At the Accounting Society of Baruch General Interest Meeting I learned about the requirements and standards for each member of the club. Currently I plan on majoring in accounting and I understand that getting involved in as many accounting related clubs and activities will only help me in the future. The board members of the Accounting Society explained that it’s mandatory each applicant of the Accounting Society attend the General Interest Meetings, and attend a minimum of 5 voluntary events such as a walk in support of Cancer treatments or their annual Pajama day for unfortunate children. These volunteering events at the club help show future members that even though we are here for an education and to eventually land a job it is always good to give back. Big firms in today’s day and age understand that it is morally the right thing to help the less fortunate and the Accounting Society understands that too, that is why we help those who need it. In addition the Accounting Society has extremely impressive connections to firms such as JP Morgan, EY and many others. For my future these connections can help me get internships or even jobs. The Accounting Society of Baruch can help me assimilate with the Baruch culture during my first semester with the friends I make, more importantly it will help me in the future with helping me make connections with firms and future business leaders that are members of the club too. The Accounting Society at Baruch has additional events that help the members with their future endeavors, such as the Interview Workshop that is on September twelfth. Other events such as Resume workshops will help the members with acting correctly and appropriately at interviews and other official events. The endless opportunities at the Accounting Society motivate me to join and be an active member within this club.
