I am originally from South America. Learned English on my own and moved to the US to go to a non-target private school. Majored in Actg and finance, 3.4 GPA. I'm taking the last part of my CPA in a few weeks and CFA level 1 in December. I got an internship with a Big 4 firm in audit, and have been working with the firm full-time for almost a year. Last week I heard that I wasn't selected in the visa lottery, so I gotta leave the country in 4 months unless I go back to school. My 3 options are: 1 - Go back to school for a Masters in Finance, but I would need a nice scholarship to afford to stay in the country. I also haven't taken the GMAT so no chance of getting in a top program. 2- Try to transfer to one of the offices in Europe (big 4 pay in south America is really bad) - I've talked to people in the firm and it's much harder than I thought, considering that I'm not European. I am also not particularly in love with the audit work, and I would most likely have to stay in that division to be able to transfer with my firm. 3 - Apply to new jobs. The dream would be a job in PE/IB anywhere abroad, but I would be happy with anything deal/transaction related. I know this is a terrible time to search for a new job.
Any advice? What would you do if you were in a similar situation? Thank you in advance!
