- 6Why is corporate industry accounting so boring after public practice?Corporate roles lack the variety of high-stakes advisory engagements, replacing them with tedious recurring issues, routine deadlines, and the exhaustion of pretending to be busy. This monotony leaves professionals feeling unfulfilled and stuck waiting for occasional crises just to find mental stimulation.
- 2Will a two-year career break hurt my chances of returning to teaching?A two-year gap early in a teaching career raises concerns about resume continuity, keeping registrations active, and securing recent supervisor references. Teachers stepping away also worry whether returning is worth it given the stress of public education compared to corporate roles.
- 2Should I keep old roles on my resume?Dropping older roles lets you highlight continuous recent experience and keeps the resume simple if you haven't written one in a while. However, it leaves a large gap, making it hard to decide whether to just stick to recent work or add older jobs back in.
