A Bit of Research

Today, I've started researching the degree in Accounting that I've been pursuing and have found some very interesting things. I discovered that the atmosphere in which an accountant would work in is that of a very friendly and people based on. I would enjoy a working place like that because I'm a people person and enjoy meeting new people often.

 I read through a book called Great Jobs for Accounting Majors ed II by Jan Goldberb which provided extreamly helpful tips on what to do after I graduate with my degree. It describes various ways to prepare resumes and things of that sort. Also, it had interviews with some people who have been an accountant for many years which is great to get a feel as to how the life of an accountant truly is.

I'm currently writing questions for a few interviews that I will conduct with some proffesors around my school who are working as an accountant. This will be very helpful to me in my pursuit of my degree and will allow me to get a better understanding of what actual accountants do.

  1. I had to write 20 interview questions and answer them for my business communications class (I'm majoring in finance) and I had to write 10 questions for the interviewer. It helps a lot to have prepared answers in an interview rather than sitting their like an idiot trying to recall a story about a time you succeed or something like that.
