Hi friends,
Just wanted to get some opinions on going from an industry position to public accounting (Big 4, maybe?). Usually it’s the other way around, so I feel like I’ve missed out on some experiences.
For context, graduated college 5 years ago and have worked for the same publicly-traded company ever since. Almost went straight from college to a national firm, but had an offer given, then rescinded during the market crash. (Kind of scrambled for a job after that)
Just passed my CPA exams, and now I actually have time to think about making career moves.
What are all your thoughts on the necessity of working in public accounting and its impact on future job prospects? If necessary, is Big 4 the best way to go?
Advice, opinions, testimonials…. all appreciated.
Thanks!
