Hi Jason,

Thanks for the great article!

I am hoping if you can offer some advice for me to pursuit ER career.
As for my background, I have a statistics degree and ACCA (accounting professional qualification).

Currently, I am working in a mid-tier audit firm as an auditor (approaching 1 year of experience). For job scope wise, most of the time we are testing if the financial statements are "done" accurately.

Is it wise to stay on as auditor for the next few years to get the chartered accountant qualification? Cos from what I sense, there seems to be no transferable skill from auditor to ER analyst. And what really worries me is that after 3 years, I might be pigeon-holed as an accountant/auditor.

Thanks in advance!
