Passing the CPA exams is when you study hard, if you can't study or you don't have time for your studies I'd advise you get yourself a help like Mr Dylan.

I don’t know how honestly you can answer this since your company might see, but if you could go back in time, would you still choose accounting? Do you see a long term financial gain from this career? Or just getting by?

in busy season what is your workout schedule like? i start my first busy season next year and i want to start getting ready😅

That’s a nice office space. I feel like some other office spaces seem so depressing. lol

if you don't mind me asking, whats the salary for someone in your position?

Could u make a video on how you got into the big four if you don't mind? And plus, are u permanent resident or citizen?

thank you for this video. Really enjoyed it

the leadership conferences are organized by the companies and you apply for them like you would for internships but it's meant for sophomores in college

Should one go into accounting before getting into investment banking and any buy-side finance role, should one be considering accounting if he can't afford to go for an MBA or even a master's in finance?

Doing CPA along with accounting can help me to land in Mergers and Acquisitions and then in the front-end office of IB,?

Would love to know more about the type of leadership conferences you attended? We’re they strictly accounting industry conferences?

@leoxlsb

Ай бұрын

They were company specific leadership conferences. So you would apply to them freshman/sophomore year like an internship but the conference is only for 2-3 days and they typically give you an internship offer after. Its also a great resume booster to apply for internships the following year

As a freshman finance major, what resonated with you to go with accounting?
