    YAY we're on the news

    Accounting Cadetship 2008

    no, i don't think so. one of the current cadets at PwC said it was 7.5 hours because it's essentially one whole working day off. according to the ICAA all accounting firms must have received the contracts by July 25th. so that gives about two weeks to contemplate it, sign it then post it back...

    Accounting Cadetship 2008

    yeah I heard that PwC and EY both mail your contracts out to you :| I haven't received a response yet from PwC (and it probably looks like I'm not in), but just out of curiosity - if any of you could choose between EY and PwC what would you choose and why?
