Message: Ive read some of the posts here and you people look like you know what your talking about so here i am. I wil be graduating with a BS in Accounting next month! Some of my joy has gone down the drain however because im more confused now than i ever have been. I browse monster, hotjobs, the local paper, but every1 wants experience! I mean ive worked but i have no real life GL experience or financial statement prep experience and everything else they ask for?? how do i go about finding my first "real" job?? I have to pass the cpa exam but what review course is best for me? I thought school would prepare me and id be ready to jump into the real world, but here i am, 22 years old with a degree, not knowing what to do with it?! what would you do? what did you do? Im a first generation graduate i dont have many experienced people around me to give me adivce, what would you do? what did you do? Thanx
