Currently an S2. Looking to exit into a VP position in industry. Doesn’t need to be F100, I’d be okay with F1000 I’m mainly just looking for a clear path to the c-suite. Is this doable?

I think it’ll be hard. Especially during these times. If you bring something unique or interesting to the table to distinguish yourself then I think there’s a chance.

Otherwise if it’s a typical 5 years experience S2 from a B4, I don’t see any reason why someone would hire you for VP when there’s many of these positions require 10 years of experience. I’d think something like a B4 SM/D has a reasonable shot.

I’ve seen senior managers go to be Directors of SEC Reporting

Nope. Publicly traded company and doubled salary.

If not VP, what’s a realistic point of entry?

For B4 - For teams with temp (contractor) seniors - I’ve noted that they are held to the same work quality standards of normal full time seniors, while not getting any of the senior trainings or perks that would go with that perm role (just some basic survivals trainings at best), nor the access to the perm positions once they prove they can do the job. Then heard they are viewed as little higher than outsource teams (i.e., the offshore teams only given non-judgmental work). What’s your opinion?
