Looking to get out of public. I know nothing but public so how do I begin this process of transition and practically getting into private?

Apply and don’t suck. Seriously though you just need to apply. Depending on your level companies already expect that you won’t be familiar with certain things (software, unique company issues, team structure, etc). But the idea is that public is more fast paced and so you should be able to catch up now that your focus is only on one company. At least that is my perception of it all

Hey - I’m a recruiter for accounting roles in NYC (and started my career in public as well). I’ve helped a ton of professionals get out of public so DM me if you are still interested in new opportunities.

Anyone switch companies while pregnant/trying to become pregnant and still able to take maternity? I have been waiting months for a DOD job to open up and was about to apply. Then I learned that in order to have paid leave (and any job protection), I’d have to work with the DOD a year first before going on leave. Add 6-9 months for background checks to the process and any hope of that job went right out the door for me as I’m currently in the process of doing IVF.
