1. Overview
The Global Reach Project in the first term provides us with plentiful advice of job hunting, useful tips for applications and effective practices to improve our interview skills.

4) Mock interviews

The online interview created a simulated environment for us to experience the tension when faced with the questions given by HR. It would be better to set more analogous interviews in the future.

To find a job as the auditor in Deloitte or KPMG is a wise choice for me, because the international accounting companies supply thousands of job vacancies every year and those jobs are highly related to my major, finance. For international students from China, we need to obtain working visa. Thus networking with the employers in advance becomes essential, which could increase my competence when
