Hey dude!
Professionally SECONDMENTS mean that the professional services organization like PWC,KPMG send you to other offices either in same country or MOSTLY in some other country.Mostly in Pakistan, this thing is associated with BIG4 but in western world some TOP10 firms also adopt this process.
In Lahore,FRSH,KPMG and MYASCO r confirmed secondments opportunities for BRIGHT and TALENTED students while BRIGHT and TALENTED is defined by firm partners ut hard-working trainees can also benefit. ACCA-AFFILIATESS have higher chances of being selected for secondments because they hold a COMPLETE/FULL PROFESSIONAL QUALIFICATION and due to ACCA being the largest accountancy body in the world.
Secondees can expect to earn more money while on secondments and sometimes they also get job offers from foreign clients.
