Dear Friends

Iam an PCC Student, after so many attempts i could not clear PCC. In this case, on completion of my 3.5 years of CA Articleship in 2010, i changed the line and wrote "CISA" (US Certification for IT Audit) twice and failed both times in margin marks. From completion of my Articleship til date i worked in couple of audit firms for 3 months and 4 months each. Currently, as on date i have total experience of 4 years & 3 months in audit field and 16 months gap for which i was unemployed. In that 16 months i was at studying for CISA and CA exams wrote couple of attempts each and lost unfortunately. Now iam Searching for a Job, I Know it wont sound good to the employers, if i state that i have studied for exams but the result is Fail in that 16 months period.

My query is : How can i account this gap of 16 months period in my resume to get a better job offers?


Should i get some dummy experience certificate to fill this gap? if so what are its complications in future?

Thanks in advance for ur replies
