Hello,

I have a Masters in Public Administration with concentration in Financial Management from a highly reputable school and have many years working in the finance and accounting departments in the government sector in Korea. However, since moving to the U.S. three years ago, I've not worked.

I will be taking my fourth (and final!) CPA exam soon.

I have been debating whether I should pursue a Masters in Accounting or a Masters in Taxation. Which is more marketable? Since I've not worked for three years, which would offer me more opportunities to land a good paying job?

Thank you in advance for your suggestions.

Hmmm, well, personally when I hire someone, I want that person to like what he or she is getting into. But if you're looking for money, you might want to look at the classifieds, check with Robert Half, etc. That should give you some idea of what others are offering.
