I’m in Tax, and will finish my CPA hopefully by the end of the year (2/4 passed). I’m 31, 5 years of exp in PA, 2 at B4; and I want out. I’m looking to move into the finance world. Equity analysis looks really interesting to me, how can I break into this field? Do I go get an MBA? Do I just start writing analysis on a blog and hope someone likes what I have to say? Any suggestions would be great. Also, how are the hours?

Posting 3x a week on LinkedIn and TT got me out of B4 and into a Fintech role making $180k from home.

People say it all the time that posting content helps, but until you do it... You don't get it. Only took 34 weeks of 3x a week. And yeah, that's six months, but the job hunt can take that long too.

Is it possible to make north of $300K in the HR organization? If so, how long will it take?… Here is some context: Recently I made a career change from Finance to HR driven by the passion I have for the type of work; I find myself working nonstop precisely because I like this line of work… I even dream about work! I have some personal/family (economic) goals I’d planned to accomplish in the next few years, but now I’m concerned if by following my passion, I’m putting my family at risk. Thoughts?

Hi Guys,
I am working as a Digital Strategy and Transformation Consultant in one of the "big" tech companies and was working in the same role in one of the major analytics firm previously.

I am now trying to move to Product Management and wanted to seek your guidance. What would be the best way to go about it? Should I do some certifications or should I apply for the jobs, hopefully land one and then learn on the job. Please guide.

About me: MBA from one of IIM ABC

Can we talk designations a minute? I'm at the agency level now and would like to move to a company underwriter. If I'm going to add some designations to my portfolio, which would be the best? I don't think jumping right into CPCU is the right way to go. I can earn my CIC and then pursue a CRM or CPRM. I don't think I want to do the CISR since that won't do much for me if/when I move to underwriter. Is there something else I should consider? Do designations matter at the company level?
