Director, MS / PAccy & Professor of Accounting
Responsible for advising accounting majors on career opportunities and the importance of a graduate degree.
My career was multi-facet: United States Government Accountability Office (GAO), Financial Accounting Standards Board, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, and education (Rutgers University, University of Hartford and Marist College). My typical work day in my current role is preparing to teach the assigned classes, advising / counseling students and administering the graduate program. Typical day at other jobs varied with the firms' missions.
Here's the first step for everyone
Identify the firms you to which you wish to be considered for employment; obtain information on the firms so you are prepared for the first interview; if you are able, have someone knowledgeable of the profession give you a mock interview with a critique, and when you get the interview, be prepared and confident and believe in yourself!!!
