I have a BS degree in general business and in the fall semester of 2008 I returned back to the university to complete the certificate accounting program. This semester I am taking financial accounting I and tax accounting I. During the spring semester I plan to take financial accounting II and business law. Then I have four more accounting classes to complete in order the to obtain my accounting certificate. I am planning to start looking for an entry level part time or full time job in the accounting field during the summer of 2009. I am also a member of the accounting society at the university that I am attending. Please let me know what is the best way to start looking for an entry level accounting job and which accounting field is the best to choose in the beginning to get the needed experience? I prefer financial accounting. My accounting certificate program also prepares for CPA exam and do you think that it is a good idea to take the exam later on? In advance I am very thankful for your answers.
