BIG 4 or Fund of Funds
I received an offer from a very small boutique fund of funds, very small. And I received an offer from a Big 4. I want to get a CPA but I really want to work in finance. Can anyone weigh in on this dilemma I'm facing????

At a big 4 doing...? And they are both technically in "finance", one just might not be as glamorous as the other
Big 4, as an auditor. Fund of funds as an analyst.
I'd go with the Big 4. I was in a similar dilemma and chose Big 4 audit and very quickly moved to TS and very quickly thereafter moved to a corporate finance role. Do Big 4 with a focus the entire time on mastering excel / basics of finance / how the 3 statements interact. Try to get into TS (if this is your route, you'll have to get a good rating), but it is not necessary if you master the aforementioned items and can articulate your goals and skills.
I forgot to mention that I'm currently at the FoF and working as an analyst. The audit job won't start until next year... Thoughts?
