I'm M20, currently working in Audit (UK) towards ACA. I decided against Uni and would like to work in TA/DA, Consulting or a similar field and wanting to know the hurdles that will be infront of me.

I'd be open to moving, this isn't anything immediate as I've only been here 18 months but something I'd like to work towards.

I feel like I have no actual friends in my home office. I only go out after work with the team that I'm on. I'm in no groupchats or anything. Will this hurt me in the long run?

Just got the permit approval for 3 nights of camping in the Grand Canyon for the end of May! Going to do rim-to-rim hike. Any tips or recommendations? Thanks!

Idk how, but I got the offer. Still wondering if it’s real (it’s been 30mins since the phone call) because I thought I performed so poorly. I wouldn’t have passed myself. I hope the interviewers didn’t make a mistake (accidentally mixed up evals for another candidate, or the call was meant for another candidate w/ the same name). I do want to thank the Fishbowl community though. So many of you took the time to share your experiences and encourage me. I couldn’t have done this without you.
