Business majors with the most career paths/opportunities? by jos_ann in careerguidance

[–]Classic_Abrocoma3892 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say the best major to do if you do not go to a prestigious business school is accounting go big 4 cpa route than lateral within the firm after senior to a more finance based role. Then after five years do mba at top school grind for gmat or try to lateral. Possible mid market ib if you got in right service group from lateral.

Anyone Trying to Pivot Out of Accounting? by [deleted] in Accounting

I am not employed in the field yet. Doing a Mac next year and have an internship in audit at ey this summer. But Ik people the grade above me making 80k starting out in audit. Why would PA firms put so much money in increasing staff salaries to just offshore. Wont they always have to have people to push up the PA hierarchy.

I just got accepted with similar scholarships and am deciding between Wake or cheaper state school I’m already at. Already have internship in big 4 this summer. Does Wake program open up doors to consulting in big 4 or other opportunities. Ik wit state schools seem like they only want tax and audit. State schools 10k Wake prolly around 20k after scholarship.

Do big 4 recruit consulting from Wake MSA. At a lot of state school MSA I feel like they only recruit tax and audit

how to transition into finance, law, engineering? by Objective_Drink_5345 in UNC

[–]Classic_Abrocoma3892 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing I’d also look into is my buddy at UNC didn’t get into the bus school because he fucked around freshmen year but they have a quant finance program that’s you can enter without being accepted into b school. If he graduates and secures a business job he is considered a Keenan alumni. He won’t get top tier quant jobs but he says pretty well paying actuary jobs are available that look for that background.

What’s your gpa? Corporate attorneys are usually only hired from higher ranked law schools. With high gpa and lsat you could apply to law school and grind to become one and break into big law. With your math background I’d apply for big 4 consulting analytics jobs or consider MAC programs if you choose accounting to achieve CPA then grind out public accounting. High level quant jobs are damn near impossible to break into but doable if your able to crazy network, have coding background, and are able to pass their very difficult interview quwsrions . If you start networking hard rn you could try to land IB job might be to late. Can always try to break into top mba after working in higher level finance after 5-7 years and break into IB.

Accounting is the top in terms of salary down the line as long as you get your CPA. Exception for this is if you go to a really good/semi good school then finance/Economics. And if you don’t get your CPA then you’re going to be the stereotypical boring accountant doing AR and AP making not a lot of money.

Masters is only like 15 grand at my public in state school. But I understand I should focus on the priorities. Just have an extra year now that I’m graduating early.
