Career goals

Accounting is a very diverse field and there are numerous opportunities available to an accounting graduate much more if one gets a license as a Certified Public Accountant . Accountants also tend to have a very commendable salary rate and the title of a CPA is highly regarded by the society . I aspire to become a Certified Public Accountant because CPAs have many opportunities and these opportunities are available almost everywhere . You practically will not need to look for an employment the moment you get your license because job opportunities would literally be

knocking at your doorstep

I believe I have the necessary skills that will allow me to succeed in this field . Many believe that someone who wants to be an accountant must have exceptionally good math skills . This is rather a misconception Although math is indeed a necessary knowledge for an aspiring accountant , one needs only basic math skills for this field , the rest is analytical and critical thinking . This is the most necessary foundation for an aspiring accountant . I am not saying that I am bad in Math but analytical and critical thinking is where definitely one aspect that I excel at

Many want to pursue being a CPA because of a promising salary and various job opportunities but a number of these people give up along the way because accounting is really a difficult field of study theless , I am confident that I can cope with this and I would definitely not back down when I am already halfway there .

The good pay may be due to the great demand for CPA or maybe because of the diversity of the field , but for me , the salary would be a good driving force , but what is really important is that I would enjoy what I do which is a whole lot better . You enjoy your work and while earning a lot . Some say that the work of an accounting is very tiring especially during audit season , but that will not change my perception . I am determined to be a CPA and I would do this to the best of my abilities I did my research and I have already prepared for the worst

For one , I can always choose to be an auditor and scrutinize financial statements which could prove fulfilling on a moral aspect because as I earn my income , I would also be able to help the client in keeping its record accurate as well as help the government prevent misrepresentations of income which affects tax collections . As an auditor , I will be tasked to ensure the correctness of financial records which would benefit the greater public . If you want to take control of your time , self-employment is always a viable option in this field

The opportunity to be hired as an accountant is very high considering that the profession is very much in demand...
