What are some careers/roles you have seen folks with risk (primarily internal audit) experience break into? I don’t want to go back to school for a secondary degree + I don’t mind a pay downgrade

There's a lot of opportunity in strategy consulting. There's also a lot with the newly proposed rules in helping to define roles and responsibilities of 2nd and 3rd line as a part of resolution plan submissions for cat II/III banks that are expected to have risk integrated Into the process like GSIBs

I’m a first generation professional and a bit lost on what path I should take. I’m a senior at Deloitte in the assurance department. I’ll be honest and say that my priority is to make the most money I can in the future and would like to plan according to that priority. I have really good SOX 404 experience. My choices are the following 1) become the lead senior in my public client and stay in assurance 2)FSO 3) Advisory?

Perhaps this is a silly question, but how did people here decide on their career path? I feel really burnt out in my current job and want to transition to a new role, but I can’t decide on what path I want to take, and I don’t know if trying to stay in the same field but perhaps a different environment might change how I feel. To put things in perspective, I’m only a year out of undergrad and trying to figure out if I should apply to grad school or pivot career paths.
