5 Reasons You Should Be An Accountant

Hey, it’s been a while! Apologies for the radio silence over the past couple of weeks. I’ve been back home in the UK catching up with friends and family. But now it’s business as usual. One video each week. I may have gone a bit over the top with the metaphors in this one. But I was trying out something new and had a lot of fun making it! I’ve had a lot of positive experiences working in Accounting, however there have been some negative ones too. If you’d like to see a video about those, let me know!

I am watching this video for the 13th time, It is very very interesting James

Hello! I really needed your help. You are very good accountant. I couldn’t find a good Accountant like you around me. Can you please have 10 minutes interview through Zoom with me and my team about an accounting. We will have a presentation after 2 weeks. Future Job presentation at university. We have to have an interview with an experienced and professional Accountant like you. I would be more than happy if you say yes🙏🏻

when a poet becomes an accountant 😅

It looks that Australia is good place to learn accounting discipline.

Right you are! There are a lot of perks like pay and stability of the career, and demand. I constantly have to beat off recruiters with a stick when they come at me for jobs.

It's now 2023. Do you think accounting can be replaced by Ai or Robots?

My brother was in college for computer science, but he thought it was too boring so he changed to accounting.

You are waving your hands around far too much because you’ve read somewhere that to get people’s focus and attention to what you’re saying is to use a centralised hand gesture . But it looks plainly silly. .

Doing accounting in school. It is very interesting but is super complex - for me, anyway. I want to dive deep into it to really learn this skill.

I want to change career into managing the financials of the company such as a CFO, treasury, corporate financial accounting & strategic management. would u recommend someone coming from the data science/analytics background to do the CPA or go with an MBA in Finance?

I am still debating if I study accounting in Algonquin college for 2 years or not 😣 due to language barrier 😢 English is my 4th language and that’s my biggest issue when it comes to studying accounting 😔 plz any tips or advice?

Hello everyone! Here's my turbulent story about how I got into all that :))

I majored in Humanities, and all my life I thought I was going to work with texts and people. But then I discovered I do not like to write commercial text (SMM, content management, marketing) at all, and I would prefer a job where I have clear tasks. Yes, stressful at times maybe, but at least clear and straightforward (to release my creative side, I have my hobbies :)).

Recently I got curious about IT stuff, had a few career consultations, and considered system analysis and data analysis. Free courses allowed me to get a taste of what it's like to work with numbers and spreadsheets. Surprisingly, I discovered that it felt so calm and clear (compared to everything related to marketing and journalism, – many of my ex-groupmates work in those spheres, but I guess I have a different type of personality.)

Also, I think accounting as an area has been there for much longer than that whole IT stuff, and I’m not sure I would take my chances with the latter. And, as someone has already pointed out, there are many various firms, companies, and corporations that need accountants, so it doesn’t necessarily have to be an IT one, you’re not limiting yourself in such terms.

I know that in my city, Big4 offers summer internships (I even have a friend who took one and then worked there for 7 years), and my current plan is to learn everything I can about accounting and then apply for the internship. I didn’t have good Maths teachers at school, so I never really had a chance to get interested in all that. I guess I have a lot to catch up on there :)

The months of internship are going to be really hard money-wise (because these internships are either unpaid or very low-paid), but if I get a job offer after I complete the program, I hope it will become easier.

Do you think it's too late to pivot into accounting at 25 years old? I'm currently at junior level accounting role but didn't get my degree in accounting or finance. I also feel like it might not be worth pursuing accounting unless I get my CPA and the degree requirements will require additional schooling. Is there a way to be successful in accounting without the CPA license?

I want to go back to school but I’m not sure if I should be an Accountant or go into cyber security. I’ve never thought about being an accountant but I enjoy the repetition and learning how money works may help me personally in the long run.

I am from Serbia. I have a chartered accountant certificate. (I think it's called CPA in the United States and I don't know what it's called in Britain)
I studied accounting at the Higher School of Economics { College } because I love it. And I passed for the certificate because I love accounting.
The money I can earn as a certified accountant was not the reason for me to do accounting.
I can't imagine myself doing a job I don't like and that's why I chose accounting

It's awesome that your videos are so visual! Also happy to see you're also a Vancouverite!! Welcome to our city and I hope you love it.

Would you recommend Canada as a good place to migrate as an accountant?

I wish that I’d become economist when I was 16 too. I had this subject at school and I really was keen on. I took 1st place in my city (Russia, Novosibirsk) in the economic tournament despite the fact that I had never participated in school competitions before. I chose this profession because I saw that women which worked in this area (mothers of my friends) had constant salary and job. I really hope that this channel will help me improve my skills, especially on international level.
