Do you have any FDD experience? If not, probably a no go for our firm. Hiring has slowed down a good deal, especially for those without FDD experience looking to join our transactions group.

If working in deals is what you want long term at b4 you might consider first transferring into big4 Audit, work a year until the deal flow picks up and transfer into big 4 FDD.

I work on the tax side so might be way off but I know people who have done this to get into M&a tax.

It's arguably the worst time to be looking to move to FDD, hence the suggestion above to look into smaller firms.

do MM FDD then pivot to big 4 when things are better…

did you try and transfer within RSM? wouldn't surprise me if it's not possible/rotation only right now

Is it more worth it to go into FDD at a regional firm now, or hope that my current big 4 will transfer me come spring 2021?

I'm kind of in the mindset of only doing FDD at big 4, otherwise I'll go straight to industry. Am I being too down on mid-market FDD experience and the related exit ops?

Also, I can't go the route of doing FDD at a different big 4. Already got rejected by all of them cause I'm not in audit (but have CPA).

Any thoughts around how to use M&A tax skills for the better good? I’m a CPA and originally got into this for a stable / interesting job, but in the long-term I’d like to do something that either influences drafting of tax legislation or helps the public (however naive that may sound). Perhaps I’ve gotten too introspective during the pandemic. Don’t really want to go back for a JD and aside from keeping a roof over my head I’m not very motivated by money. Anyone else have similar ideas?
