Some coworkers and I were discussing what everyone was using their CPA licenses for, beyond the obvious tax preparer / auditor positions.

I was last a director of financial reporting for a real estate company, and I was only able to achieve that through internal promotion. Finding a comparable job is difficult without a CPA (or SEC reporting experience, as my company was not public).

Getting close to an offer on a position, so will see how it goes. Either way passing all 4 parts shoudl help in my job search. Earliest I can get certified is 2011 since AZ Board of Accountancy does not meet again until the end of January.

I am very close to get an offer from the CPA firm that used to audit the Company where I have been the CFO for 3 years.
I would have to move back to NYC, but I managed to negotiate a not-too-bad salary for a public accounting position with no experience (a lil over 6-figure). Their clients are mainly subs of italian companies in the US, so my experience could be put at work.
Other than that, I found it impossible to find a job in Los Angeles (I've been here since February) without a CPA license/Big4 experience and/or SEC reporting and SOX compliance experience.FAR - 7/26/10 - 95
