I can only advice to write down what your goals are. If you have no idea where to go just write what you want to do or like to do to start understanding where to go. I think with KPMG experience there's a lot you can do, even internal transfer. If you are in Audit after 3 years there are several avenues you can explore. But first things first, what do you want to do? What do you find interesting? What's your goal? Is it to switch careers? Is it to have a better wlb? KPMG experience will open many doors.
