Real-Life CPAs
Proof that you will not be chained to a desk.
Years ago, someone started a rumor that accountants sit in a cubicle all day, crunching numbers in total isolation. But nothing could be further from the truth. As a CPA you’ll work with people from all over the place, with all kinds of interests beyond numbers. And they’ll be smart. Many of the most successful businesspeople got their start in accounting, from business owners to Chief Executive Officers.
We’ve gathered the proof. Click around and meet the CPAs you could be working with someday.
