The demand of systems engineers is soaring because the popularity of high-tech in the common industries. The pay is higher and a lot of opportunity for promotion. Most of them think their jobs is close to the human life and they like it.

The CPA and College professor careers are most popular for us. To get CPA you should take the test first and have 150 hours business and accounting classes. Also you need the job experience. The drawback is that you must figure out numbers everyday. During the tax preparation times, usually CPA are too busy to remember who they are.

Most of MBA students choose to continue study for Ph.D. They want to be a professor and teach in the college. The college professor is more free out of the teaching time and office time. They could decide their own time. The requirement is you must get Ph.D degree first and teach experience. But usually the starting pay of college professor is low.
The rank range of Business Analyst, sales director, human resounrse manager, marketing manager and so on are around 20- 50. They are still popular in America. Although salary is necessary, it is not the most important. If you do not like your job, you won't have a good prospect for the long-run. You like, you win. Interest is the key for career success.
