pursuing chartered accountant course. Even

this course, Mr. Darda said that this figure

condition for getting hired. However, experience
and knowledge can also help students to get a
job.

choosing this course despite the low rate of

their horizons in developing soft talents such as
speaking English fluently since it is the main
