Employment prospect direction of accounting major

1, domestic enterprises: large demand, poor treatment and poor development.

This piece has the greatest demand for accounting talents, and it is also the biggest employment direction for accounting graduates at present. Many small and medium-sized enterprises in China, especially private enterprises, only need to find "Mr. Accountant" for accounting positions, and do not need professionals with financial management and analysis skills. In addition, most of these companies have fairly rudimentary financial supervision and control systems.

2, foreign companies: good treatment, professional study.

Most foreign-funded enterprises have higher post treatment than domestic-funded enterprises. More importantly, the financial management systems and methods of foreign-funded enterprises are relatively mature, and new employees are generally trained for a period of time. One of the reasons for high work efficiency is that the division of labor is meticulous, and you can learn only one aspect of knowledge in the responsible position.

Although this skill is very professional, it is not good for the whole career development process, because it is difficult to gain comprehensive financial control, analysis and other experience. More follow-up training opportunities are another reason why foreign companies are very attractive. Financial management is also an experienced and knowledgeable profession, and the training opportunities provided by enterprises are different from listening to teachers in schools, which is more practical and applicable.

3. Accounting firms: the difference between small firms and large foreign-funded firms.

All firm work has a characteristic, that is: tired! Accounting firms, big or small, have heavy tasks, but the difference is that small firms may have low wages, many chores and overtime.

But you can really learn a lot in the company, even in a small company. Because of the manpower problem, you must communicate with an audit project from beginning to end, including the submitting unit, so as to fully exercise your ability. The big place is to hone team spirit and international accounting standards, professionalism and will.

4. Financial consultation: the rising sunshine profession

Students who have been to job fairs in banks and other financial institutions should know that the demand for personal financial consulting posts is slowly expanding, and because of the increase of social investment channels and the reform of the security system, financial consulting services will surely enter the lives of more urban white-collar workers. The demand growth point of this kind of talents should be in social investment and financial consulting service institutions.

5. Civil servants and teachers: more stability and less development.

Accountants who are admitted to civil servants or recruited as teachers in colleges and universities, like other majors, have the advantages of stability and little pressure, but they also have the disadvantage of difficult development.
