As one of the first graduates of Department of Accounting and Auditing, I can say that our department has a wide scale. It is possible to take part in any of finance, economics, accounting, auditing etc. fields with the knowledge the University has provided us. My career planning started by performing a voluntary internship in the Financial Affairs Directorate at Izmir University of Economics before I finished school, and then working at PwC Independent Auditing and SMMM A.Ş. company and deciding which areas I wanted to focus on. Since I wanted to specialize in finance/economics, my job preferences were in this direction. I worked as a Finance Specialist in Medical Park Hospitals group for 2 years. Currently, I am working as a Finance and Treasury Manager in Medicana Hospitals group.
