germany and comes as a capsule to take by mouth, in a package of 10 capsules containing 75 mg of the anti-viral oseltamivir. The product is registered for the European Union under # EU/1/02/222/001. Tamiflu can either be used as a prophylactic to prevent an infection by taking 1 capsule a day or to recover from an infection by taking 1 capsule twice a day for 5 days. Tamiflu may be combined with influenza vaccination. Tamiflu 75 mg 10 caps.
