I have been working as an auditor for two and a half years. I now have an offer on the table for a company that prepares XBRL filings for clients in various industries. I am leaning towards rejecting the offer for two main reasons. One, the work-life balance involved in the position does not meet my goals in that area. Two, I am uncertain if the skills involved in the position will transfer over well to another position.
I already talked to a former supervisor in the financial reporting field about the second issue, and she said that she was not sure if she would hire someone who only has experience with XBRL, because there is so much more involved in the financial reporting process.
I wasn’t sure where to turn for help from there, so I thought I’d post a question on this forum. My question is: Would experience in a career focused on XBRL be marketable when seeking out financial reporting career opportunities in the future?
