Thank you, Bill, for sharing this great information! I wish you could make another content regarding career path opportunities of other sections like tax, advisory, etc, in public accounting companies. Also, I believe adding two factors of AGE and AI to each career path opportunity would be so helpful. Thanks

Hi, I really enjoy your content. I am currently a senior accountant for a PE company with a background in private accounting. I’ve been deliberating between making a pivot into FP&A or almost starting over and applying for a state government audit position. The reason I want to try audit is because I later want to get into consulting and I’ve been advised that that’s the route to go. Do you have any advice or thoughts on this career pivot?

I’m exactly where you were at the start of your career, just made senior in financial services audit at pwc. I notice a lot of senior accountant roles in industry require experience in month end closes, financial statement preparation, and accounting software like Quickbooks. Did you have issues translating your audit experience to industry skills when interviewing?
@TheFinancialController4 ай бұрын
These types of experiences will gathered over the years once you go over to industry. In interviews, speak to how you reviewed clients month end procedure, so on

Here’s a question…when is it too late to consider becoming CPA. I’ve worked in accounting for over 10 years and earn a decent salary. But I noticed job posts are requiring certifications regardless of years of experience

If you are already an Accountant, I don't think there is a limit (but not 70 obviously). I would think even if you are 50, CPA will give you a great ROI on the effort (but the younger, say 25-40, the better)

Hi. I came across your videos because I was not sure whether to exit out of public accounting to accept an Assistant Controller role at a startup company. Would you say that an Assistant Controller can ultimately transition well into a Controller role? Do you have any advice on starting a career on a startup co?

Is it true that there is shortage of accountanta in USA? There is a educational institution in India which is selling this, and encouraging to get CPA and move to America from India. What salary can I expect if i decide to move to US after getting CPA? I have around 9 years experience as a Senior Accountant

I currently work in banking for a credit union. After getting my CPA would it be more beneficial for me to leave to get some public accounting experience and return to banking or apply for a position with my accounting department and work my way up the ranks that way? Big fan of your channel and thanks in advance for your advice.
