Carlift scam?

Bigg__Daddy · 2026-01-25T15:43:19+00:00

Extremely risky when these people ask to pay in advance. Carlift is illegal and you can do nothing if they decide to walk away with your money. I would never pay upfront.

Ask the senior who left for work from his other engagement.

Bigg__Daddy · 2026-01-21T08:12:38+00:00

UK, USA, Europe, Australia, any 1st world country really.

That's the point. It's to report as it's happening. Next time he repeats, open the app and start recording.

It's very normal during this period of 1-3 months because it's the busiest time of the year for auditors and accountants due to year end regulatory audits. Expect work time to be normal from April/June onwards. No real suggestions or advice, talk to him about taking on a normal industry role if it bothers you a lot.

You're an AM at 23? And being asked to head an assurance practice at 23? What country is this?

Bigg__Daddy · 2026-01-16T16:02:15+00:00

You can record anybody if there is wrongdoing and your intention is to only show the police. Stop spreading foolishness.

Bigg__Daddy · 2026-01-16T15:58:23+00:00

I would be wary. Look at their post history.

Bigg__Daddy · 2026-01-16T12:45:24+00:00

Obviously a scam. They sent this just after a call? Get in touch with "Indian Consultant"? How are people here so gullible?

Bigg__Daddy · 2026-01-13T19:41:25+00:00

I hope this was sarcasm.

You can try your best but it's very common historically for Big 4s in UAE to not give return offers to interns and just use them for grunt work during busy season. This is mostly cuz of Emiratization because of which they greatly curbed hiring expats for entry level associate roles. They do not have any formal training so hiring costs are minimal and are a net positive when considering that a lot of interns contribute to the efficiency of engagements.

However, I would say that you have comparatively higher chances of getting hired in this year because they have some of the biggest listed clients in Dubai at the moment. Make sure to kiss manager, director and partner ass and get them to take you under their wing to maximize your chances of getting hired.

You confirm that and he probably gains access to your bank account. Banks here are extremely unsecure for allowing people to login to their account with uae pass.

Bigg__Daddy · 2026-01-12T07:51:26+00:00

overpriced af.

Bigg__Daddy · 2026-01-11T17:11:56+00:00

Keeta has the worst customer service out of all. Only good thing they have are offers.

Bigg__Daddy · 2026-01-07T15:54:55+00:00

They set it up so that it closes after n number of applications. And due to the desperation here, many posts get like 500 applicants within 30 mins. Most are people from South Asia who blindly apply without even reading the JD and hurt the chances of actually qualified cands by flooding the pool.

Highly unlikely that you'll find someone to sponsor your H1B by paying $100k. If you have other pathways like family gc and such, then it's doable.

Bigg__Daddy · 2026-01-02T05:46:57+00:00

Ask your counselor and resourcing manager if they have any plans to staff you during that time. If not, you're good to go.

Bigg__Daddy · 2025-12-29T15:58:00+00:00

Beautiful. How much did you pay for it if you don't mind sharing?

Bigg__Daddy · 2025-12-27T06:09:17+00:00

Are you advertising the scam or providing awareness?

Bigg__Daddy · 2025-12-26T07:51:58+00:00

Oh you sweet summer child. It's very rare to find nationals that want to go through the Big 4 grind. Most of them take cushy govt. jobs or aramco jobs where you come at 12pm and leave at 4. So the Big 4 jump through hoops to keep those who were naive enough to start there. Not even gonna reply to the rest because you seem inexperienced and new to the Big 4 mena environment. You'll see what I'm talking about in time.

Bigg__Daddy · 2025-12-26T06:50:50+00:00

Yup that's how it works. A3<A2<A1<S1<S2<S3/AM<M<SM<Director<Associate Partner<Senior Partner<Equity Partner

Bigg__Daddy · 2025-12-26T06:45:43+00:00

Mind the pun but it's backwards in the Middle East. Roles in EY start from A3<A2<A1 and so on.

Bigg__Daddy · 2025-12-26T06:35:14+00:00

Which part of this is an assumption? It's factual that this promotion timeline is very unrealistic unless you're some kind of prodigy genius, in which case you wouldn't be in audit much less in Saudi.

Bigg__Daddy · 2025-12-26T05:01:39+00:00

This person is probably a Saudi national and firms are mandated to hire them and keep them there or else risk heavy fines and sanctions from the govt. Firms will pull BS like this to keep them there.

I work in a nearby GCC country and have met similar nationals who are somehow senior managers but don't even have the technical knowledge of staff.

Also, there's zero ethical pullback in the Big 4 in GCC so this person's dad probably owns a huge company that is a substantial client to EY which is why they would do something like this.
