In response, a hing-ranking officials of an accounting firm said, "Since there are various fields of entry such as law schools and MBA, there were relatively few candidates and successful applicants for a while. However , the number of successful applicants seems to have increased as the number of applicants increased again, perhaps because the working environment of the accounting industry and compensation and treatment have improved since the New External Audit Act."
