I would do property accounting as the field is bigger, more real estate companies, and you can make good money if you learn the accounting for property development and go to work for a developer.

Definitely real estate audit or tax.

Agreed. Property has more avenues and usually is has a better pay scale. Fund accounting usually is forngovt and nfp entities which typically are more niche and pay less than for profit companies.

Audit would ve more beneficial vs tax imo. Usually with tax, it is more biche than audit and usually ends up being in a tax role throughout your career. Audit is more versatile and has alot of different paths such as for example financial reporting, internal audit, fcpa, mergers/acquisitions, etc. You can also dip into finance roles much more easily as well with an audit background vs tax.

Hi everyone, I’m looking for some clarification. This may be obvious and I might not need to ask, but what is the difference between senior managers and managers? Apart from seniority. I’m trying to understand the dynamic of how senior managers are in closer contact with staff than managers. Or maybe I have the wrong idea...
