A little bit about my background: I currently have about 2-3 years of IT experience developing/designing websites with a good amount of portfolio to show for it. Some of these projects required me to learning a little bit more about my clients systems. For example, some VBA excel integration, MySQL, and secure log in for data retrieval and what not. This is all small scale because majority of the work was design/development. The point is, at times I have to evaluate their existing site for information and controls to make sure I can implement them on their new site. I recently took my REG exam with crazy amount of studying and have NOT taken Audit yet. But I feel that taxes wouldn’t be too bad because of the studying time for the principles so far, but again, I don’t know the full scope of it because of lack of experience. Audit on the other hand, I have no experience yet.

My question is, based off of the above information, do you think that I have put myself in a neutral position if I were start applying right now, or should I be leaning more towards Audit (May IT Audit?). Again, I don’t know much about Audits conducted at firms, but I sort of do Audit on my clients content right now? I am pretty good with learning new softwares and computers if that helps.

Any advice is appreciated. Thank you everyone!

IT auditing. I think you'd have no problem finding a job and it's really a growing profession which pays some good $$.

@brooks303 You think that is based off of my current background/experience that I shared? Thank you again

I do say that based off your current background. If you like IT no need to start over. There are a ton of opportunities within that realm.
