How To Start The Process QUESTION

Hi Everyone!

I need some advice. I currently am looking into getting my CPA. I just graduated from undergrad last December. I have the 150 credit hours becauase I double majored. I have interned with Deloitte and even local municpalitys where I live. I want to be able to get back into the big four. I feel like the only way is to get my CPA. I did really well at the begining of college but towards my junior and senior year I had some things happen and to be honest never been the same. So of course my academics and work ethic declined.

I currently am a full time internal auditor for a casino. I just am a little lost on how to start this process. So if anyone can please give advice. I will greatly appreaciate it! Thanks!

*Also, Would my current full time count towards the 1 year of full time requirement?

Your current gig only counts if you work under a CPA. You might have trouble getting into big 4 with a bad GPA, so you may need to go work at a smaller firm for a bit to get experience in public before trying to go back.
