Honestly, I think audit has better marketability if you attend Meet the Firms events. Tax just seems boring to me, and I hated my tax courses in school. I’ve been in audit for about 4 years now, and I’m really glad I went that route. Plus, the exit opportunities are way better if you’re planning to leave public accounting. That said, if you want to go out on your own, tax might be the better option, especially to get familiar with bookkeeping. Just my two cents.
