I have thought about both audit and tax, would you say one is easier than the other or is it personal preference?

    Tax is way cooler.

    From a recruitment perspective, all roles have difficulty and challenge, it matters more which you feel more passionate about!

    I am a Tax Partner so would say that of course. Tax is perhaps more varied whilst audit gives you more insight into how a business runs and may prepare you more for going into industry.

    Okay, thank you. I have done tax work in my last 2 years of studying but audit only just came up this year. Have enjoyed both however not sure which one I enjoy more or feel more passionate about.

    It could be useful, however it's important to be technically competent for the role, and this often comes more from experience!
