Masters in Accounting Interview

Since we’re all friends here, I wanted to share a little story with you. I recently got an email through the blog asking me to participant in an interview for Masters in Accounting to share some experiences about being an accountant and advice to people thinking about entering the profession or those early in their careers.

My first thought was this must be spam. My second thought was this sure would be a strange way to go about spamming/phishing someone…so I went to the link to see what was out there and then I went to LinkedIn to have a look at the person who sent the email (April Smythe, aka the interviewer). She seemed legit so I responded and got some more information about the project she was working on and her background. Both intrigued me so I agreed to participate and…yada yada yada…

You can see the final version of the interview here, and you can have a look at the other accountant interviews on the site here. And don’t forget accounting is, in fact, sexy. And if you’re one of the top 50 accountants on Twitter then that’s doubly true.
