Finding work in Switzerland with US CPA
I'm in a weird situation and need some advice. Before I am judged: I have been looking for answers everywhere and was able to a couple of people on LinkedIn who have done a similar transition, which is not enough for me to take a decision.
Information about me:
- Accounting student and determined to become CPA in USA
- German citizen, fluent in German and English
- Willing to learn about IFRS and so on to increase chances.
- Willing to work 2-3 years in the US to gain experience (longer if necessary)
The European in me does not want to stay in the US for all my life. I want to live in Germany again, but work in Switzerland, preferably in a finance role like Controller. What are my chances? How should I prepare after graduation to attract Swiss employers, in terms of work experience? Can I already prepare, since I'm only a second year accounting student?
Any answer that can give me a slight clue on how to plan my return to Germany would mean a lot to me!
Danke :)
