Currently a Staff 2 moving into Senior position in KPMG Audit. Passed my CFE and am now trying to evaluate where I should go in my career. There are so many opportunities out there, so I’m unsure as to how I should decide what to do next… that is; if I did want to leave Audit. Any advice?

With your CFE you can find a forensic/compliance role if that interests you. Perhaps see if you can get in touch with someone on that team at KPMG or someone from your network to get their insight to help determine if you think it'll be a good fit

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.
