Start a writing campaign – only write to the CEO’s – it doesn’t matter if they pass your letter down to HR – that’s what you want!Mark the dates you mail these letters, wait for a response, if none if forthcoming – write another letter – make yourself sound so good, they will want to have you for the summer – with the prospects of full term when you have graduated (with Honor’s) !Remember one thing, Every Country has different and distinct laws which apply to your intended profession, so don’t write to Countries where you #1 – don’t speak the language, #2 – don’t know the accounting methods of that country -etc. Remember, none of these companies are going to Pay Your Way! not for a summer job. Stay at home this summer, graduate, and then start looking around the world. You’ll stand a much better chance once your Accredited.
