Career question. I have 2 years of experience in advisory at Deloitte and a year of experience as a Business Analyst at a bank. I’m 4 classes from being CPA eligible, was a business major in undergrad and have a masters in info systems. I want to know would that experience count, and when should I pursue accounting roles. I’m thinking audit over tax maybe but still unsure. Thanks !

Your experience counts IF you were working under someone who had an active CPA license during that time. It doesn't necessarily have to be an accounting role. That person needs to sign off on your hours.

This rubs me the wrong way, but wanted to hear what others think…
