Reaction:

First of all, I am satisfied with the author because he gives me a lot of information about many things that are not true or are myths in my career. I agree with the author about what he says about the future in accounting jobs. Accounting jobs are growing day after day all over the world, because businesses are depending an accounting to organiza the companies. More than that, many countries have established professional organizations to take care of accounting as a career and that thing can make the accounting role more clear. So, people will have a clear image before they start their jobs as an accountant. In my countries saudi arabia we have Saudi Organization for Certified Public Accountants (SOCPA) which is the only organization that authorized to deal with accounting principles, and it makes all roles for the accounting.

    I agree with the author about the benefits that he tells us about in this article but I prefer as a accountant external jobs for these two reasons. One reason is the independence, which the internal auditor cannot get enough ,but the external can get a lot because of the professional role. The other reason is the salary as the external auditor can get a higher one than the internal especilly in my country.
