Finally. Technology could have automated accounting almost fully years now. It was up to most governments around the world that didn't advocate for such a practice. Don't worry though clients still need a person explaining accounting and taxes to them. This will be the golden age for "accounting consultants"
I started to move into accounting coming from tech because of the shortage but it seems it might not be a real shortage. More like right-sizing for more efficiencies. I also don’t think I could suffer through the entry level stage at my age.
Sir, I believe you are severely misinformed in spite of whatever the "data" shows. The accounting shortage is a misconception and a scam. All of the big 4 have been laying people off. The reality is that there is NO SHORTAGE. And the culprit is NOT artificial intelligence (AI is for the hacks and hucksters). The true threat to accounting is OUTSOURCING!
Inspiring, for a former journalist with a background in computing at Stanford, aiming to combine the two skills, and have exhausted every cheap Coursera university course in accounting, finance, software engineering, and more abstruse topics such as Robotic Process Automation (RPA), and trying to minimize cost this is a good manifesto, the firm I worked for in the US ages ago went from Computer Associates to NetSuite, your podcast on the Intuit Suites challenge to NetSuite was invaluable in my ongoing formulation of job market re-entry. Thanks.

You're welcome. I guess I speak about accounting despite not being an accountant in the same way thay accountants speak about running a successful business despite not being entrepreneurs. It does transfer.
@@accountinginfluencers This is epic. An accountant is supposed to be high precision about nos. How come an expert accountant mis stated facts as 5 mins when it's actually 11 min video. 😂😅

There will always be a demand for accounting professionals who have people skills and can tell the stories behind the numbers.

It's a brave move!

entry level stage is basically sales support/data entry

Why are you talking about accounting when you have zero experience working as an accountant??? Thanks for wasting 5 minutes of my life.
