Currently a S1 in audit in the PNW region looking to exit PA, move to NYC and go industry, either in accounting or finance. What kind of jobs am I qualified for and should be targeting? Ideally looking to work remote for an NYC company for 6 to 8 months and move out there to work in person, is this possible? Could a recruiter help me with this? I have passed my exams and will be a CPA by end of the year.

You could probably land a number of senior accountant roles or financial analysts roles. You may even score a manager role if you’re slick enough. I wouldn’t take less than $90K.

Good insight, thank you!

What kind of questions have you been asked in interviews? I’m being invited back for a second interview for a Sr. Accountant position. The first one was very conversational.

I’m going crazy in Audit, I’m an A2. I think I’m going to try and transition to consulting. Would it be smarter to stay within the firm or go to a new one, and is there a half-step I should take (such as going to TAS for a year or so) before going into consulting? I just want more exposure to companies I work on than just the audit, it doesn’t feel like stuff I’ll be using in 5 years (but I’d be happy to be proven wrong on that). Business strategy/biz dev is catching my interest recently.
