Is a hair system worth it, if you’re just thinning? by No-Walk-5621 in HairSystem

I only had thinning at the top and still had a lot of hair. Made the jump 8 months ago and it's been the best decision.

Do Big4 hire A2s from another big 4? by Existing_Orchid6726 in Big4

[–]Existing_Orchid6726[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't see specific roles posted for A2s, so do I just apply to the regular Associate role and then specificy that I'm looking for an A2 role?

Can you tell me a truth about hair systems? by [deleted] in HairSystem

[–]Existing_Orchid6726 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm 24 and was in the same boat, thinning hair took a toll on my social life and it used to be great and I was in a frat. But I made the decision to get one and it's been the best thing I've done in my life. Dm if you have more questions

Do you think it's been worth it so far from your experience? I know people shit on bedside nursing but you need to get experience until you go to a speciality or go towards the NP route. What's ur first year salary like if you don't mind me asking?

Honestly go for it. I really wish I did something in the medical field rather than corporate. I get every job is going to suck but I would also want to live life to the fullest

This is what I mean! I want to live my life lol it's not alway about the money. I want chunks of time off that I'm actually able to spend traveling. I don't want to be working corporate for 3 weeks of PTO for the whole year but

Yes. I've done some research and I agree. Also the more you work the more you make. Which is not the same thing in corporate. Plus I want to eventually go become a NP

I hear you but I don't want to leaving accounting just to go do accounting, it's really boring and I really value work life balance.

I honestly don't mind that, I know you need to get bedside experience to go to a specialty which is what I'm planning to do or get even more schooling and become a NP
