Is this your first job? If so, big4 audit, if you have exp already, MM AAS.

In the end it all depends what your end goals are though

Audit sucks, if you want to go to b4 after mm then it’s easier because you’ll have aas experience already so I would say yes

Depending which MM I would lean towards accounting advisory. Otherwise do big 4 audit and then transfer to accounting advisory after 1-2 years

Hi all!
Would love some insight on how you went from an HR assistant/coordinator to an HR Generalist. I’ve been in the HR world for 8 years, and only in the last 2-3 have I really done real HR work. The first company I was at didn’t have a solid HR team so I don’t really count that. I feel like I’m ready to take on more responsibility and learn more. And of course make more money.
