Geography - China, US, Middle East anything but Australia (which you definitely must know about). Look at the deals, issues and transactions affecting that market. Function - IT, Resources, Retail, Consumer Goods. Look at the deals, issues and transactions affecting that industry globally...

See what I've said above. The same applies to you. Also further point to add to my list from the top, - Network. Find someone on the inside who you can ask questions and who'll pass on your application to HR. It's that much more meaningful when you have a VP behind you or even a very popular...

1.) Try and transfer into Comm/Law If not possible, that's still ok. The following still apply. - Get a HD average for Commerce and IS (and all Finance subjects must be HD) - Get involved in extra cirriculars e.g. clubs (try and get and office position - Read the Economist, WSJ, ASWJ...

Then you'd be wanting to do a more theoretical Masters by Research. From what I've gathered, the courses you have been looking at are by coursework - they're completey different things (one you can do on HECs, the other you you pay an arm and leg for) I'd be inclined to think that you...

That's either the dumbest thing I've heard or you're one big fat liar. Any course you do is always about the career first. Why else do you bother paying $20,000 for a degree when you can get the same knowledge for $10.00 worth of library fines??? (Watch Good Will Hunting) Better yet give me...

Commercial Banks (ANZ, CBA, NAB, Westpac) make money by taking monetary deposits and lending out that money at a higher rate. Not hard to imagine when you consider most deposit accounts only provide you with 1% interest (excluding them new fancy ING 5% internet accounts) while loans these day...

To the original poster, I say go to where your gut tells you to go. You're young, have plenty of opportunities ahead of you as well as the luxury of time to rectify whatever mistakes you make as a youth in your journey towards meaningful employment. I have had some experience with the whole...

I've got a question for all the ladies out there. It's the million dollar question. Why do you play mind games? i.e. Why do you never say something straight out but encrypt it in all these riddles and expect men to instantly decode it?

1. I'm a guy wouldn't know. 2. Yep. And it's safer :D 3. Generally yes. 4. Don't know about the $40 bucks, sounds a bit too cheap. Have a quick search on virginblue.com Guess pricing depends on time, day, season etc 5. No there's plenty to do on campus.Social Clubs, Cafes & Restaurants on...

First Marketing Class I had this semester Lecturer: So what you all think marketing is? Student: Stupid people using big words to sound smart The whole room laughed their assess off. Lecturer wasnt too impressed but...

I didn't get any for ib. And from speaking with my freinds it didnt seem like they did either. Having said that, you never know! but my friend who went for an ops role had behavioural questions.

Knowing how the system works (i.e. hub ans spokes) helps you frame an effective answer. Short of that, make some assumptions. It was just a math question I suspect, i wasn't fazed by it.

From my personal experiences and what I remember Mac Bank (Melb) - What did you do at EY(corp fin) ....I did summer there - How do you value a company (i think i was one of a few who got asked this becuase of my previous summer in corp fin) - What transactions have you been following -...

Get an internship at a top 4 doing audit. Shouldnt be too hard. Then you'll see what audit is really like. Audit is completely different to what you learn at uni. The stuff you learn at uni is actually quite fun, and even I find it interesting. Imagine sitting in a little room all day long...

Nah I ended up interning with EY - TAS div. Doing due diligence stuff.
