I’ve been an accountant for 10 years, but my real passion has always been tech. Lately, I’ve been considering joining a tech startup, but I’m unsure how my accounting skills will transfer. I’ve heard data analysis and financial forecasting are valuable. How do you break into the industry, and what roles would you target? Is it a steep learning curve, or does an accounting background give you a head start?

Hello , anyone in this bowl working in the internal audit department of DB?

Hi All! Going through previous posts, I can see it is hard to get a comment/connection in this particular bowl. Reasonably so, as the field in itself is so hectic that professionals are usually busy.
