CFAB: Firms Visit

In the previous post, I posted about  Grooming Workshop  which was organised by Sun-TES to prepare students for Work-Based Learning (WBL) in October. The next step, is the Firms Visit. To give an insight to what firms visit is about is the purpose of this blog. On the 7th, 8th and 14th of July, we visited the Big 4+2 Audit Firms. (To the future CFAB-ers, the date is decided by Sun-TES, but it will be on the 5th semester, most probably after Grooming Workshop.). So, what are Big 4? Big 4 are basically the largest international professional service firms, offering audit, tax and advisory services. They are PwC, Deloitte, KPMG and EY. And why +2?

Hi!! It is the start of my fifth semester and we had a grooming workshop on this very first day. It was prepared by Sun-TES and the purpose of this workshop is to prepare students for internship. What to wear and what not to wear. So, we had Michelle Tan from Chapter One and Brand International Institute as our Image Consultant. We began our class with creating first impression. Greetings and giving compliments, with a smile, dressing, postures, eye contacts, good firm handshake can give a great impression. And later, we proceeded to the dressing part. I'll start with men's formal wear. Be prepared, there are more restrictions than you think! Men's Formal 1. Types of blazer Single-Breasted Blazer (Photo from Google) Double-Breasted Blazer (Photo from Google) Some said that double-breasted blazer is more formal than single-breasted blazer.
