“The pandemic postponed it to November 2020, we were also anxious about the discomfort of wearing a mask,” said Jain, who also has a job offer from a corporate.
“I want to work for corporates in consulting or finance field,” said Jain, whose father retired as an accountant from a private firm and whose mother is a homemaker. Jain enjoys reading business and political articles, loves playing chess and music is her stress buster.
Nathani, 22, too, completed her graduation in 2019 from NM College. Daughter of a CA father, the field was introduced to Nathani early in life.
“I start getting interested in my father’s work. After I joined NM College, CA had to happen,” shared Nathani. She plans to work in the consulting or management sector to understand the market and explore the industry before deciding on joining her father’s practice or taking over the business. The rank is certainly a surprise for Nathani as she was not fully satisfied with her paper. “It was not as good as I thought it would be, there is always scope for improvement,” she said.
Around 70,000 candidates appeared for the national-level CA examination in 2020.
