RE: Job market and potential age discrimination?

["CB Casper" <knowone -at- surfy -dot- net>]

When taking the CPA exam, there is a different
exam for a "public" CPA as normally thought of,
than for a CPA that is licensed for work 
internal to a company only.

The internal license does not allow for work
with the general public as would be the case 
when we go to a CPA for our tax docs. It deals
with accounting practices specific for 
intra-company activites.

In this case, many years had passed, tax laws 
had changed a lot, and we moved to another
state. There is a different test for each
state as well. The CPA exam is a 3 day ordeal,
not something to be 'taken' lightly, along
with the hefty fees involved.
