I’m a senior auditor at BDO with 4 years of experience. I recently applied to all Big 4 firms but didn’t get any interviews. My current environment is toxic, so I’m looking to leave ASAP.

Would moving to Baker Tilly help or hurt my chances of eventually getting into Big 4? I have an interview coming up with them.

Think you answered your own question. Your current traction is zero and can’t get any worse if you make the move.

Just wait it out. Moving around too much won’t look good.

I get it, but I made this move earlier in my career and it still comes up, so I would just play it safe and ride it out until the job OP wants becomes available.

I would put BDO and Baker Tilly in the same category - so I don’t think that would hurt you long term vs staying at BDO. BDO has the worst audit quality in the industry so no benefit in staying at BDO.

Why is it toxic? I was thinking of applying there

How come?

Hi all, I am a 4th year chemistry PHD student (International/Indian) and will surely finish in about a year, around Aug23. It can work for pharma (Merck, Pfizer, GSK etc.) as a scientist. However, I recently learnt that consulting firms particularly MBB also hire PHDs from diverse background. I am wondering what steps can I take in a year to do the transition if its possible? Or do I need to get some big brand name on my CV to do the transition?
