Congratulations on Shraddhas Finance Analyst Position with a Big 4 Bank - Platinum Accounting (CPA Firm) Dear all, Please join me in congratulating Shraddha in successfully securing a role as a Finance Analyst in one of the big 4 banks! She is one of our latest interns successful in securing her first professional role in the local Accounting & Finance industry in Australia. Shraddha had prior overseas experience in similar roles for 5-7 years but as a migrant, it was really hard for her to kick start her local career here. After a few months of job hunting without receiving any feedback from the market, she joined our accounting internship in July, and it only took her 2 months of systematic training and internship experience to build her local experience in all the tax compliance and month end reporting tasks. Internship experience with us is the only local experience she had in Australia. She already had some financial analysis and wealth management experience before from overseas. Her new role requires her to analyse company accounts and assist in restructuring internal controls for the finance department. With our internship, she was able to build her local technical skills and seamlessly transition back into the accounting and finance industry locally. It is really important to invest in yourself technically and be job ready when the opportunity comes knocking! Shraddha really gained a lot of confidence from the intern experience she gained as well as support from our senior partners’ interview guidance. She has been kind enough to provide us some feedback below as to how her interview process went and what her preparation was like. Hopefully, this will provide you some guidance for your future job hunting process. If you have any queries or require our assistance with your career path locally, please do not hesitate to contact us. --------------------------------------------------------- From: shraddha n [mailto:au*****@gmail] Sent: Sunday, *******1:37 PM To: Humam Siddiqi Subject: Re: Request to suspend my training Hi Humam, Hope you are doing well. Sorry for the delayed response. I am glad to inform you that I secured an Analyst role in one of the Australias premier bank. I sincerely thank the team at Platinum for imbibing the essential skills. Few tips for job seekers - 1. Read the job description carefully before applying for the role. Understand what does the potential employer exactly wants from you. 2. If your skill sets match with the job requirements, ONLY then apply for the job. Please do not apply for a large number of jobs, if they are not relevant to your experience and/or skills. 3. Make sure you have all your work experience, achievements and qualifications noted on your resume. Your resume should resemble YOU as a person. 4. Before attending the interview, work on the SWOT analysis. Define what your strengths (4-5) are with some good examples. Nobody can ever be perfect, so, dont feel shy of putting down your weaknesses (1-3). You may even want to tell them how you are working at improving your weaknesses. 5. Day before the interview, read about the organization and try and learn more about the person interviewing you. Google, LinkedIn are always our trusted friends, arent they!! 6. Demonstrate some real work related good examples to prove your points as this adds value to what you are talking. 7. Lastly, be prepared to ask some good questions to the interviewer (1-2). I would like to thank Jeff for coming down to Melbourne and offering a 3 days intensive training. Thank you. Regards, Shraddha ------------------ Platinum Accounting Team platinumaccg.au
