Big 4 audit here. CFA is useless to them and hardly anyone knows what it is. While passing L1/L2 might be impressive to some, the real credential needed in the field is the CPA. Period.
Their typical recruit is still in their Junior/Senior year of undergrad and show interest in taking the CPA exam. Those undergrads then do either Spring or Summer internships with the respective firms. After graduation, they start in the Fall. Otherwise, they do direct hires from accounting grads who did not have an internship.
CFA can help raise some eyebrows and set you apart. But at this point networking is most likely your best option. The recruiting process is pretty standard unless you have an in. Shame really. Some firms are having a recruiting shortage because they cut jobs too deep during 08-09. Anyone from a ranked accounting program is getting an offer.
But like someone mentioned, the longer you stay in, the more typecast you become. But a job's a job I guess.
