When Ruyi first moved to Australia, she arrived as an international student from Shanghai, China, and didn’t know what path she wanted to take. But during her time at Macquarie University, she attended a panel discussion with a female Asian partner from one of the Big 4 accounting firms, and for her, that was a major turning point.
“I did some research and, within the Big 4 accounting firms, PwC was a standout. And because I was an international student, I thought I might go back to my own country after several years. So, I researched some options for my major and found that audit skills transfer to anywhere in the world. Wherever you go, the audit methodology will not change.”
