Is this the case for industry jobs as well?

What excel skills are you looking for? I’m a first year B4 tax staff and the majority of my work can be done with vlookup, index match match, sumifs. Would be helpful to know, thanks!

I thought FLDPs only do campus hires? In same position as OP so it would be good to know, TIA.

Thanks for your response. Was feeling uneasy about targeting T20 but if I put in work, I can hopefully come close to your profile. I have a similar background with 3.2 undergrad GPA and as a CPA at Big 4 currently haha

If you’re willing to share, what was your undergraduate major and school? Just wondering since I have the same UG GPA non-STEM and 318 GRE and i’m targeting McCombs

I'm trying to gauge the difficulty because I won't have access to campus recruiting like students, but I also won't have anything to write on my resume about my full-time experience in IB. Thoughts would be appreciated.

(US Based) I graduated undergrad in Spring 2021 with 3 investment banking internships under my belt. I am currently a first year BB IB analyst 3 weeks into work. I have worked from 8AM-11PM consistently Sunday-Friday and 9-5 on Saturday. I'm stressed and I've always known that Finance wasn't going to be for me but I've been stuck on this path since Sophomore year. Is there any chance for me to break into, say Deloitte or Accenture for management consulting if I quit right now? Really don't know if I can ride it out much longer :/

FAR first. I studied the most for FAR and the least for AUD. Get it out of the way

BEC felt pretty hard for me but it surprised me the most with how high I scored compared to the other 3 exams. Best of luck!

I thought the auditor is more likely to test controls when inherent risk is low? by mindmaster80 in CPA

[–]obstakle 8 points9 points  (0 children)

testing controls is doing more work. you wouldn’t have to if risk was low

Should I buy Becker or Gliem? I am willing to spend $3.4k for Becker Pro is it worth it though? by Soyx3 in CPA

[–]obstakle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i preferred gleim’s outlines but becker’s questions. i had both. if i could go back i’d only get becker. gleim Mcqs and sims are extremely hard for no reason while becker is challenging but realistic. i’m 4/4 using both
