    Accountants Make Better Business People Than Mba's

    Q: Do Accountants make better business people than MBA's? Or are Accountants just bean-counters? To register your vote, visit www.accjobs.com or www.accjobs.com/vote.php.A:Some do and some don't. Many CPA's don't see a value in getting an MBA: MBA may make a lot more sense for poeple with no accounting background. I got my CPA after an MBA so CPA still held value for me. Ron Todd may have a different opinion on that. You would have to look at the individuals and the individual situations. Generally the people who get MBAs are different from the people who get...

    Accounting And Finance Degree, Accounting Or Finance Major ?

    Q: Many accounting jobs I see ask for an accounting OR finance degree. Does a major in finance teach you enough of the specifics of accounting to obtain entry-level employment?A:That depends on where you plan to work in the future. Accounting is the only way to get the designation CPA, which opens more doors than it closes. If possible, shoot for a double major in accounting and finance. (Then ask for double the starting salary...;-) If you plan on just working in public accounting, then only accounting will do. IMHO, Finance major with and Economics minor is...

    Advice About Cne Training....

    Q: The course I'm thinking of taking is suppose to last about 6 months. They have graduated 120+ people. The cost is just under $4000. The completion rate is 95% and the first time pass rate (of the actual CNE test) is 97%. The course is one part lecture and alot of hands on. The salary I've been told for the RTP area is in the low 30s for just having a CNE-3. I plan on coming through this (if I do it) with a CNA-3, CNE-3, CNA-4 and CNE-4. It really sound almost too good to be true......

    Are Online Jobs For You?

    Online jobs are jobs performed over the Internet. They are also called telecommuting jobs or telework. More and more employers are willing to allow workers to have online jobs instead of insisting that all workers report to their jobs each morning. Online jobs often qualify as contract or freelance work, so employers are not always obliged to pay health benefits or overtime pay to employees who do online jobs for them. Online jobs also allow employers to hire people from all over the globe, essentially allowing employers to recruit on an international scale - and take advantage of lower salaries...

    Biological Engineering Shortage

    Q: The last I've heard, most graduates of biomedical engineering programs are usually not in demand unless they've also attended medical school.

    Business Administration Degree Jobs, Accounting: The Best Business Degree To Get ?

    Q: Accounting isn't a perfect field to work in. Ron Todd is correct when he says that accounting hasn't been a hot field for quite a few years. But I still believe that if someone goes to college, and wants to major in business, then accounting is still by far the best of the business programs to major in.

    Career Change

    These days, just about every person out there is unsatisfied with their current career direction. Most people do not even have careers; so much as they have jobs that keep them alive. Getting a regular job is fine for a young person who is just starting out in the work force, but it is not necessarily ideal for someone who is hoping for better than that. The different between a career and a job is that when you have a career, you love what you do and you are doing it because you want to and not because you need...

    Q: I possess a Bachelors degree in Chemical Engineering and am currently enrolled into a masters program in Chemical Engineering. I feel now that the scope and job prospects in this field are quite poor and so want to change in favour of a computer based field.

    Cleaning At Dental Hygiene School

    Q: Is it safe to have cleanings at a school (dental hygiene not dental school). I remember reading something about them being too aggressive and not yet being able to feel the difference between the tooth and tartar. Would it be safer to have them do ultrasonic vs. manual. i.e. is ultrasonic safer when done by hygienist students. They mentioned that cleaning should be done every 3 months. Is this true or a way for them to get more people on which to practice. Do they need x-rays to do cleanings. They requested x-rays or want to take them. Is...

    College Courses

    It used to be that in order to get a college degree the courses were either extremely long or far to short in order to be important to the field with which they were applied. College courses used to almost all the time require 4 long years of study in order to achieve a degree in the major that was chosen. However, since the modern era has acknowledged that people are generally busier than they used to be; and that some of the studies were revealed unnecessary in certain majors, many of the courses can be completed in 2 years...

    Gordon Ramsay's Anger Management Problem ?

    Q: "People like Gordon Ramsay are the reason for the rise in road rage and vicious assaults. Viewers see him doing and saying what he likes and abusing people and think they can get away with not controlling their anger.

    Interior Design Degree Online, Degree Vs Cert

    Q: This has been such a hotly debated topic in this NG, I thought I'd post a biased opinion from CertMag. They do have some good points, but I can only say that the best option is to do both. Chris. Computer Science Degree or Certification: Which Is More Valuable? At one time, a computer science degree was a ticket to a successful career in IT. However, those days are no longer.

    Making The Most Of Your Career Opportunity

    When opportunities to start or advance your career arise, it's tempting to jump in with both feet and snatch it up. That's not the best way to go about it. Instead, you need to plan, to prepare, and to know what you're going to do in your career before the opportunity presents itself to you. There's nothing worse than getting a great career opportunity and squandering it through lack of preparation; I know, I've done it at least twice. Before you grab that opportunity, before you even see the opportunity, there are several things you can do. First, repeat to...

    As we have now moved into the 21st century, we find ourselves in a global market. More and more companies are seeking educated and highly qualified individuals to accompany them into the future.

    Mba Rankings

    Q: I have read with great interest and amusement all of the hoopla surrounding Business Week's latest ranking of MBA programs. It is absolutely astounding to see how seriously MBA students and prospective students treat the results of what are clearly highly subjective rankings based upon unscientific surveys. Given the obvious deference that is paid to the popular media when it comes to evaluating the quality of management education, why go to any MBA program. Surely you can learn all there is to know about how to manage or run a company by reading either Business Week or US...

    Navy Sexual Harrasment

I seem to recall a couple of years ago the Navy tailhook scandal were it was charged that a large group of naval aviators were charged with sexual harrasment for improper conduct to other aviators and a few cocktail waitresses.

    All the books, educational videos, human sexuality courses, and even popular culture movies indicate it: men and women are different. But that doesn't stop the motivation to get them together, get them communicating, and get the two seemingly opposite genders enjoying equally the same experiences.

That is, female Viagra is a solution to a problem that might not exist as a...
