"What do you think? I know there are CPA exams in every country. Why didn't you become a CPA in China? "
"It must be because of the different qualifications. It's a wise choice for you to choose a certificate with a higher qualification."
The group of men and women on the opposite side had the unique arrogance of Wall Street.
Qin Guan was a little aggrieved. He didn't want to be polite. Although he was smiling like a spring breeze, he said the most annoying words in the world.
"Oh, it's mainly because the AICPA exam is too easy. You might not know this, but it took me less than a month to prepare for the exam. My tutor, I believe that since you're all so-called talents in the economic field, I'm sure you'll be able to pass the exam.
You must have heard of Professor Martin from Columbia University. Before I left for the exam, he told me sincerely, "Qin Guan, your brain is not good enough. You can only get a certificate and become an abacus master."
"What Actuary, Registrar, Auditor, whatever I can get …"
Qin Guan said the exact opposite of what his professor had said.
Hearing this, the faces of the people on the opposite side twitched. Marsha didn't know whether to record or not in the interview record column on the computer.
Qin Guan crossed his right leg over his left one in a natural and unrestrained manner. Brushing the dust off his leg, he went on, "That makes sense. I have no work experience in China. They won't let me pass the exam."
"The US is better. It's free, democratic and equal. I got the first place in the US without a problem."
"I'm relieved. Fortunately, my Chinese classmates didn't come. Otherwise, it would be hard to explain to them if one of them was the top student in the United States today and the next day, it would be hard to explain, wouldn't it?"
What did it mean to be strong without desires? This was not a job interview at all. When he answered the questions, he was full of sarcasm and sarcasm.
In front of others, these elites clamored for the integration of the entire nation and race, but in fact, they were still deeply rooted in their bones. They were Wall Street Americans, and they discriminated against elites.
If the interviewee had been an American, they wouldn't have been able to ask such questions.
Since they were already here, they might as well have a good chat.
They had never seen such an interviewee before. Most people in the accounting profession were calm and serious. Who said that Chinese were the most modest people in the world? How did this show itself?
But you can't say that the other party gave the wrong answer. The answer was given, but it was just a little more frustrating.
"A good accountant not only needs strong professional skills, but also strong business skills. The reason why our accounting firm has grown so much is that we pay more attention to the training of our staff in many aspects."
"For us, performance is not the standard to measure an accountant. For example, our independent accountant has the ability to negotiate independently with clients."
"As for our middle management, they will have a fixed source of customers. When your ability is up to par, you can become our partner. That's something you can achieve."
"What do you think of your business skills, Mr. Qin Guan?"
Marsha was also curious. You are a good student and have a good command of professional knowledge. Let's not talk about that. We are asking about your comprehensive ability of self-promotion.
Qin Guan was amused when he saw the smiles on the faces of the six men.
As far as Qin Guan knew, a partner was the highest level of a CPA, except for the initial joint venture partner of the firm.
None of the top four firms in the United States had a Chinese partner. The highest position a Chinese could achieve was only as a senior executive. Qin Guan didn't believe that there were no other factors involved.
He calmly raised his eyelids and smiled at the other party with the most official smile. "Your business scope is divided into six categories. “
"And because accountants have different experiences, the clients they receive are also different. Your clients rely on advertising and connections to build their business."
"And the mutual recommendation of customers is your biggest source of customers."
Everyone nodded. The Chinese guy was right. He had a direct understanding of the basic structure and operation of an accounting firm.
Martha, on the other hand, was shocked. This student, who had not even graduated and had zero work experience in the United States, had a very thorough understanding of the industry.
Qin Guan did not stop talking. Instead, he continued unhurriedly, "So, I'm going to talk about my greatest strength now …"
"Look at my face." Qin Guan held his chin gently and turned his head slightly from left to right. "I think you have a direct understanding of my business skills..."
The old men and women in front of him were dazzled by his dazzling light. Ouch! Dazzling!
Then, they nodded in unison, almost imperceptibly.
Marsha almost threw the laptop in her hand. What did he know? Can't you be more straightforward? Why is she the only one who doesn't understand?
"I think he is a good candidate. Our department needs talents like him. I remember that Vivian and Jennifer are still hesitating about which firm to choose."
"Our PR department is also short of such an ambassador. Ask the PR department to advertise him as an elite accountant and put him on TV."
"Actually, our PR department can make full use of his talents. Look at him at the reception. He can take charge of a department by himself..."
They had not even announced the result yet, but they were already fighting for Qin Guan.
Marsha, who had been ignored all this time, felt depressed. What Qin Guan said next shocked her.
"Actually, I came here to learn from you. I hope to learn a different business philosophy. As one of the big four, PricewaterhouseCoopers has its own advantages."
"But I've learned a lot from this conversation. Thank you for telling me about the current situation of Chinese accountants, and why we have zero partners."
"So, thank you, seniors, for answering my questions …"
