Question

(One of many jobs for a professional accountant is a position of a Corporate Controller). why would you choose that job?, what are the advantages and disadvantages?

Answer 1

Being a professional accountant, I would definitely like to choose a position which suits my profession. Being a corporate controller Means I would be handling the entire system of accounting of my employer, which no doubt is a very big responsibility bestowed upon us. Being a corporate controller I would be able to exercise leadership skills as many people would be working under me as a team member. Also I would get the opportunity to know the views of my team memebrm also .this would help me to extend my knowledge.

However the disadvantage is that I would be just restricted to one field and that is probably accounting. So in that way I would be getting expertise in one area but will lack even the basic knowledge of other Areas.
