M. Com graduate (2020) looking to restart my finance career after a break. Due to personal reasons, I couldn’t work in the field, but now I’m fully ready to dive in. Struggling to land opportunities—anyone who’s navigated a career gap in finance? What worked for you? Any certifications or strategies that helped? Appreciate any insights!

Depends on which type of department you want to work in. IFRS or US Gaap courses would help if you want to work in FR.

Yes I think if you start at a lower level. But it's worth a shot. Try talking to someone who is already into FR, and ask if they will hire someone with such a background. Unfortunately I am not into FR.

Hii Guys, Could anyone give me some clarity on the below point. I have cleared 2nd round of technical interview at Deloitte, but my candidature is still showing as interview in progress at Deloitte careers page. I had a discussion with HR on this and she told me that next process is pending from management side. It's been almost 10 days since from 2 nd round of interview. How much more time does it gonna take, any idea? Or is it normal. Please help me with this 🙏🙏 .Deloitte
