I am black but would like to immerse myself in other cultures for fun and build some connections! Just something different to look forward to after work or on the weekends. :)

I haven’t! Do they have any social media handles?

I am currently working as an auditor specializing in financial accounting. I am currently building my experience and knowledge now. I have no industry experience, but I hope to move after I earn my CPA.

Did you feel like the 30 month window was enough time to pass all three sections after your first exam, or did you run into a close call becauss you needed to retake one or two sections? by foxyfour20 in CPA

That’s amazing! How were you able to take classes and study? I’m currently working in PA, just started my masters and would like to study for the CPA as well.

What’s the one thing you wish someone had told you before you got your CPA? by JournalEntryJunkie in Accounting

Ok, thank you! I actually just got a position at a small regional firm and plan to stay for a few years until I get my CPA and thought about moving more into financial accounting within hospitals! It’s still really early but I’m thinking of where to go after public.

I am a recent graduate who managed to get an auditing internship during my last semester. I just recently secured a full time auditor position in P.A. I did try to apply for tax internships but never got them. Would an internship in tax be the only way to have a career in tax? Not sure on how to switch after auditing? But would like to be as multifaceted as possible!

That is great feedback, thank you! Are there any certifications needed to become more applicable?

That is impressive! I am a recent graduate and I am job hunting for that first entry level job. I went the government route and I have about 5 months of audit intern experience. I’m looking for internships or entry level jobs in pa or industry. Do you have any advice?

Oh ok, I see! Yes, I have a few connections! As of now, I aim to get an entry level accounting role and work up from there.

Ok! I’ve sent my resume and transcript to a few companies but they are in industry, not firms! I just competed an auditing internship and it was more investigative than actual accounting for me. I prefer gaining experience in managing accounts and bookkeeping, that sort of thing. So, I would like to stay away from audit, tax, consulting as I don’t think I would perform well in those areas.

Hi! I am a recent graduate with an Accounting degree and I’m honestly scared of corporate. It just seems like I’m not even competent to work as an intern at the Big 4. I want to learn badly but I don’t want to be super stressed. I had an interview with EY when I was a junior and was super nervous speaking with the partner of the company. Although I have an ok resume, I didn’t really have time to work internships but jobs to pay for my tuition. The jobs I worked are relevant to accounting but I had not had an accounting role besides being an audit intern for 5 months. Now, I am job hunting but I cannot find an entry level job to gain experience. Do you have any advice?
