Hello all, is the Audit Associate program at Wells Fargo in Charlotte a good way to get into banking and a way to learn valuable skills that will help make me a more in-demand employee. I want to work in banking but not sure what exact route. Would that be a good career move? Im 23 and work at Vanguard in customer service.

As an ex-auditor, audit will not lead you down a path towards banking, especially internal audit. Internal audit especially, the skills are not particularly transferable.

While audit is a potential path to investment banking, the path would typically look like this: public accounting > financial due diligence > middle market IB. this is a long path and not guaranteed. Note that public accounting is very different than internal audit

If you truly want to end up in banking your best bet is focusing on GMAT and getting into a good MBA program

Thanks for your input, i dont think i should stay in my current role and as of now that Wells job is my best option. Maybe i work that, while getting my part time MBA then make a move in like 2 years. Where were you an internal auditor?

Yes it will help, it will give you the ability to learn different parts of the business and open you up to new experiences. Not sure where all these other comments are coming from but the bank is losing people left and right so lots of opportunity. Also don't go into debt getting an MBA, have plenty of friends that did this and ended up with zero to no job progression. Get your experience and go from there.

Then repeat that process over and over until your company is down 50%

This is my first consulting role and I feel I am not receiving enough support. Few people are helping to learn the ropes but WFH has exacerbating the problem. How do I get a TL to receive pointed feedback? PwC

My professional life at the moment is far from ideal. I’ve been on quarantine (long story, but a good one) for the last seven years. Royalties from my books don’t pay the bills. My entrepreneurial pursuits remain hampered. For the interim, I’ve been looking for a remote opportunity where I can leverage my skills in marketing, sales, social media, and elsewhere for a decent sum. I have a social media presence which, in recent years, reached millions. There has to be something exciting I can do.
