Hi all,

Summer is on the way back and flowers start to bloom all over the place. Hope you all enjoy these warm days.

Please join me in congratulating Michelle who successfully secured an accounts payable officer role in a large company located in Brisbane CBD. Amazingly, she is such an efficient job seeker as she only finished the first two sessions, accounts receivable and accounts payable. And she is in the same situation as you all who haven’t got much accounting related experience except the one in Vision Accounting.

Hope her story can inspire you all. We do have job opportunities out there, and we do have trainees who can be successful in job searching. So if you are experiencing difficulties, please do not give up and collect all your energy. You will get to your goal as well if you work hard.

If you have been through interviews but haven’t got any success, please feel free to send me email or call me. We can try to work out the reason together and improve your interview skills.

Wish Michelle all the best for her new career.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

Cheers,

Rachel Hao

Hi all,

Hope you all had a good weekend.

I am sending some good news in relation to previous trainees who attended my course. Hope their stories can inspire you in this busy time.

Leah has successfully secured an entry level accounting role in a logistic company. Her hard work in searching for a position has finally paid off. Job searching is not an easy task to do, and it might be harder for some people and easier for others. As an example Leah almost secured an AP position, but the employer gave her up at the last minute. She is such a humble girl. She didn’t complain but treated the rejection as valuable experience, learned from her mistakes, improved herself and carried on. Finally, she steps into an accounting role. People asked me how to get a job. I would say you need to be a fighter, and most importantly, a skilled fighter.

I caught up with a couple our previous trainees recently. I am so glad they are doing so well. Yong got a role in a listed company in December last year. Now he has been promoted as an internal tax accountant. He was highly recommended to this role by his previous manager. The manager recommended Yong because of his outstanding performance and work attitude. If you are not prepared very well, the opportunities will pass you by.

Next, I am truly proud of all girls, Sherry, Crystal, Selena, JJ, Lily and Michelle. They are doing really well in their current roles. Sherry’s skills are up another level now. Because of her outstanding performance, she successfully negotiated her pay rise to the expected level.  Crystal coped with a difficult work colleague. But after a couple of rounds of “contest”, she controlled the whole situation. Selena is shaking off entry level responsibilities. So she starts to access more Assistant Accountant tasks. JJ works really hard and her employer pay her back by good salary. Lily was an experienced accountant in China. As she never studied in Australia, she has spent more time on upgrading her knowledge and skills. But now she is working as an accountant.  Michelle got the role as a contractor, but the employer is considering transferring her as a full timer.

If you are still struggling in job searching process, please be positive. Focus on the progress you are making. Please feel free to contact me, if you have any questions.

Cheers,

Hi all,

Hope you all had a nice Christmas.

Thank you for your support for the past years. And we are glad that so many trainees secured their fist accounting jobs in 2013.

Recently, Arash has secured an assistant accountant role in a logistic company. He got this role through a recruitment agent. After two rounds of fact-to-face interviews with managers of the company, he finally was chosen to be the one. He has started to work in the company in last week.

The reference check for him was general process. But I highlighted three features of Arash as he has a big heart, humble and will not reluctant to take over responsibilities. That’s how Arash impress me and what employers appreciate for.

Please join me in congratulating him and wish him all the best for his career.

Please also find an interview feedback below from Teresa. She was one of our most competent trainees. She has been working in an accounting firm for a while. Now she considers changing job to further her career. Please send many thanks to her for her generous sharing.

What’s your New Year resolution? Hope those successful experiences from other trainees can inspire you for your job searching.

Wish you all happy New Year!

Regards,

Hi Rachel,

Thanks for providing reference for my interview  two
weeks ago. Sorry for the late reply. Although I failed the interview, I
still want to email you to express my appreciation and maybe give some
hints for other like-minded people.

The firm is a fast growing southern firm with around 50 people in
total and three offices in Brisbane. The role I interviewed for is
intermediate accountant in business service sector. Technically
speaking, I would say normally intermediate accountant role entails more
than 2 years working experience. The interview is arranged via the
recruitment agency.  I was interview with a direct manager and a
director from a small team within the firm. (During the interview I
learned that this small team was actually merged by the firm around 5
months ago and that’s why they are in dire need of hiring new staff
even before xmas.)

Generally, no technical questions have been asked throughout the
interview. The interviewer focuses more on the work flow of my current
firm as well as the client profile, like the turnover of the clients,
the particular industry they are, the charge-out rate and productivity
rate and whether I finish a job from scratch all the way to being
wrapped up. Examples of previous jobs and clients are certainly helpful
during the interview to make it more convincing. On top of that, some
behavioral questions have also been mentioned: like what’s your
strengths and weaknesses, how do you cope with pressure, what’s the
reason for your job hunting, what you are looking for your next firm,
have you encountered any difficulties at work and how you deal with it,
why do you choose business services in the first place, etc.

