The value is in setting a first impression. By saying ‘Qualified accountant’ or ‘CFA’ to certain people, you will immediately have set a bar for your intelligence and work ethic (whether rightly or wrongly)... Jump to comment

Hi Tax Bowlers,
I'm an experienced associate (2yrs) in a Big 4 Transfer Pricing division. I have reached a point in my career where I am considering taking up a professional certification. Several colleagues recommended taking up either ACCA or CFA, however, I see little connection between these certifications and the work that I am currently doing, and what I plan to do in the future. What would you guys suggest? Would it be detrimental to my career if I did not take up any certifications?

Well, my love for accounting screwed me. I started pursuing ACCA after my undergrad hoping to have a career in Audit. Few months into my articles I realised, this is not for me. There is more documentation than Accounting.
I tried shifting to advisory but they didn't let me.I completed my contract two months ago and trying to get out of this. Nobody considers me a candidate for TAS because my prior work experience is of Audit.

What should I do to change this and get a job in TAS?!

Working as an audit staff in big 4 shared service centre. It's been 2 years. I really don't like what I do there, also it seems I won't like what I'll be doing there even after becoming senior. Thinking of leaving and joining industry once ACCA qualified. (One more paper left). But people around me discourage that growth potential and earnings in industry are way less compared to public accounting. I know that too but I still want to leave.
I'd like to stick to core accounting.
