How to break in the finance industry
I am 24 years old, graduated from USC in Dec 2013. I passed the CPA Exam and CFA Exam Level I & II. I have worked as Revenue Accountant in private industry for a year. About to get certified as General CPA. Going to take CFA level III in June 2016. My career goal is to get into the finance industry. Now i am close to three job opportunities:
- Audit position at a regional CPA firm in LA
- Fund accountant at a fund management company for PEs & Venture Capital called Standish Management
- Staff accountant at an Asset Management company called ARES management
which one do you think i should go for? do you have any advice on how i can leverage my CPA & CFA background? You advice will be much appreciated!
