2. Interview Questions

2.1 Why did you choose to attend your college/University?

I believe nothing in this world can succeed if accountability never drove it that is why I attended Muhlenberg College to study Accounting and International Studies. I choose this college because managed to bridge my future inspirations, accounting and international studies. Understanding accounting, in an international context is beautiful because the world is currently experiencing its best face of civilization, where mass consumption and international trade dominate the industry.

2.2 What clubs and organizations you have participated while you were at college?

While during college, I participated in various indoor and outdoor games. I first tried balling sports, with soccer being my favorite; however, I found great interests in Wrestling. During college years, I became the wrestling team captain assisting in the development of professional wrestling activities in school. I personally love wrestling because it fills the remains gaps that are left hanging in my life. For instance, wrestling helps me relieve stress, be athletic and know how to tackle challenges in a mechanical way.

2.3 What are the three most important things that you have learned from your college?

I have learnt many things during my college years. However, the three most important things that I have learnt were socialization, academics and professionalism. I have realized the innate power of socializing and creating positive networks, precisely how they influence my career and future life. Secondly, I take academics seriously, because I view them as an extension of what theology attempts to introduce. I have also appreciated the importance of professionalization, which involves crafting schemes that will help me generate operating formula.

2.4 What companies you have applied when you were a student?

As a study still influenced so much by sporting activities, I applied jobs in local areas such as Gymnasiums and Golf Course. I also worked as bouncer for a group of dancers who needed my professional skills. However, as I was approaching forth year, I realized that I needed a professional and decent job one that would best suit my expectations in the field accounting. I applied a job as Personal Finance columnists in local newspaper. My column did not go for long as I began regurgitating on the same topics.

2.5 How is your firm different from other accounting firms?

As notified before, I am currently for Price Waterhouse Coopers as an auditor. I have to say getting to this level of financial administrator and auditor has not been easy. However, during my column developments and later my blogger, I focused predominantly in auditing, principally focusing it on investment decisions. That said, I have to say that my accounting firm is different from others because of the vision, mission statement as well as the corporate strategy. PWC is the second largest coming behind Deloitte, third comes EY and KPMG group fourth. Our operations are in close to 157 countries in 756 locations worldwide with close to 223,000 employees and have operations in North America and the Caribbean in Western Europe. The company global revenues skyrocketed to the $35 billion dollars. Although our rivals are in the similar scale, our firm internal structure is convincingly different because we have been involved in responsible business.

2.6 How is your life and work balance?

Accounting is a demanding career; however, as a Wrestler I enjoy everything, which involves balancing life and work life. I am currently single but I am strongly engaged to a woman I intend to marry. I am a regular 8 am to 5pm individual; however, I prefer carrying work to home during weekdays so that I have enough spare time during Fridays and weekends. This way, it is possible for me to meet my relatives and friends including my fiancee.

2.7 What is your career path like?

My career path is full of highs all the time. Each time, my manager expects new quality threshold, while handling assignments that are more concrete. I do not have a professional paper license from the Certified Public Accountant body; however, I still play an important role in auditing. Since my boss realized that I lack this professional license, yet I am qualified, she has been channeling a lot of work to my desk. I am engaged in many business trips, meeting many clients in the United States.

2.8 Do you enjoy your work now?

I enjoy my work a lot, my offices, our team, my dressing, and the numerous business trips. More so, I enjoy what I did, going through various financial statements on a daily basis. Most of our colleagues are already listed co...
