Bain & Company Question for ex-audit current advisory folks - from an audit S1 in KPMG NYC financial services:

1. Is it best to apply to rotate and try to stay or apply outside the firm [$ comp and success rate]
2. When is it best to make the switch? S3? M1? Does it matter?
3. Any sub-service line/group recommendations? [$, hrs, content, variety, team dynamics]
4. I have a CPA and MS but is there any other edu or cert recs?
