Placement of Audit Semi-Senior at a Top20 Firm

Overview:

In the ever-evolving landscape of professional aspirations, our narrative unfolds with a LinkedIn connection following a professional recommendation by a colleague as they sought a new role at a Top 20 firm. Due to the time-sensitive nature, an initial call took place to understand their situation and provide impartial advice. This call occurred while I was in a restaurant, waiting for my food, and so was cut short but promptly picked back up.

This approach solidified our commitment to timely job searches when needed. A compelling CV was crafted later that day, along with a handpicked list of Top 20 and prominent regional firms that champion progress, inclusivity, and robust support for ACA ICAEW qualifications.
