What’s the most effective way to land a job outside public accounting? I’m currently looking for one and wonder it’d be easier to talk to a recruiter or simply apply online for what I’m interested.

I reached out to recruiters and set my LinkedIn to show I was open to new opportunities. That increased the amount of recruiters who reached out to me.

You're welcome. Finding a recruiter who will review your resume and help you tailor for a job is best too. I've worked with some who don't put much effort in, and the better ones who will coach on resume, interview prep, etc. Makes a big difference

Don’t be afraid to apply to big names, I interviewed with Amazon, google and Lyft. Unfortunately I fucked up in all of these interviews. Hahaha
It’s easy to get a job, but what I would do if I were you, is get an awesome paying job.

What level are you? How long have you been in PA? What's been a majority of your experience - SOX, implementation, SOCR, IA etc.?

I’m interviewing for a Director of Marketing and Communications role. Although it’s a little bit of a stretch with things I’ve never done before, I think I could do it. However I’m having a bit of imposter syndrome due to my age (27).

I’m worried they’ll take one look at me and assume I’m too young to handle it. Same goes for anyone I’d be managing.

Any advice/tips?
