Manager in FSO Advisory now. Spent the first few years out of college in the Finance division of one of the largest US banks. All of the other questions are too identifying, but I work better hours here... Think it just feels longer here to so many people bc of all the extra work that’s required outside of client delivery

Out of curiosity. How would a company view a potential candidate who has a period of unemployment to study for the CPA. I am considering to start studying for the exam but I know I would need to leave my employer in order to give 110%. I am contemplating the idea of at least passing one part while employed. Then leaving my employer to study FAR. I am considering to leave my current employer anyways, so it’s more of how my future employer would view that lapse.
