When the time comes

February 17th, 2010 at 03:18 pm

When the time comes that I do leave my company, I think I'm going to seek out a career in auditing.

I've discovered that my interests are primarily related around auditing & discovering how the internet affects the way companies do business.

Virtual businesses pop up everywhere nowadays. It started with virtual e-tailers like Amazon & Blue Nile. But those places still have a main headquarters.

However, now we have work-at-home companies that have outgrown their "home" and are now completely virtual.

I'm interested in learning more about how accountants and auditors handle those challenges. Where people nowadays send contracts virtually through PDF files in email along with credit apps.

I'm also learning the challenge of trying to communicate to marketers that revenue retention is just as important if not more so than revenue generation.

There's a lot to learn out there and the internet has changed the way we do business & I'm completely curious to see how the accounting and legal field has adapted to those changes.

    I agree, auditing is very interesting. I like the aspects of finding mistakes...it's kinda like a treasure hunt. The only downside is that other areas of the company don't like audit...they think you are always out to get them.

    It is great that there are people with your kind of mind, because it leads to a big difference in keeping companies on the up-and-up! The good thing is that there is a need for auditors in virtually every field, from accounting and insurance to the federal government. It's job security! Good luck...