The whole interview went for like 45 minutes, which I reckon should
qualify for what a standard interview should be.

Hope that helps.

Thanks.



Best Regards,
Teresa

Dear all,

Hope you all enjoy your weekend.

I haven’t been update interview status of our interns for a while not because we didn’t have any good news, only as I didn't have time to do it until now. And some interns were worried there is no good news which means there are no jobs for themselves in the market. LOL… please relax, here we are.

Please join me in congratulating Grace secured a tax accountant role in a public practice firm.  People in the recent batch might still remember this lovely, humble and hard working young lady. Yes, she did successfully secure a job exactly after she finished the training part. She even enrolled the interview course and hasn’t got time to start yet. But she doesn’t need it anymore. I would give her credit about her effort on studying the course hardly. She did all her homework very well. She had a good understanding with all contents we have gone through in the class. She could bring up good questions in the class which showed she was on the right track. I never believe luckiness. Only good preparation is the key to success.

For people who are going through interviews, if you failed, please do not hesitate to contact me as well. I would like to use my own experience and also experience from all other interns to help you find out the reasons and fix them up.

Also, I caught up with a couple of previous interns who are working in accounting area. One of them is in searching job again as the business of his previous employer clasped. However, good news is his skills are much stronger. He is only targeting at AA position now and has got many interviews. He was 1 of 2 finalists of a decent position but they chose the other candidates as the other one has done more subjects of CPA. It rings the alarm for people who questioned the necessity of taking CPA. CPA qualification is important in accounting industry for sure. After you are a full member, you are called a qualified accountant. Please check up job requirements of financial accountant, senior accountant, CFO, or even entry levels role in large company, do they mention “qualified accountant” or “studying towards CPA”? They are referring to CPA qualification, not your master degree. If you have time, even though you haven’t got job yet, please consider taking one or two subjects. Just in case, the day when you have a job, you don’t have time to do it anymore. We will get busier and busier with family.

One previous intern visited me the other day in his lunch break. Again, proved one thing, Excel skills are important. He doesn’t need to do data entry at all, only prepare reports. He didn’t really finished all training sessions for some reasons. Actually, in AA level, we would explain accrual, P&L analysis, cost analysis and budget. In terms of spread sheet format, it might not be exactly same as what you do in future, but you will get better understanding when you are assigned to it. Some trainees think AA level is too much for them at this moment. But as a degree holder, you should put higher expectation to yourself. When you need it, there might be no one providing you detailed training anymore. You never know what skills you need. Again, proved one thing, preparation!

Thank you for your time reading this long email. Hope you feel encouraged by those stories.

Cheers and talk soon,



Rachel Hao

Hello all,

Good news from one of our trainees.

Please join me in congratulating Jessica secured a bookkeeper role in a mining company. Even her title is bookkeeper, but she needs to do all month end journals and financial reports. It will be a good start for her career.

In the reference check, the employer asked about how her organization and time management skills are; and required me to give an example to show her strength. She has solid technical skills first of all. Most importantly, she knows exactly what needs to be done to secure a job! You will find the answers through her email below.

Wish her all the best and finger cross for all our trainees.

Regards,

Rachel Hao

Hi, Rachel,

I would like to share the good news with you that I have secured the position and got their offer, yay~~~starting from next Monday. :)

The annual salary is as what I "expected" plus super. Anyway, I'm quite happy to secure the job, even as a bookkeeper. I believe I will lay a solid foundation here for the next level as an Assistant Accountant. Besides, I recon this is a good opportunity to access to the mining industry and have an in-depth learning and thorough understanding.

Big thank you for your continuous encouragement by sharing other intern's successful story, which really  can build up our confidence, shed a light for us who are still struggling in job hunting.  

I don't have much to share to others about my interview experience because I don't have any, and I have to say my interview is a "miracle". However, I did prepared my resume, cover letter, degree certificate, previous employment certificate together with Griffith Academic Excellence Award for this interview and labeled each document with stickers to make it presentable. If you say you have a strong attention to details on your resume then this is the opportunity to prove it to make yourself stand out. Another point I would like to share is even though I didn't send many resumes, 20-30 up to now, however, I tailored my resume and cover letter for each application to match their requirements, which is bit time-consuming however it makes you the right person they are looking for.

Last but not least, it's really good to have Rachel as a trainer, mentor, adviser as well as a friend, who always give you a hand when you need. Thank you Rachel, I really appreciate.

Yes, I was thinking to ask you if you have time for a catch up with Lin together. This weekend I still have to do the part time job, what about the next weekend?

See you and catch you soon!

Cheers,

Jessica Gu
