As an accountant there are many challenges that come into play and one major challenge affecting me is the tight deadlines. The deadlines are very strict and not negotiable at all. If you are late then you are late and you have to deal with the consequences that apply to being late. The tight deadlines make me rush things and because of rushing things I start to feel very stressed. No one likes to be stressed and in order to not deal with stress at my job I would have to overcome this problem. This is a huge problem because accountants have to work a lot of hours they have to work ’’at least 40 hours a week’’.(Career Cruising) Because of the tight deadlines, accountants have to work extra hours at there job. This is a difficult challenge to overcome and I have found some ways to overcome it. On major key way is to prepare myself before my deadlines. I have to get ready and finish all my work so it would not be at the last minute. I have to stay focused and organized so I won’t face this challenge at my job.
For my 2nd challenge that I face at my job is being able to stay organized. Organization is major success in this field of job. You have to deal with client demands and expectations and finish work on time. This is a huge challenge because is you don’t have organization you won’t be able to succeed in this career. Many things like taking care of clients and finishing work on time depend on your organization skills. You have to have a lot of organization and management skills in order to keep a client satisfied. If you fail at contributing these skills you would get fired and lose the job. In order to prevent failure at the job. I would have to overcome and make a plan that will help me fight this challenge. I would have to get organized and answer all of the clients questions and concerns at the right time and also finish my work on time by starting the work at early date.
