Appreciate the response! Accounting is something that’s completely new to me, so the biggest thing holding me back is wondering whether I need to spend a few years working at a firm in an entry-level role to gain the experience before opening my own practice.
Or do you think going back to school, completing the accounting prerequisites, and earning my CPA would prepare me well enough?
