What kind of advisory were you doing that was similar to audit? Current auditor with lots of advisory friends so I’m pretty familiar as well.

I see SOX implementation, M&A advisory, IT Advisory, etc. none of which I would consider similar to audit.

SOX readiness, as well as implementation, IT advisory, Internal Audit, Business Processes & Controls I did them all as part of “advisory” at green dot.

Very similar to audit, not sure why you think it’s so different, business controls are business controls the IT portion can be taught, internal audit/risk can be taught.

I touch a ton of M&A/deal work (mainly under ~$100M deals) as a head of finance for a private retailer, but again, it’s not all that different from audit.
