Like many students in my field, I was hired following my internship at PwC, one of the ‘Big Four’ accountancy firms. The IAE prepares us very well professionally. Compared to business school graduates, IAE graduates have an equivalent level of general culture but a more solid knowledge on taxation and accounting because we begin to specialise from the third year.
In addition, from the first year we learn to be autonomous: we are not constantly monitored, so it is up to us to know how to manage our freedom and our time. At university, I acquired an organisational capacity which is really useful to me today as an executive, free to organise my activities provided that I meet all my deadlines.
