Are you CPA eligible?

If not, B4 probably won’t take you since you need CPA to advance past senior

Ok thanks much for the info

What state are you in OP?

Go into Consulting, get your CPA, then pivot. Plenty of accounting related stuff you can do in the interim.

Idk, audit was so easy I feel like I shouldn’t have left. Could have made partner much faster then do another pivot to industry or consulting making bank.

OP, look at the services big 4 firms provide and look at the services under consulting, like “finance effectiveness”. You don’t need an accounting degree to do these jobs, just learning agility. If you can’t get into the big 4, apply at the next tier of firms.

H1-B transfer question

I recently accepted an offer to join a company (A) . They started my H1-B transfer and I received today the approval notice for the transfer.

However, I accepted last week a (better) offer at another company (B) and they will start soon my H1-B transfer.

I attend to tell company (A) on Monday that I will not be joining them. Will there be any issue with company B filing for a H1-B transfer soon?
