shikha (CA FINAL) (25 Points)
19 July 2012Hello everyone i need your help. It was my 7th attempt of CA FINAL but i did not get through any group.
I want to continue with it but i have almost lost my hope because even if i clear in 8th attempt, than also job prospects will be very less for me.
Should i go for CFA ? or can you suggest any other course in finance which i can pursue that will increase my chances of getting a good job. I want to enter banking industry.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Shikha,
Don't be disheartened. In my view, number of attempts you took in clearing CA final affects your possibility of being shortlisted but it hardly affects what you do in an interview.
I have seen people who are rank holders in CA exam, got shortlisted but did not make it to even a single company in ICAI campus interviews. So ideally you should persue CA without being tensed about future possibility of having a job.
If you wish to go for CFA then you can go for it as it will be helpful in investment banking. additionally you may choose to appear for banking entrance examinations or directly apply some private sector bank to enter the job market. however, i personally suggest not going for any other course and concentrating more on CA Final.

Correctly.. Shikha you should not loose any hopes... At last knowledge is more important than degree.. Remember 3 Idiots picture... Kabil hone ke liye padho.. Kamyabi Jag marke peche ayege.. One of my uncles friend cleared in 14th Attempt & he is now practicing & doing better than rankers.
Wish u all the best for future..
