Accounting remains one of the most in-demand career paths, but fewer students are enrolling in the field. Dick Dumont, chair of the Accounting program at Post University, shared his insights with OnlineU.com, explaining how this shift is creating a robust hiring market for graduates.
“It should be noted that there is a decline in student enrollments in accounting while the job demand is increasing. This has created a robust hiring market for graduates,” Dumont shared.
He encourages students to let their early coursework guide their career decisions, noting that introductory accounting courses provide a clear way for students to determine if accounting could be a meaningful and rewarding career for them.
