<br />Assalam-u-alekum everyone

Now the problematic part over which I’m little confused. The industry where I worked in Pakistan is still in nascent stages therefore is probably much different than what advanced countries like Canada may have. I’m not sure if it will be easy for me to join the same or at least a similar industry in Canada. As I said earlier, I don’t have any prior experience in audit therefore I want to start off in Canada from an Audit firm. I heard that Audit firms hire fresh graduates every year and like other countries such UK they hire graduates as trainees with full job except that they are required to pass the examinations within 3-4 years time span. Assuming that I’ll not be expected to pass any papers (being a CGA member by then) I plan to pursue CFA, CPA or most probably CA from CICA (whatever appropriate) during the time with audit firm. I’ll be immensely grateful if someone having experience could advise esp. over this last part.

Thanking you in advance

Dear Ashfaque

One can do whatever he/she wants while doing a job in Audit firm in Canada. So, you can do either nothing or whatever qualification you want.

Having said that, please feel no offence but I think you have done much brainstorming and using too many assumptions about future.

Dear, one may try wherever he wants (audit firm or industry), but end of the day everyone needs bread, so starts from whatever he gets in new country. However, one can (and should) continuously strive hard for the best jobs available.

So, in my view, leave too many assumptions aside till the actual time comes. At that time, do your best, and pick-up the best available job.

Regards
