After watching your videos I can't help but think that becoming a financial controller is much easier in Europe than in America. Well, at least in my country. I have seen 25 year olds becoming junior financial controllers in some smaller companies after only working as an auditor in big 4 for maybe ~4 years.

Thank you so so much for this. And to back you up on question 7 its absolutely true. Right now i feel like i need that big corporation experience because im all over the place. You said it exactly the way its happening for me.

Thanks, much appreciation from Nairobi, Kenya. The Q&A session was encouraging more so how you responded to various issues from different persons all over the world. You're an inspiration to my professional growth.

I definitely went into the accounting career path for the job stability and to provide for my loved ones. Sure didn't go into it for the passion of the content.

I was wondering could you sometimes make a video to advise how many years should I spend on my Senior billing level to be a Billing Manager. Are there any skills, attitudes, that I need to pay attentions to in order to get promotion? Thank you in advance!

[zazairemashvili]

If there are some professionals from overseas, but do not have the experience in US, dont worry. You did not loose a lot. You will be surprised, by the accounting level USA established. It sucks, unbelievable...

Hey Bill,

I work in accounts payable right now, but I do not want to be stuck here forever. What actions can I take to move up the ladder? Degrees? Other positions?

[jobsampath]
