Hai friends I came to know that lots of students who applied for campus didnot get shortlisted at all. Is this true? In case it is true then a question arises. Is CA losing its glamour? Wont we be treated special anymore ???? Will we find it extremely difficult to get a placement?????????? That means our position will not be much different that a Graduate's position Desperate for a placement.

may be yes!

becoz the presentation skills of MBA graduates is far better than CAs but this is not relavent in situations where there is a Statutory requirement of CAs.

See, ICAI is governed by ppl from practise background and many in their late 40s. You can t expect them to market us properly. What we can do is get the degree and find our skills and market us properly for that appropriate job

When the population increases it is obvious that there shall be a scarcity of resources on earth itself ....and what to say about a profession..the strongest animal in the forest will only survive is a old statement but now the one which adapts to the changing situations and environment will only survive for longer...believe in ur skill knowledge wisdom parents and god..ull definitely get it...i think even though campus placement is not good but recruitment is taking place well on other grounds ..personally we cannot find more CA s unemployed for more days...they will get it anywhere..once the power and talent of a CA becomes measurable....corporates will rush towards chartered accountants.

I agree with you Shiva. ICAI should also think about offering live practical projects to CA students, just like projects offered to B School MBA Students. The present system of persuing Artcileship is not at all sufficient as it lack standards. Only few students are able to get good exposure.
