1. Asset Management: you could work with one of our many global pooled
investment clients, including hedge funds, private equity funds and mutual
funds
2. Banking & Capital Markets: you may work with some of the world’s largest
banking institutions, regional and community banks, broker-dealers, or
other market participants
3. Insurance: you might work with life/health insurers, property/casualty
insurers, reinsurers, brokers or managed care organizations |

/senior/staff, but now it is gone. I would say 1 is the best choice,
speaking of free lunch/dinner during busy seasons...
btw, which office is that? nyc or chicago? |

发帖数: 1867 | 5 SEC reporting is very tedious and boring, and because of the strict
reporting deadline, it will require a lot of late nights at each quarter-end
/year-end. Think twice before you go for it.
Asset management/PE/Hedge is a good option. After a couple of years
experience, you will easily switch from public firm to industry, working as
fund accountant or fund administrator. |

nyc. EM你也是吗？你说上班的时间早晚有区别吗？sec忙季下，是不是9月末很忙呢？
另外，ey不审lehman的asset management吗？EY asset management现在的客户好像都
很小。不知道这个担心是否多余。

发帖数: 34 | 7 magicpiggy MM谢谢你！你说的很有道理。你是financial services 的auditor吗？
我的会计老师（牛人）吓唬我说asset management特别难，他用“毕生心血”搞这个研
究。我一共就学过一门devivatives的课，真怕才上班就掉队。
而且我以后想回国来着。不知道asset management能派上多大用场，而且貌似ey这块的
客户都好小。。。banking/captial好像在国内适用范围大些？

发帖数: 1311 | 9 aren't asset management shops typically smaller relative to those public
companies? i guess since a lot of the PE/HF don't want to register with the
SEC?
going back home wise, i actually think it's better to do manufacturing
clients since you need to be there to audit manufacturing companies;
financial service wise (PE/VC/HF), i don't see why they have to have someone
in China to do their book for GAAP; they can always just hire someone in
the US as their CFO or controller then have the US audit |

发帖数: 209 | 10 没有，我觉得insurance蛮好。要是我是你，我会选2或3。PE/VC行业中大部分的客户都
很小，小客户从会计的角度来说并不是特别难。想去PE/VC作Accountant一般并不需要
你以前做过。
相反，bank和insurance里面专业的东西就多的多了，你积攒的经验可能也更有用。

发帖数: 1867 | 12 Blackstone, BlackRock,KKR这些都是大的PE,一点也不小....
很多大的bank也有自己的PE funds,比如JP Morgan,Insurance也有自己的PE,比如AIG...
PE/VC的fund accounting和一般的accounting不太一样,manufacturing accounting的
经验也不applicable,当然accounting basic rule/principle还是差不多的.所以不能
说"想去PE/VC作Accountant一般并不需要你以前做过。"
如果去banking/insurance,大部分都是SEC reporting,做过SEC reporting的都知道10K
,10Q有多麻烦,多tedious,很多都是cosmetic/wording change.

发帖数: 1311 | 13 blackstone, kkr. blackrock貌似都是DT client...
PE/VC 就做3个area.比较tricky啦
Investment valuation (2nd year sr type work)
Equity allocation (2nd year work)
Mgmt fee
不过我也agree不做过 还真不一定知道what's going on.
没多technical啦...做SEC report起码是public client啊。 |

发帖数: 209 | 14 你说的那几个都是特例，绝大多数的很小，楼主未必能分到大的组里，我有一个客户就
是个小PE，觉得accounting还是比较简单的。而且里面坐accounting的不少以前都没有
PE的经验。
