Conduct an interview with someone in the accounting (or finance) profession who works in an area in which you are interested. For example, if you are interested in auditing, interview an auditor. If you want to work in nonprofit, interview a nonprofit accountant or CFO. Learn about their career, such as why they decided to work in that area, what they like and dislike about their work, what certifications they have and why, etc. Use the interview as an opportunity to learn more about the field you are studying and wish to work in after graduation.

An activity that you plan to participate in that will enhance your career knowledge, you may ask your instructor if you may use this as a Career Development assignment opportunity.
