When you factor in the huge employee turnover within three years after being hired (40%-50%) at Big 4 firms, it becomes difficult for them to get picky. Again you have to network with your college alumni currently working at a Big 4. In addition, attend your college accounting career days and chat with BIG 4 employees. Last but not least, you want to follow up after your initial contact with Big 4 employees. If you are successful at securing an internship then you have a 95% of chance of receiving a job offer unless you screw up! Narkissos Dansu http://thestudentcpa.wordpress.com/ @ Robert Lowe:

Now a degree and a pulse will generally get you in the door! Getting hired by the Big 4 is no huge task any more. 15 years ago you needed a 4.0 GPA from an elite college just to get an interview.

I believe Jonathan said it all when he stated that through networking one can find out what the hiring manager is looking in a candidate. It all comes down to networking online or offline. Every job interview is different. There is no such a thing as one side fits all. By the way all the information is out there, you have to just look for it!
