Dear Friends,

I would like to seek some guidance from you all regarding choosing CA as my career path. Please give me your valuable and practical advice. 

1. My current qualification is B.Com, LL.B. and have more than 4 years of total work experience in LPO and Corporates. Currently working in a MNC in Intellectual Property related domain. I will be turning 31 this year. I am already pursuing CS executive and have taken exams for module 2. My question to you all is if it's a good idea to pursue CA at this age considering the factors like age and future job prospects. As I am already working, I may not be able to go for trainings required during CA and have to settle for a dummy training.

The reasons why I want to join CA is:

1. I am interested in accounting and CA is a global career.

2. I am currently not satisfied in my present job and do not have hard core experience in litigation,drafting and corporate laws.

3. I want  a bright future for myself. Cannot continue to work at a lower package all my life.

 

Your guidance on my query will be highly appreciated
