The beginning of my study in the Faculty of Accountancy: I was a kid from the countryside who wanted to study in Bangkok, but my family’s financial situation was not very high, so I had to try to find a way to continue my studies at the university level. It was around the same time that my high school offered me a scholarship to study for free until I graduated with a bachelor’s degree, and I was lucky enough to get that scholarship. I chose to study in the Faculty of Accountancy at SPU. During my studies, I participated in many faculty activities, all of which I could apply to my work. I also went to do an internship in the auditing field at KPMG in Laos, a company that many people dream of working for. I discovered that I wanted to be a certified public accountant (CPA).
After graduating with a bachelor’s degree, I started working in the auditing field at DIA International Auditing Co., Ltd., where I had to verify the accuracy, completeness, and value presentation in financial statements. In my work, I had to have the ethics of an accounting professional, such as independence, fairness, honesty, and confidentiality of clients. I had to understand the working system of the business that I was auditing to find any errors that might occur. I had to study and update accounting standards regularly because the financial statements had to be in accordance with accounting standards. You might think it was difficult, but when you actually start working, you will enjoy the work because it is not a boring line of work. There are always new things for us to learn and develop ourselves. And to be an auditor, you have to study hard because you have to pass 6 subjects. You have to be diligent and disciplined in reading books. I am trying too. ^^
What I want to tell you is that you should gain a lot of experience at the university. Joining the activities with the faculty will make it easier for you to adjust to others and have good relationships. When you graduate, you will be able to adjust to working in a company well. Keep fighting! It may be difficult to study at the beginning, but success is always beautiful at the end. ^-^
