Hi everyone,
I am looking for some advice. So, I am currently doing a public-sector internship at a Big 4 (don’t want to get specific for anonymity purposes). I know how fortunate I am to be in this position but I’m not crazy about the public sector (state level). The recruiting team told me that I basically have to stick with the public sector with my internship.
Can someone correct my logic if I’m wrong-When it comes to auditing the exit opportunities are usually limited in the industry you are practicing in (ex: someone in Financial services (F/S) could get a job working in F/S while it would be much harder for an auditor working in the public sector to work in F/S and vice versa). So far, I’ve been told how inefficient government is and I’m starting to see firsthand how true that is. Someone on my engagement team told me that the public sector is the hardest auditing field because of all the bureaucracy that’s associated with government and my thought process was-fantastic so this is the hardest auditing field with the least lucrative exit opportunities. Is my logic correct in this or I am wrong (hopefully)?
