    Why do regular people think accountants have magical powers of deduction?

    Posted: 28 May 2019 05:59 PM PDT

    So I started bookkeeping for a new client this week. Pick up her bank statement & one of the first things I see is a random draw amount circled with a handwritten note beside it: "new bookkeeper, can you tell me what this is?"

    Sure, let me use my magical brain powers to figure out what YOU spent money on. Feel me anyone? 🙈

    Hi guys, I am starting my internship in FSO Tax next week. I know we are starting our orientation/training the first week. Does any of you know what do we do during those days at the orientation or what to expect during the whole day?

    Is a MBA program worth it for a CPA?

    Posted: 28 May 2019 04:57 PM PDT

    There is a MBA program targeted at working professionals in my City and I was wondering what other people think of the value of a MBA when you already have CPA. I currently work in Audit but do not plan on staying in public accounting forever. What do people think of the cost/benefit of a MBA program?

    Which one of you is this?

    Posted: 28 May 2019 06:03 AM PDT

    I did it guys!

    Posted: 28 May 2019 07:56 AM PDT

    I just wanted to thank everyone on here who helped me get through a grueling ~8 months of constant applying, interviews and rejections! I finally secured my first Staff Accountant position at a F500 and I am so excited to leave my old Jr. Accountant position behind. Thank you guys for all the advice and sharing your own stories to show me I was not the only one who struggled. Being 26 and having a non-accounting undergrad really made me feel like I was not fit (or desirable) for a Staff role, but I'll be done my MAcc soon and hope to obtain my CPA at some point (Congrats to all who finished CPA exams recently!). Thanks again guys!

    REG Retake

    Posted: 28 May 2019 07:52 PM PDT

    How long would you recommend to study second time for REG if studying full time? The first time I studied for 6 weeks with Becker and got a 68 but I was also in school. My report said the sims was what did me in and I'm not exactly sure how to study for those since they're always a crapshoot. I figured four full weeks of pounding MCQs?

    Quickbooks P&L Problem

    Posted: 28 May 2019 09:11 PM PDT

    I hope this is okay here if not let me know. So recent I changed some product over to inventory but it is now throwing off my whole P&L. I want the COGS to come from a bill but it is coming from my invoice and I have no idea what to do. It is saying I am losing on all my jobs when I know I am not. for example it is saying I have $6,000 COGS when I only have $4,000.

    For the CPA Core Modules (Canada) are exam multiple choices either right/wrong or are there C/RC/NC/NA options?

    Posted: 28 May 2019 07:33 PM PDT

    In an exam you're given 4 options for the multiple choice, is there only 1 correct option or can you still get an RC by choosing the 2nd best option?

    Can anyone give any tips for big 4 valuations case study interview? It’s for a post CA qualified role. Written case study face to face with calculator (no laptop)

    Posted: 28 May 2019 03:45 PM PDT

    They are accepting auditors to apply for the role and acknowledged that they don't expect vast amounts of technical knowledge. I'm hoping for a DCF type question.

    This is a UK based role.

    Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

    What types of jobs should I realistically be looking for?

    Posted: 28 May 2019 05:02 PM PDT

    Hey everyone,

    I just graduated a few weeks ago with my bachelor's, but (as evidenced by this post's title) I don't have a job lined up. I've always had a huge case of imposter syndrome, so while I was in school I shied away from career fairs and other opportunities to secure a job before graduating. Now looking for jobs I feel a bit lost. A little bit more about me:

    - Graduated from a state school with a 3.7 cumulative GPA.

    - Not much relevant experience, except for the one semester I worked as an accounting tutor a few years ago.

    - 26 years-old, so a bit older than normal for a college graduate.

    - Currently have 132 credits, but I'm eligible to sit for the CPA exam in my current state and the states I'm looking for work in.

    - Prefer to stay away from public, but I'll take what I can get at this point.

    - Would like to move out of state as soon as possible, but I'm willing to remain in my current location for the time being if necessary. I'd just prefer not to be tied down here for multiple years.

    I feel like I'm kind of in limbo here. I'm not sure A) What kind of job/salary I can realistically expect to land, and B) The location in which I should be looking for these jobs. Should I just be looking in the places I want to move, and would I even be able to support myself with an entry level salary? Should I be looking for a temporary job here? Should I work some non-accounting job and knock out at least one section of the CPA? Because I'm not following a more conventional path of having a public internship and then an offer right out of school, I'm not really sure what I should be looking for at this point. Thanks everyone.

    Resume/Career Advice - Just Passed the CPA

    Posted: 28 May 2019 10:08 PM PDT

    Hey friends,

    Found out last score release that I am officially finished with the CPA exams!! Celebrated with my family/friends last week and I'm ready for the next chapter in my career.

    As for my CPA licensure: I'm only at 120-123 credit hours with my undergraduate degree, so I do need to take another year of school to get the 150 credit hours (I'm mainly looking into MST or MTAX graduate programs). I would apply right now if I can find the right program that offers a GMAT waiver OR suck it up and study the GMAT intensely for a month. In addition, my experience is questionable since I did not take a normal path after graduation. I've progressed into a staff accountant and I'm in a fairly unique position right now that I do cargo claims along with the typical accounting duties (AR, AP, Bank Recs, forecasting, expense reports, etc). Most of the time, I've worked under Controllers, CFOs, and middle-management.

    I do know what career path I want now though. I want to work in tax, specifically work for the IRS one day. However, I did not take my undergrad as serious as I should have (Pretty much all Bs and one C each semester for my Junior/Senior years. Otherwise, all As and one B each semester at community college). But during my undergrad, I did take a graduate level tax course because I enjoyed my first tax course so much. The class was around 40 people, and I was one of the four undergrads in the class. It was by far the most enjoyable class I took and still reflect back to that class to this day. I'm currently 26, turning 27 this year and in a fairly comfortable position in my life. I'm currently keeping all options open for what I do next; let that be a better job, graduate school, or even take some time off to travel a bit with my wife. Any advice on my resume or my next steps are are much appreciated!
