If there’s a path to FPA available without getting a different job where you have to learn another different set of responsibilities before learning FPA, wouldn’t that be the most seamless option?

Rotation program seems like the most appealing option, I also can’t imagine an audit role helping you get into FPA.

I don’t think you need to wait to have those conversations and network with people from that team. I really wished I had taken to heart -your career is yours to manage- don’t wait passively, sometime an opportunity is there if you had just asked

Do the rotation

You dont need auditor experience to work within FP&A

Either rotation or direct apply to FDD. Time in audit Will only solidify you in the eyes of an employer as an accountant

helpful

Thank you !
