I became ACCA affiliate in june 2026. After that, i took a upskill course which will help to learn basic accounting softwares, some kind of audit practical work, etc.. But i dropped that upskill course, so i though these kind of skill can be easily gained through doing the work.

Now i planning to do internship in CA firms at bangalore, is that good option to work in a CA firm as a ACCA affiliate? and, i don't know where to start. Do CA firms usually hires ACCA affiliates for internship even if there is no openings.

I don't care about the salary i get, i'm okey with the stipend, but i wish i should get good work exposure, especially in audit field, that why i choose bangalore, where i heard that clients of the CA firms have much turn over and there might also have listed companies, therefore, we will get good exposure in bangalore CA firms, is that true?

How can i find out good work exposure CA firms in bangalore and approach for a internship?

How the interview will held for ACCA affiliates in CA firms, will that be like interview for CA articles? can someone give idea about the interview in CA firms for ACCA affiliates?

I’m planning to do BCom + ACCA after 12th and I’m kinda leaning towards doing both from the same uni

My thinking is that if I do ACCA through the uni maybe there are extra advantages like internships, placements, help with getting a job rather than just doing ACCA separately through tuition

But im confused for someone who’s doing acca or has completed it whats better?
