Any advice on what to do to cope with stress the days leading up to your CFE results? (Canadian CPA exams). Feeling extremely anxious and any little thing seems to push me over into anxiety

Has anyone tried to get their CFE? Any advice? How was studying compared to CPA?Swore I’d never take another exam again after the CPA but if CFE isn’t too much work to study for it might be worth it.

2 questions:

1. Amongst all the big PA firms, who has the strongest forensic service line?

2. CAMS or CFE or CFF?(already a CPA).

Thank you!

Advice on how to start CFE? I gotta become a member first, but then what? And approximately how long did it take to study for while working?

Does anyone here have a STUDY GUIDE for the CFE EXAM (Law & Investigation section)?

Has anyone worked in the disaster recovery Space and went directly into fraud? I’ve worked on disaster recovery projects as a Quality Assurance Analyst. Essentially we make sure no fraud is occurring. I haven’t had any luck finding a remote fraud role without my applications getting denied. I’ve been thinking about getting my CFE, as I’m sure that might help.

Considering going for the CFE. What was your study plan for it and how long did it take?

Should I apply for a job KPMG forensics(associate level) after 2 years audit experience? Have CPA but not CFE. Thoughts?

Looking for advice on certifications, which is better to take 1st, CFE or CFCS or CAMS?

I was wondering if the review course “CPE Self Study Course” for the CFF was enough preparation to study and pass the CFF exam. The CFE review course was enough and like if you get a question wrong it explains it well so that when it comes up in a different way in the real exam you can still get it. But when I saw the outline for the CFF material and there seems to be a lot of topics so I was wondering if the review course was sufficient considering this exam is also multiple choice. Thanks!

Tips on studying for CFE?

I have my cpa and cfe can someone give me a job??? Trying to leave audit

Anyone else taking the CFE and can give insight to whether the actual test was the same questions from the review/practice questions? Any study tips? FYI they are also changing their proctoring system in July. Thank you!

For anyone who’s taken / passed the CFE, is it worth paying for the full exam prep course or would studying the fraud examiners manual suffice?

How long, on average, does it take to get certified after completing CFE exam?

I was told getting CFE could increase my earing potential by 17%, has this been anyone else's experience?

What’s the best CFE prep course? And does anyone know if EY reimburses?

Can anyone provide some guidance to taking the CFE? As in which membership option to choose from followed by when exactly can we take the exam, if the entire amount is reimbursed or not? Just a generic timeline and additional required info. Don’t want to sign up yet if the exam dates are not flexible. Thank you.

What should be the next certification that I should get? I have the CFE. I’m targeting the CFCS and the ACAMS as the next ones that I should get. Any thoughts on which one I should get 1st? Pros/Cons

I feel like public accounting isn’t my calling, but I’m good at it and could probably make partner one day. How does one decide if they should explore other companies/roles and potentially find happiness/alignment in the role or just send it and stay in public accounting? I struggle because on paper industry doesn’t interest me since I’m a people person and not really a number cruncher.
