May 19, 1998
I'm currently a systems audit senior for a large manufacturing company. My
background is three years of public accounting experience, two more years accounting experience
and nearly four years of systems analyst/systems auditor (almost two years of each)
experience. Certifications are CPA, CISA, and CNA (Novell Administrator). I'm in a unique
position in that I get to work on both systems and financial audits keeping two sets of skills
active. My question is, where do I go next? I don't know exactly what I want to do but I do know
what I don't want to do: systems administration, writing code, cost accounting or the like don't
really appeal to me. What career paths would let me take advantage of the experience I have in
both of these areas? Would a graduate degree be of assis
tance, and if so, what direction is best
to take?
Financial systems liaison would be an obvious choice. So would working for a
financially based software company such as Hyperion, SAP, or PeopleSoft, which would be very
interested in both skill sets.
