Characteristics Related Web Sites "The worst crime against
working people is a company which fails to operate at a profit."
Samuel Gompers "Business is a good game-
lots of competition and a minimum of rules. You keep score with
money." Atari founder Nolan Bushnel Accountants provide the
information necessary to determine and evaluate the present and projected
economic activities of organizations. They provide financial services
to individuals, business entities, not-for-profit organizations, and
government at all levels. Professional accountants develop and apply
their skills in auditing, taxation, management policy, information systems,
computer operations, and many other areas. Many occupations today
require a college educated individual who can write and speak well, solve
problems, learn new information quickly and work well with others on a
team. This means that college graduates use their education in a wide
variety of fields, and your future career may relate as much to your personal
career interests, work values and transferable skills as your specific
academic major. However, the following list contains a representative
sample of job titles of former graduates with an Accounting major. Use
this as an idea list, and remember that it represents some,
but certainly not all, of the careers you might consider.
Students obtaining employment immediately upon graduation are usually
those with the best college records and a willingness to relocate to find a
job. Some of these jobs also require education beyond a bachelors'
degree.
