Your method of selection demonstrates more clearly than anything that you made the right choice. It is so quantitative and rule based, unlike teaching which requires thinking about quality and how to set your own rules.
I recently dropped out of my Bachelor of science in mathematics because it wasn't what i expected math to be. It became all theory proving and it wasn't fun for me. So I'm planning to switch to a business degree instead, and accounting is what I'm looking at because it deals with numbers, but not to the extreme theory proving of mathematics where it wasn't fun anymore.
Pretty cool, i love applied math, it just make sense. this reminds me of a quantitative methods exercise. We take survey data, convert qualitative data into quantitative data so we can measure what's going on.
I feel like the scores should count for more the further down you go; you said each one is more important than the last. Maybe teaching would actually have outscored accounting if you had done that.. but very informative nonetheless!
I'm an Elementary school teacher and I'm pretty sure you scored teaching wayyy to high on stress levels. We have to write work plans which often take all weekend and are always applying new interventions in learning plus maintaining contact with parents and professional development opportunities...plus classroom management...🤣
I said right away...on the stress level points..he has obviously never been a teacher. The only thing that might make teaching more of low stress are the vacations.
The way you explain accounting frauds is great. Please try to make a video based on the NMC healthcare scandal if possible. Thank you for the work you do 😊
I’m not great with people but I like math and numbers. I can deal with people if I have to but I like working alone. Is this a good career field for introverted people.
Hey question I'm really looking forward to a career in accounting but 4 years of schooling is really deterring me from making the jump. However, I noticed an online accounting program at wgu which would be really favorable to me. However, I am unsure how hiring managers will look at an online accounting degree
I’m enjoying the videos quite a bit. I was wondering if you could give me your opinion. I’m 33, is it too late to get my bachelors and move into an accounting career? It would be a complete career change.
Accounting was a 2nd career (a change) for me, and I entered it at 27 so slightly older than normal. I didn't find it challenging. Also, I see folks in their 50s doing it. I think you will have a slight disadvantage due to late entry, but shouldn't stop you. hope this helps
@@TheFinancialController how were you able to enter accounting? I’m looking for a career change as well and am considering a post grad diploma, which is one year, compared to a normal bachelors.
I like your video, I was thinking of majoring in accounting but I have a concern. Do you think accounting jobs will decrease or it will be harder to enter accounting due to automation taking over the more routine tasks? I understand that an accountant still has to manage the automation but wouldn't you need less people to do that?
I don't think automation is a danger. The nature of the work will simply shift from data entry to more compliance/strategy type of work such as implementing new accounting standards (ASC 606 and 842 for example), plus more financial analysis work. I think jobs will pay more because we will be more productive with automation.
