I found out this week that I’m getting promoted to tax manager this fall. I had applied for a senior FP&A role at an insurance industry and now they asked me to the final round of interviews. Really my only reason for leaving is pay and wanting more consistent hours, but I worry industry will leave me wanting more money. What are your thoughts on this situation? Currently at a mid-tier firm.

Thanks for the response! The funny thing here is I don’t necessarily like being in the weeds. I want to be managing people, recruiting, training, doing business development, etc. Seems kind of like this may be a good fit for me.

If the effective date of the promotion is in the next couple months, then stick around. You can leave shortly after, but the promotion to manager will be a safety net for your resume if you end up hating the next job. Otherwise, you’ll be required to keep Sr. Acct on the resume. Also, consider the pay raise at the current firm and that (i assume) you’ll now be bonus eligible.

So, a recruiter gave me feedback that my lack SPHR or SHRM-SCP is causing my resume to be knock out by AI and human recruiters despite my position and work history in Multinationals and being in Technology. They suggested that we put SPHR ( Lapsed). I let it lapse in 2017. What is your opinion? Plus if I were to take another certification - should I take SPHR or SHRM-SCP?
