the short answer is there is no relevancy whatsoever. you are better of doing a CMA to get into auditing.

I totally understand your concerns though. I have a bachelor and a masters in finance, plus i passed cfa level 1, I no experience and had no breakthrough in anything related, not even an unpaid trainig. Its been like this for years, so i have finally settled into an unrelated job to pay rent and im still looking for a break.

the only way out of your dilemma is to network with people. i personaly really suck at that so ill have to improve on it i guess. good luck
