Anyone here switch from Risk Assurance to a different LoS like Consulting or Deals? How did you do it? Please advise.

Just finished one year as an Associate and I know that this line of work is not for me in the long term.

Agreed. Get out soon especially with the recent split. IT audit for life.

I'll let you know when I do lol. I was set up for an internal interview/rotation with deals but then covid happened. Probably just have to leave the firm.

Following up with your interview. Can you let me know how it goes if it still happens?

Making an offer. The sellers said they had 30+ people walk through the open house today, and are asking for best and final. They’ll make a decision on Monday. The list price is 775k. We were originally thinking of offering 700 to start since comps are around 735k. However, this is nicer than the comps renovation-wise. What would you all suggest we offer? We’d rather lose the house than overpay, so this concerns us.
