Is a jump from S1 Audit to a Senior Consulting Position for a 18% raise decent (MCOL)? Don’t feel like pivoting to industry yet. Want to stay in a client facing role until Manager — just don’t think I can last till Manager in Audit. But wanted to get some additional opinions/thoughts.

Apply to another firm, get an offer and leverage it. I’ve heard stories of internal transfers taking forever & this is the only way to speed it up

Yes get away from audit as soon as you can. Your salary growth will explode

Do you think it’s a better to transfer internally to a Consulting / Advisory position within the firm? Or better to transfer externally to another firm?

External

Advisory I think is the best pivot outside of audit. Our firm may be hiring, dm me so that I can check based on location.

Wondering if anyone can share the approximate timeline after applying to Target Corp. to hearing something from them.

Many thanks.
