Kind souls who successfully exited to Google,
Would you be kind enough to refer me to a role at Google!
Came across a role that's a good fit. Would ideally like to target it through a referral and not by applying through the career site.
Would also love to maybe take you for a meal or alike to thank you for it :) Google
My company matches 3%. Is that low or on par?

FP&A isnt as good as everyone thinks it is…
Think it really depends on the company you go to. Fortune 100 corporate FP&A is very different than PE backed portco company FP&A
You’re probably going to have better luck getting a controllership or (maybe) corp dev role.
Forward looking, backward looking - it doesn’t really matter. The work is not rocket science. Just network harder OP
I’ve had 0 luck in my one month search for FP&A roles. But I also don’t have any data software experience
FP&A is so broad man. What exact role are you looking for, then rewrite every bullet on your resume to align with that
Not an easy transition. Like others said—network, cold apply, use recruiters, and reach out to folks on LinkedIn. It took my 6 months to grab up an FP&A role.
I did PwC Associate (Audit) > PwC Senior (FDD) > MM Manager (Advisory - full M&A cycle w/ both buy/sell side diligence) > Senior FP&A
