1. Most companies will not provide relocation so be up front that this move is on your dime to increase your chances. 2. Have a realistic target date for move and a valid reason for why you are relocating. 3. Ensure that they get a sense that you are moving permanently and not just test driving a new location —even though no job is 100% secure, for some reason employers act like they are only interested in candidates that will stay indefinitely despite turnover, layoffs, etc.

I have hit my wall. I cannot do public accounting any longer. I cannot deal with the constant focus on compliance, billable hour and the general unproductive behaviors/mindsets.

Now I just need to figure out how a director with a tax background can have transferable skills to something else...

Do you ever feel like there are rooms you’re locked out of? I’m a black woman, i lateraled to my group a few months ago with minimal onboarding and welcome.
