I left to work at one of my former external audit clients in IA department but it 3+ years passedsince I served on that client. There was a lot of paperwork and discussion that occurred between the partner, client VP, and HR to make sure no independence rules were broken. I even had to share the EY independence rule with the company during my interview process, which states a 3 year cooling period from the filing date of the last audit I worked on. Be prepared to have that discussion with the audit partner on why you’re leaving the moment you decide to apply.

Can we talk about privacy vendors? We are looking for a platform to handle data inventory and/or data discovery, as well as automating the privacy impact assessment process.

Anyone willing to share vendors they have had good or bad experiences with?

Dumb questions but genuinely curious:

1) Let’s say you’re a recent undergrad candidate with no internships on your resume. What’s the deciding factor that you’re qualified for Advisory vs Tax vs Audit? Is it school, gpa, etc.?

2) Why can’t you switch from Tax to another SL without having to pull strings? I understand that there’s a difference in tax vs book experience but why does the Accounting field gatekeep other SLs? It’s not like we’re incapable of learning other areas.
