    Subbed! Im almost going into my junior year at university as an accounting major. I have been doing heavy research on tax vs audit especially in the big 4 firms because it is my dream to get employed at one of those firms after graduating. Tax seems interesting to me, it’s so nice to find so many tax and audit youtubers. TH-cam is such an excellent resource ☺️

      Currently a junior-year at university, definitely leaning towards Tax! So where did you end up and what practice? :)
      If you have any advice for what your experience was, I'm all ears!! Good luck!

    One of the most appealing part for me w/o oversimplifying is:
    The ability to add more concrete value to the clients. eg. I am applying my knowledge & skills about the Tax laws to the Client's situation & showing the client that they're about to save x amt of ₹ if they follow our advice.
    I believe that's something that the clients really see value in. The fact that there's a tangible no that they can grasp & that they actively seek to come to us to pay for such advice.

    Please keep making more videos! Haha its so hard to find tax accountants on youtube and this is super informative.
    Just curious, do you think an experience at an income tax preparation place like H&R Block/Liberty Tax would be valuable if i want to work in a public accounting firm later on?

    • @Essays4College
      @Essays4College 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Probably not that much. The H&R Block/Liberty Tax clients are very very basic compared to tax work at big public accounting firms. Totally different clients.

    Hello. I am a student from PH and I am on the process of crafting my career path. I'm considering audit as my future career but I'm quite worried about certain blogs saying that eventually, auditors will not be needed in the workplace as we progress with regards to technologies. What's your opinion about this? I hope you find this question a good content for your videos, many of us needs to be enlightened on this matter before making a decision. Thank you.
