who works as an accountant

I am 54 years old and worked for many years as a civil engineer before moving to Germany. The analytical thinking, precision, and ability
to work with complex data that I developed in engineering helped me a lot in learning accounting. Thanks to these skills, I was able to adapt quickly to German standards and successfully build a new career
