Hi, I’m trying to figure out my long-term career path. I’ve worked in IA for most of my career. I recently got my CPA, and re-entered the work force after a 13 year break. Got back in as a Sr IA. Not sure what my options are in the long run with my background. Suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
