Everyone in partnership tax always thinks they can only go to partnership tax opportunities. You can look for anything in tax. Don’t think that corporate tax opportunities are out of the question. Yes there might be a learning curve but you probably have enough tax knowledge to pick it up fast. Plenty of people in industry lack the extend of tax knowledge that you might have because they only deal with the specific facts and circumstances for their company.

As a senior you could do literally anything. You're only really limited at senior manager or if it's manager and you're trying to go into something really specialized (but not the other way imo) For example, I do a mix of international tax and transfer pricing and would struggle going into partnerships, but I could probably do a manager fed asc740 role.

Talking about transitioning from public to industry, for the record

What would you say for a Senior with State and Local tax in partnership background? Would industry make you to work on Federal/International tax stuff even if no experience? Will it be a big learning curve from PA to industry?
