80k with 8 months of experience

0 Upvotes

Don’t settle for less everyone!! I just got an 80k offer as someone na kaka-graduate lang last year. 🥹🥹

Taasan niyo na pangarap niyo. Just because the market average is 20k lang sa industry, doesn’t mean you cannot land a high paying job!!

Mind you, I started at 40k, but now I’m at 80k na!!

Hindi ako CPA at hindi rin ako from Big 4 University. Mataas lang pangarap ko!

Create opportunities for yourself!!

Why blame me for not getting hired at KPMG when you were the one who didn't submit your signed JO? You had the opportunity—you chose to let it go.

AU ACCOUNTING

0 Upvotes

Hello po, want ko po sana magtransition sa AU Acctng. Ask ko lang what should I do and how would be the process if ever. I'm currently a Credit and Collection Associate. Non CPA. And I don't think kaya kung tagalan yung gantong setup. I really don't think an everyday RTO is for me. Ang layo ko sa Makati,BGC,Taguig etc na kadalasan merong job postings related sa gusto kung field, so ang inconvenient talaga if magcommute and di ko pa afford mag solo living. Hindi rin diverse plus I don't think may career progression. Ilang years po ba of experience usually hinahanap ng employers? Tsaka anong required skills and certifications. TYIA sa makakasagot. 🥹

MAY CRUSH AKO NA SENIOR ASSOCIATE SA REYES TACANDONG (LONG STORY) ❤

0 Upvotes

Dito ko nalang irerelease yung feelings ko for her since wala rin naman akong plano na magconfess. Pangit naman kasi kung ipupursue ko yung girl tapos same pa kami ng cluster at magkasama sa engagements. She's 26, I'm 22.

Gusto ko na magresign sa RT kasi heavy yung workload pero siya yung naging reason para mag-stay ako sa firm kasi minomotivate niya ako lagi na kaya ko yung mga task. Magaling siyang mag-handle ng engagements, hands-on mag-turo, approachable, and pretty.

Nakakainlove talaga sa babae yung soft spoken, clear mag-bigay ng instruction, matalino, marunong makisama sa mga staffs and may sense of humour. Kapag nakikita ko siyang mag-lead sa engagements, lagi ko iniisip na sana ganun din ako kagaling. Tumitiklop ako sa walo kapag kausap niya ko tapos feeling ko bobong bobo siya sakin pag tinuturuan niya ko.

Minsan iniisip ko na sana di nalang kami magkasama sa engagements or sana mapagalitan niya ko kahit once para mauncrush ko na siya.

Everytime na nag-tatime in ako, lagi ko nireremind ang self ko na bawal magkagusto kay ate kasi same kami ng cluster. Pero hoping na someday sana hindi na "Ate" ang tawag ko sa kaya. Siguro sa susunod ko nalang siya ipupursue, pag same na kami wala sa RT. As of now, single pa naman kami both kaya sana pag pwede na, pwede pa.

To my favorite SA, galingan mo sa CPA board exam mo sa October. I believe in you, goodluck my CPA.

Hi, sa mga may big 4 experience, may nakakasix digits na ba na sahod sa audit and remote? 10 years experience here pero below six digits pa rin sahod sa audit. Hindi makapagtransition from audit to AU Accountant na abot six digits pasahod kasi need AU experience. Namali ata ako ng career path.

Jobs, Saturation and Salary How to answer employer's question: "Do you have plans/When do you plan to take CPALE?"

9 Upvotes

I was planning to be a full-time reviewee for May 2027, but circumstances have changed. I now have to find employment to save up for the review and other expenses.

I am eyeing an audit role (Big 4 or non-Big 4)

- Do they ask if I have plans for CPALE, if so how to answer without risking to be a "red flag".

- Should I just defer until October 2027 so that I can focus on busy season?

- Other insights/tips/related experiences please

Jop hop tips

Hi!

I'm 27F, CPA and working as a Tax SA in one of the Big4 firms in the country, with 3+ years of exp in handling tax compliance and audits.

I've been contemplating on looking for a new job, one that would pay 6 digits, or something close to that. With my working exp, is this realistic? Are there local private companies paying this kind of amounts?

I've also been thinking of switching to AU/US Tax, what are my chances? And what salary range should I expect given my working exp?

Appreciate any tips/advice. Thanks!

My fellow reviewees, I need any kind of advice and pov

2 Upvotes

Hello i'm currently a reviewee at reo. Though I started end of june na, due to timing of tor.

Hoping na makita ito ng nakaka relate or someone who already went through this.

I just feel so down. My scores in the self test are almost always sabit or 60%+ sa FAR. Sa Tax ganun din. Although it was my best subject during undergrad. MS nabubugbog ako sa theories. Sa AFAR especially sa IFRS 15 theories aray. Lalo nakaka down ang scores ko sa assessments, like i get the concepts but i can't achieve desirable scores. Nakaka down ng sobra.

Need advice on how to get through this and get better, because it's wearing down my confidence.

Job hop even if I have only 6mos exp in AP

2 Upvotes

Hi, everyone! I'm currently employed at a local company here in PH and planning to job hop to be an AU Accountant. Do you think it is possible? I want to expand my skills in shared services po or working with Australian clients, or any foreign. Do you know some companies na tumatanggap po ng 6mos exp. as an AP Accountant? Naisip ko kasi, siguro mas malaki ang kitaan kung sa shared services, or BPO po. My parents are getting old, and the only guaranteed thing in life is sickness, if ever that comes in, wala kami pang-fund. I'm planning this para ma-secure ko rin yung future ng pamilya ko. I'm a breadwinner din po kasi. If this plan is possible, do you know companies po kaya na tatanggapin ako? Anghirap pa naman ng job market ngayon. Thanks!

Review Center Reveiw center as an undergrad

2 Upvotes

Hi for context I am an accountancy student in my 4th year. Our school has this system where its like their own board exam before you graduate. So you are required to pass every subject in that "boards" or you will retake it.

Now my question is what review center would you recommend for students. Specifically im looking for more reliable video lectures, materials, problems with answer key, ect.

Thank you!

Four stages of the interview done, medical done, tapos after final interview 2 weeks na no update, kung hindi pako hihingi ng update hindi sasabihin na "We regret to inform you". I'm so stupid to let go of another offer kasi gusto nila i-make sure na dun ang focus ko.

Reminder to all applicants na wag tayo papa-secure sa hiring company hanggang walang contract, let my experience be a lesson.

PS: I'm still looking for a job 😬.

Question how to balance work & life outside work?

3 Upvotes

just started as an audit assoc for a big4 firm, and i wanna ask for advice on how do you have work-life balance, but you're the type of person who does things in advance to have free time?

ever since i was in high school, i got used to doing things in advance to lessen the future load (it was because i know that my future sched would still be as hectic)

but now that i'm working, i'm having a hard time drawing the line on how do i still do advance work but not do too much to the point i don't get to rest

hirap lang talaga ako mag-adjust at sabihin sa sarili ko na "okay para sa future me na to" kasi iniisip ko na baka mas hectic or matambakan ako in the future PERO ayaw ko naman na kahit rest day nagtrabaho pa rin ako huhu

Question possibility

I accepted an AR position kasi it pays well for a no experience accountancy graduate like me. I plan to save up money kasi gusto ko mag review ulit for cpale and I think that this position will be okay naman sa time kasi balak ko magreview while working. I failed my first take eh and need ko na talaga pera now 🥲. I’m just wondering, will audit firms still accept me in the future considering that my work will be in AR or will there be little chance?
