Not only are their skills more valued than ever, but according to this report from Ajilon Finance, they will be among the most sought-after professionals in the marketplace for the foreseeable — if they stay sharp in four key areas: (1) hard skills and “efficiencies across all accounting and finance functions”; (2) soft skills like teamwork, patience and problem-solving; (3) mentoring the next generation of CPAs; and (4) increasing their presence in the market. Call it Ajilon’s recipe for CPA success.
