Is it worth staying in public accounting if I want to pivot to a completely different industry (PE/investment/asset management)? I’m currently in DT tax BTS (1 yr.) and work primarily for investment management clients. But would like to avoid going into fund accounting/ops and would like to try and get An analyst role. The only upside I can see as of now is waiting til I get my CPA, and then apply to an MBA program which would help me land an analyst role. DT might help on an MBA application?

Which Salesforce opportunity should I take?

BVS Analyst: Pre-sales
Success Associate: Post-sales

Both roles seem to be a good fit but the BVS role would be a paycut (~23% of my current salary) and title downgrade while the Success role would be a big pay increase (~30%). From my understanding, the BVS organization is a much more well-regarded group in SFDC.

Any SFDC 🐠 have more insight?

I embed videos I make demonstrating how to complete a question, next I ask them to complete an example showing work, and then the next question they type their answer so it automatically alerts them to see if they answered correctly. It can be used live in a meet and on an independent virtual day. In my google meets, I’m able to give feedback on any question they have trouble with in real time.
