The Perfect Opportunity
One of my favorite hobbies is solving jigsaw puzzles. Accounting involves a puzzle of numbers that needs to be pieced together to answer a mystery. Two of my family members have a CPA certification and three other family members served in the military. The FBI offers a career in accounting that allows me to follow in my family's footsteps.
