Hello Everyone,

I currently was let go from a Senior SALT (State and Local Tax) position with a large public accounting firm. I was wondering if anyone has any advice on what kind of position I could pivot to. I am hoping to find something in private accounting, and it doesn't necessarily need to be a SALT position. I'd like to see if anyone has any advice on where a SALT technical skill set would be useful or easier to transition to. I'm open to continued education and CPA licensure.
