Business Insider tells the global tech, finance, stock market, media, economy, lifestyle, real estate, AI and innovative stories you want to know.
This as-told-to essay is based on a transcribed conversation with 23-year-old Sofia Javier, from New Jersey. The following has been edited for length and clarity.I studied accounting and data analytics at college. As a student, I saw the Big Four route as stable and structured, and our professors advocated for us to get jobs there.They warned that working these jobs and the transition from college to back-to-back meetings would be difficult.
I'd try to maintain professionalism in the workplace, but in private, I felt very emotional. When I told my parents about how I was struggling, they offered to help me look for new jobs.My accounting professors advised me to double major so I'd have something to fall back on, because they were aware accounting isn't for everyone.Leveraging my second major in data analytics, I started applying to other jobs in the summer of 2024.
