Zain, do you mean join a Big 4 outside Pakistan, if that is your question the answer would be 'highly difficult' unless you can arrange a work permit, find a contract and convince that you to date qualifications are equivalent to a UK Degree. (I am talking about UK here).

In Pakistan, ofcourse you can; that is when Big 4 hire,, people who have passed their CA inter (or whatever it is called these days)
