Interview call from Ford Rhodes, Karachi - harounkhan - 03-31-2010
My entrance test took place on Saturday 27th March. I am wondering how long does it take for them to call for an interview? Did anybody on here who appeared for the test on that particular got a call from the HR Department yet? Cheers !!!

masroorahmed, congratulations on getting the interview phone call. Can you please tell me when is your interview? Well I am also an ACCA student, and I have cleared same number of papers as yours, but I haven't got the interview call yet. Do they call all the short-listed candidates on the same day? If I don't get a call today, does it mean that I am not being short-listed? Fingers crossed that I get a call soon. And good luck for the interview Masroor.

Idiot.boy, test was of 50 marks for one-and-a-half hours. It was divided into four sections Accounting, Auditing, English and IQ. You can't prepare for such tests as you don't know what'll come up. Anyways, in accounting section, depreciation, FIFO Inventory method, Earnings per share and Deferred tax was tested. I don't remember much of the auditing section, but events occuring after the reprting date and how they would affect the auditor's report was tested. A short essay of 5 marks came up in the English section, and 10 idioms. IQ section was easy. The test in Islamabad will not be the same as the test of Karachi but it will be of the same pattern. Revise Depreciation, Deferred Tax, a few accounting ratios and study some idioms. My test took place last Saturday. Haven't recieved the interview call yet. Do you have any idea how long does it normally take for them to call? I have heard that sometimes they can make you wait. Cheers!!!

I also applied at FRSH but have heard nothing about test? Have they told you about test?
- harounkhan - 04-05-2010
Anytime bro!!! Idioms I got in the test were mumbo jumbo, graveyard shift, your guess is as good as mine, hell in a handbasket, it takes two to tango, cat out of the bag, between the rock and a place and a few others. Fortunately, I knew 6 of them. You have to use idioms in sentences. Good Luck with the test !!!!
Yaar my test took place on last Saturday, and today is Sunday. So one week to ho gaya hai. INSHALLAH, I am hopeful that I will get the interview call by tomorrow. Pray for me bro. Take Care !!!!!!!!
