How is having 2 YoE in both audit and tax (one year in each) seen when you’re ready to exit to industry? considering you’re A1 in both. I want to have practical experience in both but I also realized I just don’t like audit so i’m currently looking to switch to tax and I understand I will have to start as A1 again.
