I have passes all 4 CPA exams and and in the middle of obtaining my license. I was laid off 2 months and currently looking for a new role but no luck so far. I wonder if it is because of resume. I have 4 YOE from both external auditing and regulatory reporting for banking. What should I change my approach to pass the resume part? I'm looking for corporate accouting or financial reporting roles. Thanks in advance

I’m in a similar position except I have the CPA and am still struggling to land a job. I’m starting to consider going back into audit at this point.

The job market isn’t hot right now, so that could be part of it. A lot of companies are using AI to pick out resumes to review, so you need to ensure your resume has key words that are used in the job description to get past the AI part for a real Human to read your resume.

Huge btc short position in market right now, I expect a lot of liquidity issues to come to light soon. Bitcoin should end up below 30k and stay there as new resistance soon. You all doubt my previous posts but all these bumps to 37-39k are fake bounces from retail buying the dip. Defi is gonna unravel. Do you honestly believe the 10-40% defi interest rates were risk free. It’s all paid by stablecoin printing backed by the assumption that crypto prices would keep appreciating

Hi all,

Do firms match offers from other Big 4s for campus hires? I’ve received a campus offer from both
KPMG and EY. I’m more interested in the EY offer, but they are paying 3k less than KPMG.

Would it be a bad move to let them know about the other offer and try negotiating? I feel it wont make a difference in the long run, but at the same time I don’t want to leave any money on the table if possible.

Thanks!

Out of curiosity. How would a company view a potential candidate who has a period of unemployment to study for the CPA. I am considering to start studying for the exam but I know I would need to leave my employer in order to give 110%. I am contemplating the idea of at least passing one part while employed. Then leaving my employer to study FAR. I am considering to leave my current employer anyways, so it’s more of how my future employer would view that lapse.
