cont. Lately, my position has become less accounting related and I would like to find something similar or better suited to where I am headed career wise (I am thinking audit). Also about to start recruitment season for internships, but right now, I still need a part-time gig in my life for cash flow reasons. My question is, what did you do part time in college that helped you around this time? Do you have any suggestions for what I should be looking for position wise or should I just be waiting tables for the flexibility? Any constructive and useful advice and experience would be appreciated. Thank you! I live in Houston, if that helps.

I was an exam proctor during my BBA. Gave me great flexibility to focus on school when I needed to, and is vaguely elated to audit too (rule enforcement).

I'm at a career juncture and have decided on a career in anti-money laundering as my new path. I'm also highly interested in additional education to further my career and am eyeing graduate school. Which is best? A law degree or a master's in international relations? Those are where my interests lie. I keep reading that JDs are valued in compliance but am wondering if a different graduate program is better for my goals. I already plan to obtain the CAMS certification. Thank you!
