Is it okay to interview for a commercial banking position when you've recently helped on the company's EBP audit?

Thanks for the replies. For KPMG people, I see that if we are considering taking a position with any restricted entity we have to let our BUPPP know. I'm considering applying to a job at a different audit client (not one of my own) and not sure to handle this. Has anyone ever had this experience before?

Nope. Independence is KPMGs issue not yours.

Only an issue I believe if they solicit you for a financial reporting role

^Would that apply also to EBP audit? I thought only financial statement audit. Usually EBP are administered through HR, not corporate accounting team.

Typically solicitation applies to any engagement (think it's in the EL) - also if the job is done then it's not really a concern. The issue is if you would be working on the client currently and so your independence could be impaired. You would have to excuse yourself from the engagement

I believe independence standards are the same for EBPs and a traditional FS audit.

She asks me about salary & availability to start and says she’ll try and get an update from the team. I haven’t heard & im wondering if I got rejected

Looking at fee increases for 2021 tax compliance and probably going for 10% increase with most clients to account for increases to wage levels this year.

Those that want to fire me over fees I feel ok losing clients with decreasing profitability that can be replaced within a year. What kind of increase are you pursuing?

If you are starting as an Audit Associate some time from now with Deloitte or any of the big 4, do they expect you to have passed/completed all 4 parts by the time you start?

I’ve seen plenty of people get to Senior at a big 4 firm without the CPA so I am a bit confused in that aspect. Any helpful feedback will be very much appreciated.

Been passed over for promotion twice (had support from multiple partners both times). Received the top performance rating every year since joining the firm (6 years), which I’ve heard is rare. When passed over, the partners say there were others who have been waiting longer (not necessarily with the highest ratings) and that I should “keep doing what I’m doing” and basically wait my turn. Anyone else face this and have any suggestions/guidance?
