Anyone switched from Audit to Tax?, I have a couple of years of Audit experience but don’t like it. I think I’d prefer Tax due to more independent and technical work. Would love to hear your experience and if it was a good change or not.

Yeah I made the switch from audit to tax, and it's worked out pretty well for me. The work is more technical and independent, which I really enjoy. The transition was a bit tricky at first, but it definitely paid off in the long run. If you’re feeling stuck in audit, tax could be a great move

How would you recommend that I do that ?

I switched from audit to tax. I enjoyed the clients/work/teams on the audit side, but I didn't want to take on that kind of travel for the rest of my career. I've enjoyed the tax side for the last 19 years. It probably slowed my career progression from staff to senior slightly, but the audit background was helpful later in my career at the manager/sr. manager/partner level.

Hello, hoping for some input on how to time a job change. At a startup - we are doing well now but unless we have complete turnover in management I don’t think we have a bright future post-COVID. I could coast here 1-2 years before having to look. I’ve been here for a little under a year. This is my second in house job after 10 years at the same firm. The market is hot now, probably won’t be in 1-2 years and I am getting interest for good roles. OTOH I don’t want to look like a job hopper.

Hi Guys,
Hope everyone is well.

I am looking for a part time role for additional income source. I currently work in Category Management team of a Packed Food Company in Mumbai, India.

When I look for the part time roles I only find shady MLM and some delivery jobs. Nothing wrong in delivery jobs, but I am more inclined towards WFH role as me and my wife are pregnant.

Can you guys suggest where can I find reliable part time roles?

Thanks,
Kunal
