During my final year project, I led four male classmates to code a mobile app for KK Women and Children Hospital. This is by far the toughest obstacle that I had faced as we were required to learn a new technology and be proficient enough to code the app within a short timeframe.
Nevertheless, I told myself not to give up. Rather than be defeated by it, I fought hard and stayed up until the wee hours to watch online tutorials as well as learning through trial and error to get my functionalities work. Fast forward just 2 weeks before the deadline, I not only manage to produce the core functionalities but also improvised and coded out additional functions on top of the project requirements. This has not only taught me to be committed and focused even if the task on hand is challenging or difficult and has also taught me the importance of managing people in a business context which is essential in the accounting world.
In my course, I have also undertaken an accounting module which allows me to learn concepts such as income statements and this has fuelled my passion in accounting ever since. This experiences has support my choice of programme as I feel that as an accountant, not only do I need solid accounting knowledge but also soft skills such as leadership as well as communication skills which are of paramount importance.
Upon graduation, I would like to work as an accountant in an accounting firm where I provide key financial information to help facilitate business decisions.
Because of my determination of gaining valuable knowledge in the field of accounting as well as a strong background of IT and business, I am keen toundetake bachelor of accounting.
