    so when we become a cpa. is there even a break time or vacation and is it true that cpa will only cooped up in their rooms and offices and no bonding with other people

      Great question! While this answer will be different depending on what area of the profession you work in, CPAs enjoy breaks, vacation and/or paid time off. There are different busy seasons, so while work hours may increase during certain times, there is usually also a less busy time. A common misconception about CPAs is that they are cooped up in their offices. Most of the CPAs that I work with would say they communicate a ton and are out and about (either at clients or working in teams). I encourage you to reach out to CPAs in your area (or contact the Indiana CPA Society - info@incpas.org) to connect with a CPA or two and learn more about their experiences in the profession!

      Celeste Carmona They're challenging (in a good way) and require a good amount of study time. Accounting is the kind of field that unless you practice what you learned, you'll forget. But they're awesome. I love it. :)

      Hi Adam, CPAs bring a variety of skills to the table. Communication skills, decision making skills, being a problem solver... I'd encourage you to speak with CPAs to see what kinds of skills they find helpful in their role. They could also probably offer some great tips on becoming more organized. Of course, you can always reach out to the Indiana CPA Society (info@incpas.org).
