If you don't ask me to go at length for reasoning to support my suggestions, these go as under
1)what next qualification shall i idealy get registered for ACCA/CIMA/CFA/ICAEW?
ICAEW is best if you wish to stick to the basic professional premise for longer run. However, if u wish to have a diversification then CFA is best.
2)whether i should stay in Firm or pursue career in industry ? what are the long term pros and cons of both?
Profession needs you to wait so long (8 to 15 years) to get to the desired level in terms of position as well earning; however, at the same time it gives exposure, respect and elevation far more than the industry. If some one clicks the appropriate position at industry, it as well is not a bad choice. However, the basic parameter to decide is the level of organization and the position being offered.
3) whether i should plan a carrer abroad ? or pakistan?
and if abroad can i enter into UK based of ACA ICAP?
If you wish to settle abroad Middle East is best followed by UK and Australia. At Australia, it is a bit costly to settle down. Yet, middle east is best as you can grow there with Pakistani CA very well. At UK and Aus you will have to add on something for getting good market acceptability.
4) where shall i begin my job search? how?
Right from the mother organization; if they need you; and/or the clients where you have worked and have some insight. Other choices are to contact seniors and friends in industry or profession.
