In 2003, he joined Padilla and Company LLP, New York, as an audit staff and became a manager in 2005. During 2005 to 2008, he initiated audit documentation process improvement by making it more efficient while using less resources and complete.

In 2008, Czar went back to the Philippines to lead the family accounting practice, Vallejera Accounting, that had been in operation since 1984 led by his father who is also a CPA in the Philippines. There are four CPAs in his family in the Philippines. The firm served small businesses in various industries such lending services, realty, professionals, retailers, schools and others. The firm provided accounting, tax preparation, payroll, accounting system setup, forecasting, financial statement preparation and audits.

While managing the firm, he was also an adjunct accounting professor in Xavier University - Ateneo de Cagayan, Philippines and Lourdes College, Philippines.

In 2013, Czar came back to join again Padilla and Company LLP as an audit manager. Since his return, he focused in improving the firms processes starting with the organizational process flow. He initiated the conversion of its audit documentation system from physical workpapers to a paperless workpaper system. He improved the firm’s audit process to prepare and adapt in the constantly changing business environment. He mentored and trained his staff of all levels and many reached success in their careers. He led the firm on any new audit engagements with new industry or type of audit. He became a partner of the firm in 2017.
