Gelfand, Rennert, & Feldman Anyone familiar with the business management for HNWIs industry? Considering moving from audit to firms like NKSFB, Gelfand, Rennert, & Feldman etc., to work in their business management department. Is it possible to make a lateral transition? Just want to enjoy my job for once and that career actually sounds fun.

With my 20 years of experience at small business management firms, I had an interview with one of the biggies. I was then asked to take an aptitude test in accounting, and Microsoft Word (!), as if I would need to use all those little icons (that most people don't know what their function is, unless they are writing a manuscript or research paper) to pay rich people's bills. (I should mention that I had previously corrected the grammar for one of my superior's correspondence to a client, and also re-wrote a client's email to the VP of a record label to request an increase in the recording budget). I completed the tests, and then I was ghosted. I applied a year later, interviewed with different people, and was asked to take the tests again. I respectfully declined, which I probably should have done the first time.

UPDATE (RE: SoCal Assistant Controller Interview)

So after two weeks of waiting (and giving up on the idea of getting the job really), the recruiter got back to me.

They said due to month-end and quarter-end close they were busy and couldn’t get back to me as quickly for a “good update”.

The recruiter said the CFO enjoyed our call, she, the CFO, will call me next week directly to “discuss some final things”.

Not sure if Im hired or not, but are there any questions about the job, comp (cont.)

I applied for a job and received an offer from my client. 15k+ bump in salary, better benefits/remote work, and responsibilities will give me exposure to all areas of the organization (start up).

I would report directly to the controller and have 1-2 staff reporting to me...
