I hope ur exams ur very well.
but if you any doubt about ur result my suggestion is do not go for BIG4. becoz their work pressure is very high. and not even get a time for u to revise ur subjects.
in such case go for medium size firm you will get good exposure after u pass the ca final then go for big4.
approach is frdz, consultancy, handing over resumes thats it.

BIG4 is not the only place for exposure and work....there is lot of good CA firms all across the country...So focus on good exposure and not on Big4......Take the help from your friends for a good firm...
Think about it...All the Best

Further you have completed your articleship...so don't say in your interview that u r again interested in training...it sounds very stupid and reflects that ur vision is not clear towards your career....
As per my suggestion go for a job at a bit lower level...n do the required homework for working at ground level...slowly and steadly you'll be able to gether ur confi...and then decide accordingly....

It is a bit risky...but also consult from your parents, friends and seniors around...

a suggestion
please do not underestimate yourself
even working in small firms can make u learn those things which a Big4 article does not knw
just for instance
i also belonged to a small firm not having any big exposure
but many of mine frds belong to big 4
while attending practical classes wid them ( esp DT and IDT )
I was shocked that the minor things which a cpt student knows ( just like wat is tin, tan , wat is karvy , wat is the number of pan form , wat is SCN etc etc )
they made me knw that in BIG 4s the work is being done based on checklists
they have to work according to pre established standards
and also they have some great exposure in Internal audits or foreign taxations
but the areas which we knw are somewhere lacking in my frds who wrked in big4s
through my experiance i just want to convey that
dont let yourself brutal by the wat people say
be your own judge
try to learn everything of something instead of something of everything
even filing a pan form/returns is an experiance
go ahead and update your knowledge wid business newspapers/ forums like caclub etc
after passing ca if u feel u want to learn more about any particular area or u want to go in any area for profession which u could not understand during ur present articleship like transfer pricing
then u can join big4s as they have great exposure in it
but do not try to extend your articleship period to say u have not learnt anything during articleship in small firms ..
take care

but the only job i hate is prepapring schedules and fin sattements and answering queries of an auditor----in industry i see many CA 's doing accounts job usulayy done by bcom person --in name of finance dept.
so just tell me if there is vacancy and furthur advice..
