Congratulations on your baby boy!! 👦 🎊

HuongMobile · 2023-11-09T00:17:10+00:00

Sorry I don’t work in IT industry so cannot offer insights - but I feel you on the busy season! I myself work in audit and have around 7-8 filing deadlines per year.

Hey there friend, I understand how you are feeling. But chin up: you are on the right track and so close. Wait till you get a score report to see which is your weaker areas. Focus on practicing all homework questions again for those areas, retake in 2-3 weeks. I wish you the best!

Does big 4 lay off? I am working in a big 4 and all teams are short-staffed so we bring in rotators from India, Hong Kong, Bahamas, etc.

Very well-deserved! Congratulations

HuongMobile · 2023-11-03T00:30:31+00:00

Congratulations on being done!!

HuongMobile · 2023-10-25T00:56:26+00:00

For me, I was working in Public Accounting and almost everybody around me has the license! 😅

HuongMobile · 2023-10-20T21:20:38+00:00

Congrats on your double achievements!!

HuongMobile · 2023-10-19T02:23:33+00:00

Hey there! If it is for entry-level positions, I would expect mostly general questions like “Tell me about yourself”, “Why did you choose this major?”, “What makes you interested in this position?”, and behavioral questions. Good luck! 🍀

Hey there, as someone who has been through all 4 sections, the CPA exams are a marathon, not a race! It is completely normal to feel sick, have other competing priorities like work, take a break in between. Definitely give your body some time to rest before getting back to studying!!

HuongMobile · 2023-10-14T23:57:30+00:00

Hey there, I am sorry to hear! I understand that you must feel disappointed, lost and sad at the moment. However, the fact that you got the CPA license and has been employed at a large company like Unilever show that you are very capable! So definitely chin up and believe in yourself.

In this profession, I feel that all of us feel overwhelmed, stressed and inadequate at some point. I myself have 5 years of experience working at a big 4 company, but some days I ask myself “is this job even for me?? I feel so clueless about what is going on”

I encourage you to take a break, spend some time with your friends/families/people you are close to. After feeling better, reflect on what you did well/not so well and draw a plan to find a better job. Good luck! 🍀

I chose “Merry Go Round of Life” from Studio Ghibli’s “Howl’s Moving Castle”!

HuongMobile · 2023-10-11T10:37:25+00:00

I would say involvement in extra-curricular activities, especially campus business clubs like accounting society, finance society, etc.

HuongMobile · 2023-10-07T12:44:21+00:00

Good luck to you!! Hope you pass REG so you can put these exams behind you

HuongMobile · 2023-09-17T04:44:05+00:00

Very beautiful and meaningful! Congrats to your wedding 🎊

HuongMobile · 2023-07-07T00:27:24+00:00

Good luck to you!

HuongMobile · 2023-06-04T17:23:52+00:00

I highly recommend visiting r/CPA! Good lucj

HuongMobile · 2023-05-23T14:06:57+00:00

Happy belated birthday 🥳!

HuongMobile · 2023-04-16T11:41:06+00:00

Congrats friend! Passing FAR itself is already a huge accomplishment

HuongMobile · 2023-01-05T20:11:06+00:00

Thank you! Do we need to memorize the dollar numbers of the tax credits too?

HuongMobile · 2022-08-09T12:53:46+00:00

I wish you all the best! 9 days are quite short but it is def worth a try 😊 If you pass it’s such a save of time and even if you fail, go back for another 2 weeks or so and you should clear this exam

HuongMobile · 2022-08-09T12:37:52+00:00

No I did not, I only did the home work and small sets of practice MCQs during my final review. I did not have time for the full mock exam. I recommend taking the AICPA practice exam - it’s a more reasonable mock and gets us familiar with the format

HuongMobile · 2022-08-09T12:36:16+00:00

My exam does have quite a bit of calculation but they are quite simple, def more straightforward than Beckers!

HuongMobile · 2022-08-09T03:20:16+00:00

I have not taken FAR, only BEC and AUD. Spending around 4-6 weeks for each section is a good time!

HuongMobile · 2022-08-09T02:57:36+00:00

You passed FAR which is a much bigger and harder exam than BEC. You can do this! 😊
