What is better than doing something you love and enjoy for the rest of your life, a career that brings out the best in you and will let you demonstrate your best qualities and skills?
Finding graduation day just a few weeks away, I initiated my search of different careers that might interest me: interior designing and accounting. Peculiarly, these two careers are totally different. I love interacting with diverse individuals who can offer advice and critique my work with suggestions to improve it. Being creative and achieving a unique and fantastic final piece of work is also enjoyable.
In interior designing I found an interest because there is an opportunity to meet many people and use creativity in order to improve someone’s room or home. I also enjoy math; I believe I am a good mathematician. I enjoy the challenge and having the task of solving long problems because it’s all a process that needs to be followed. At the end knowing that I was able to solve the problem is very rewarding. Solving problems and being analytical is what piqued my interest into accounting. Researching in depth, I concluded that I would take a shot at accounting. I know that this is something I will enjoy doing for the next 10 years because there are people from all around the world who are involved in the business field and I will have the opportunity to meet some day. Accounting compliments my personality and fulfills my expectations and I know that I will be able to demonstrate my interpersonal and math skills in this awesome job.

Get an internship in accounting before you dive into it. That’d be my advice. Make sure you like it before you commit to the educational requirements and the long work days.
