I am currently an audit A2 that will be promoted this June to an S1 looking to move to financial due diligence in the San Francisco / San Jose area. I have worked primarily in financial services while also having IPO and SPAC experience. Is anyone within FDD willing to chat so I can learn more about their experience to make this process a bit easier?
