If you get an A+ in Biology you'll make a very fine full charge bookkeeper. That's the way things are these days. You see, the accounting firm of Erns & Young recruit from India while their American graduates are being ignored. I don't know.
I once did a relocation job for Erns & Young in Salt Lake City. I saw these young men who resembled feaures on Indian and I asked one of the ladies, who are those guys, she said they are recruit from India. Bo Ho! Bo Ho!

I do full charge bookkeeping, you don't start out with a companies total financial info in your lap, I would suggest starting out in either an AR or AP role to learn that, then go from there. Even with the education it is hard to get a job with out the real life experience. I am having a very hard time finding employment right now and I have reference letters....
Another good thing is to do the study course through AIPB and become certified in bookkeeping. Not an easy task, as there are like 4 2 hour test that you must pass.

Good luck
