[日期:2006-06-11] 来源:ChaseDream【签证专区】 作者:capital77 [字体: ]

Why do you want to study in USA? (Why do you want to go to USA?)

I will learn the Master of Science in Accountancy.

Key point:

  1. no systematic advanced accounting education background
  2. xxx is famous NA corporate, the management is comprised by foreigner and people who has abroad study background. So if I want to be promoted as a manager in near future, to obtain the master of accounting in USA is necessary.
  3. have worked for 4 years, need updated knowledge to help me improve

I have worked for almost 4 years in accounting field, more than 2 years as auditor in xxx, 1 year as financial analyst in xxx. When I was an auditor to do IPO project, I need know US General Accept Accounting Principle (GAAP) to do audit and make adjustment. Now I am a financial analyst in a famous North America enterprise, and my main job is reporting and planning. I need to analyze and investigate financial statements, which are made according to US GAAP. I realize that study Master of accountancy in US is the best choice for my future career goal – to be a successful professional in accounting and management. Another reason is after 4 years working, I found that I am experiencing a tough period in my career, I have possessed real business word practice experience, while as my undergraduate major is not accounting, what I exactly need now is systematical advance accounting education to help me to understand more deeply what I have learned from practice and build up the whole picture about the business and accounting system of the company. I am sure to study Master of accountancy in US is the necessary and important step in my career.

What do you do now? (What is your job?)

Now I am financial analyst in xxx. I am currently responsible for financial reporting & planning analysis, and supervising the overall Financial Reporting / Planning Information System. Through my analysis of detailed financial data and accounting treatments, I gradually learnt broad business knowledge and developed a sense of xxx’s business environment, which gave the instruction to financial planning. Financial planning is the kernel of managerial accounting and the crucial financial control to management to achieve its overall objective.

Why you leave xxx to join xxx?

After experiencing the nearly three years as an external auditor, I changed my angle of view by studying business and financial status from the internal side of an enterprise, by which I can focus on certain financial structure and business models. So I joined xxx as a financial analyst.

Please tell me big 4 accounting firms' name?

KPMG; PWC; Deloitte; Ernst & Young

Why do you choose University of xxx?

Key point:

  1. provide education chance to those who did not possess accounting undergraduate degree.
  2. practice curriculum and real-world business experience through intensive leadership retreats, volunteer activities, community-building activities and professional workshops.
  3. excellent faculty and student, ever give me great help. They are so enthusiastic, which made me impressive.

xxx provides focused, in-depth study of accounting and it prepares students for the full range of opportunities and responsibilities in the accounting profession. There is few university will provide MSA to the applicant who did not possess related undergraduate degree. Fortunately, xxx is one of them, and I am so happy that I can pursuer my master of accounting degree there. The most attractive points of MSA in xxx are that xxx’s students can get a real-world business experience through intensive leadership retreats, volunteer activities, community-building activities and professional workshops. It is that point which mostly interests me because I believe that just learning but not using knowledge and theory is worthless. So I gave up the opportunity of being recommended for a Master’s program but chose to work upon my graduation three years ago. Now what I need exactly is the advanced practical accounting and business knowledge, which can help me understand deeply what I have learnt from these years' practice in the real business world and can definitely contribute to my future career development. I am quite sure that the seasoned guidance of your quality faculty and the practical belief of the program will quickly put me on track towards my established goal.

What is your plan after graduation? Why you do not stay in USA? Why you come back to China? You have earned high salary in China now, why do you think you can get higher salary after coming back to China?

My long term career goal is to be successful in accounting. I plan to come back China after graduation to pursue my goal. I would like to become an audit manager in big 4 accounting firm or to be a reporting and planning manager in company. As an audit manager I have chance to deeply comprehend different industry clients’ business and accounting situation and provide accurate financial information to public, while reporting & planning manager more focus on certain financial structure and business models and the report group is the important supporting department for management to achieve its overall objective. These two kinds of job are all interesting which are attractive to me. I believe with my excellent working and abroad study experience, I can succeed in China in near future.

More and more international companies come into China, they need localized accounting professional with US accounting background to analysis financial data fulfill their reporting requirement and provide the specific financial supporting. Big 4 audit firm also need such kind of professionals to provide the service to multinational enterprises. However, in China there is a shortage of professionals who have both Chinese accounting and American accounting background.  When I return back to China after graduation, I have US accounting knowledge plus previous Chinese working experience; it is easily for me in China to find a position of manager in Big 4 audit firm or international company.

Why don't work some years in USA after graduate?

Need start from scratch

Take audit as example. Even if I get the offer from some audit firm after graduate, I have to start from the bottom level. While if I come back to china, I believe with my previous working experience and US study background, I can find senior position or manager position more easily in China than in USA.

Why don’t you apply Chinese University?

American Education more focuses on practice, while Chinese education main point is basic and advance knowledge. I would like to choose American education, which combine real world experience and knowledge tightly. It is my conclusion made by my own study experience. My undergraduate major is Enterprises Management. But it is really so comprehensive and theoretic that I can not comprehend deeply without real business experience. After graduate and these years working, I found I have expressive understanding of the knowledge I have ever learned. I believe I can get what I need in American advance education system.
