If I am currently a Tax Senior (SALT specialization), how can I transition into consulting? Are there certain qualifications that would help me be more appealing?

I just transitioned to consulting firm audit. It’s literally just network and luck. There’s no secret formula or anything, you just have to get the right people like you enough to give you a chance

What kind of consulting. As SALT specialization, you probably are or can me doing salt consulting.

That’s the issue I’m having. I don’t know what kind of consulting I’d like to do. I’d like to get out of SALT entirely if possible.

I have my CPA and a background in data wrangling and automation. I’d like to transition more that way.

Why not just work in SALT? I’m a SALT senior making $120k in Ohio 😎

Just 2

Edit: 2.5 if you include my internship
