MAcc#FisherMAcc, #MAcc, #AccountingCareer, #AccountingProfessionalsWhen I first started the MAcc program at The Ohio State University, I was unsure of several things. From career outcomes and course rigor to connecting with new people, I wasn’t sure what to fully expect.
Coming from a finance undergraduate background and transitioning into accounting, many questions surfaced early on. Would I need to complete an accounting internship before pursuing full-time roles? What would the recruiting process and timeline look like? And would I be able to balance all of this with my course workload?36521 min read

Full Time MBAcase competition, #FisherCollegeOfBusinessOne of the most talked-about aspects of an MBA program is case competitions. Most of these competitions are optional, requiring students to take the initiative to register and form teams. However, we had a mandatory case competition to close out the semester. While it was not graded, it offered prizes and the opportunity to represent our college at the national level, an incentive strong enough on its own.36482 min read

Full Time MBA#MBALifeOne thing business school keeps teaching me is that the most meaningful lessons often appear in places you do not expect. When I signed up for LeadX: Unplugged with Stuart Weitzman, I was simply curious. I thought it would be a fun break, a couple of hours of fashion talk, maybe a glimpse into shoe design, and a chance to see a few iconic pieces up close. And I did. Seeing the diamond-encrusted sandals once valued at nearly a million dollars and the famous six-inch heels felt like stepping into a small piece of fashion history.36461 min read
