Hello, Ignacio,
Being an accountant can be very interesting at every level. You start by handling specific tasks like Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable, Fixed Assets, and Intercompany transactions. Then, you move on to understanding how everything fits together in the Financial Statements. Each step has its own interesting aspects. For example, reconciling accounts helps you understand what makes up the balance sheet accounts. You also get to solve different cases by applying accounting standards and tax laws. Personally, I enjoyed reconciliations because they felt like solving a puzzle. Each case begins with questions and then develops into a clear plan of action, which is very satisfying. Closing the books at the end of a quarter or year and knowing everything is in order gives me great fulfillment, as it reflects the true state of the business.
