Does anyone else feel like they haven’t developed any truly transferable skills? I’m a manager in our Internal Audit practice and I think this idea keeps me from exploring other options.

One you get to the manager level it is harder to leave, but you’ll be surprised how easily auditor skills transfer to accounting projects

I agree with you. This is why I didn't go to internal audit after leaving public, but a lot of internal audit programs are rotational and put you in another department. I would try to get transferred to another department inside the company

Retrival yesterday and they were able to retrieve 10 eggs. I had 10 follicles. So happy. I hope everything after this goes well. This is my first IVF cycle. So anxious. I am doing a fresh transfer on Monday. I hope we get at least 4 embryos. I am totally dreading the progesterone shots. Any tips on how to make it painless?

Whew this group is a relief to find. No one at my job knows I have ADHD, and I only have one other friend with it. I manage a team of people and the stress of checking, double checking, and triple-checking everything to make sure I'm not forgetting anything or behind on anything is insane. I've kind of got the hang of keeping focus during work hours, but I'm just constantly on edge that someone will notice or I'll start falling behind.

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.
